Miley Cyrus is returning to her Disney roots, with the celebrated singer officially set to take part in the “Hannah Montana 20th Anniversary Special” on Disney+.
‘“Hannah Montana’ will always be a part of who I am. What started as a TV show became a shared experience that shaped my life and the lives of so many fans, and I’ll always be thankful for that connection,” said Cyrus. “The fact that it still means so much to people all these years later is something I’m very proud of. This ‘Hannahversary’ is my way of celebrating and thanking the fans who’ve stood by me for 20 years.”
The special will debut on Disney+ on March 24. It will be filmed in front of a live studio audience and will feature an interview with Cyrus hosted by Alex Cooper. Cyrus will revisit iconic moments from the show as well as never-before-seen footage and recreations of the show’s sets. Disney also promises that “There will also be some familiar notes that find their way back into the spotlight.”
“‘Hannah Montana’ opened the door for so many fans to dream big, sing loud, and embrace every side of themselves, which is why its legacy continues to shine across generations,” said Ayo Davis, president of Disney Branded Television. “Partnering with Miley on this special is a dream, and we want it to be a love letter to the fans, who remain as passionate today as they were when the series debuted almost 20 years ago.”
