You Won’t Believe What Musical is Featured in HSMTMTS Season 4!
We’re back at the D23 Expo for the big Disney+, Disney Channel and Disney Junior panel tonight and the news is pouring in! The first performers of the night: the cast of “High School Musical: The Musical: The Series”!
Expo Guests got a lively performance of “Love is An Open Door”, featured in the show’s currently airing third season as the Wildcats prep for their stage debut of the musical, Frozen. Check out some video below!
While Disney announced the return of the show back in May, fans all over the internet have been excitedly waiting to hear what the musical feature will be this season! Series stars Joshua Bassett, Sofia Wylie, Matt Cornett and Dara Reneé made the big announcement at Disney’s D23 Expo on Saturday.
Disney+ set up the announcement on social media. It’s Now or Never, Wildcats!

In a return to their Season 1 roots, Miss Jenn & the East High Wildcats will be staging a performance of High School Musical 3: Senior Year! But that’s not all that’s in store for High School Musical Fans. East High will also be the set for the filming of High School Musical 4: The Reunion and our favorite drama students will all be playing featured extras in the film.
You read it right…the cast of the tv show based on the movie, is doing a play based on a sequel of that movie, while a sequel of that movie is being filmed on the show based on the movie. TVLine.com called the situation “Super Meta” and we have to agree! High School Musical fans will likely go crazy for this set up.
Fan-favorite star Olivia Rodrigo has left “High School Musical: The Musical: The Series” to pursue her singing career but the big question is, if the High School Musical movie franchise is being portrayed to film a reunion, will any members of the real-life movie cast suddenly be making cameos at East High on the small screen? No word on that yet but it sure does feel like that would complete the franchise-circle, doesn’t it?
MickeyBlogger Greg is still in the Disney+ panel over at D23. We will keep you updated if more HSM news comes out!
