‘High School Musical: The Musical: The Series’ Preview

High School Musical: The Musical is different from most television reboots in that it acknowledges the fictional elements of the original films. Instead of taking place within the same universe, the series will take place at East High School in Salt Lake City, where the High School Musical films were shot. Miss Jenn, a new teacher, decides to stage a performance of High School Musical: The Musical for her first winter theater production, to celebrate the school’s affiliation with the original films.

Corbin Bleu, a star of the original trilogy, appeared at D23 to talk about the new series and how it honors what he and his co-stars did. “It has been over a decade since the original High School Musical movie,” he recalled. “It was the first TV movie to be put on iTunes. The franchise went on to win two Emmy awards and become a stage production. It was a wild ride. Today, the journey continues. Disney’s new streaming platform is going to be playing host to a brand new television series that is a reinvention of Disney Channel’s most successful TV movie franchise of all time.”

Executive producer and showrunner Tim Federle also talked about the series and the meta elements that it will be playing with. He explained that he wanted to go in a different direction as a means of paying respect to the originals films. “You don’t want to remake High School Musical because it’s still perfect,” he stated. “What I wanted to do was capture the real spirit of theater kids. So what if we cast real teenagers with acne? They’re not going to lip-sync, they’re going to sing live. It’s the real deal. The entire series is all about finding your tribe. A new generation deserves new characters.”
