After two seasons in the halls of East High, The Wildcats of High School Musical: The Musical: The Series is back for a 3rd round of episodes this time…outdoors. From July 27, find Ricky, Nin, AJ, Gina and their friends for the rest of their musical adventures on the platform Disney+. In this case, we were able to exchange with the stars of the series!
“We can expect a big change this season. We have a new setting, new characters… but also the same: lots of singing and dancing. says Frankie Rodriguez (Carlos). “Everyone can expect the unexpected. I don’t think anyone is prepared for what this season has in store, so it’s really exciting!” Julia Lester (Ashlyn) adds.
In this 3rd season, the characters of the High School Musical series leave the corridors of East High School in Salt Lake City to head to Camp Shallow Lake, a summer camp in California. A wonderful regulator of the place, EJ will introduce his comrades to the joy of outdoor activities, night vigils, not forgetting to put on a musical show, of course: the success of La Reine des Neiges!
This new filming location was especially appreciated by the actors. “It was a very pleasant change. When I had free time, I would lie on the grass, do yoga or even meditate. It was really relaxing and comforting and I think it reignited a spark of passion in us for the show. “ says Joshua Bassett (Ricky).
“Shooting outdoors was really fun, especially in sunny Los Angeles. It feeds your body with happiness and joy, at least for me. I feel like I can’t have a bad time sitting outside in the sun.” Continued by Matt Cornett (EJ).
At Camp Shallow Lake, the Wildcats meet new people, starting with Maddox (played by Sailor Bell), Edge’s friend who comes to camp every year. “He works behind the scenes, he is the stage manager for the musical. He’s very confident and knows the camp, so it’s exciting to see the wildcats come in and shake things up. “ Julia Lester explains.
The boys share their cabin with Jet, played by Adrian Lyles. “He’s a mysterious bad guy, hard to pin down. He doesn’t seem to want to be there, but hopefully the Wildcats can change his attitude. “ Frankie Rodriguez reveals.
Fans of the series will also be delighted to find Sophia Wylie, Olivia Rodrigo, Dara Renee, Kate Reinders, Olivia Rose Keegan, Larry Saperstein and Joe Seraphin. So they will be well rounded to sing songs from Frozen, but also from the Camp Rock and High School Musical franchises and new original songs!
After a surprise visit from Lucas Grabel, who played Ryan Evans in the original trilogy, it’s now the turn of another special guest to meet EJ, Gina, Courtney and the gang: Corbin Blue, aka Chad Danforth in Saga.
A role that clearly strengthened the cast of the series, as Frankie Rodriguez tells us: “Oh my gosh, I tried not to bother him with too many questions about the original franchise, but he was so sweet and excited to be there! Julia Lester also has great memories of this collaboration: ” He has been a strong supporter of our series since the beginning. He’s also one of the first people to interview us even before the first season aired. He is very kind, warm And welcome, and he’s also one of the hardest working professionals on set.”
However, Corbin Bleu isn’t the only visitor to join the Wildcats this season. The team also welcomes Jesse Tyler Ferguson (Modern Family), YouTube star Jojo Siva, as well as Jason Earle, the unforgettable Jackson of Hannah Montana, who directs Camp Shallow Lake here.
Discover all of these new features in Season 3 of High School Musical, which airs weekly starting Wednesday, July 27 on Disney+.
