High School Musical: The Musical: The Series is back!
The popular series starring Olivia Rodrigo, Joshua Bassett, Sofia Wylie, Matt Cornett and more will unveil its third season on Disney+ on Wednesday (July 27).
In season 3, the Wildcats pack their bags and head to Camp Shallow Lake, a sleep-away camp in California “where fellow campers are primed for an unforgettable summer ripe with romance, curfew-less nights and a taste of the great outdoors,” per Disney.
The third season will be Rodrigo’s last on the hit series, but her character (Nini) will receive a “proper sendoff,” showrunner and creator Tim Federle revealed in a recent interview.
“I think [Nini’s] ready to explore the world outside the halls of East High,” Federle shared with Entertainment Tonight. “And Olivia herself was having such a monumental explosion in the music industry that it felt like the right thing to, frankly, work with Olivia to say, ‘How do we get you out there into the world with us taking a little bit more of a backseat?’ Which we were all proud to do to support her.”
“And so this season it’s about trying to give her character a proper sendoff while also leaving room for other characters to really step into the fray and step into the spotlight,” he continued. “And personally, it’s a joy to see Olivia’s music explode in such a big way. It was so fun to have her back and reminisce on the beginning.”
The cast of High School Musical: The Musical Series includes Julia Lester, Dara Reneé, Frankie Rodriguez, Saylor Bell Curba, Adrian Lylel and Meg Donnelly. Jojo Siwa, Corbin Blue and Jesse Tyler Ferguson will also appear in the third season.
