The Iconic Series Returns for a Major Milestone
Two decades after a blonde wig and a secret identity captivated a generation, the world of Hannah Montana is officially reopening for business. Disney Branded Television has announced a must-see 20th-anniversary celebration, set to premiere exclusively on Disney+ on March 24. This highly anticipated special promises a heartfelt and nostalgic journey back to Malibu, honoring the series that reshaped youth culture and launched a superstar.
An Intimate Conversation with Miley Cyrus
Filmed before a live studio audience, the special event will be centered around an exclusive, in-depth interview with Miley Cyrus, hosted by chart-topping podcast sensation Alex Cooper. This conversation will offer a rare, intimate perspective on the creation of one of pop culture’s most iconic dual roles. Cyrus is set to revisit the music, moments, and memories that defined an era, sharing fresh reflections on the show’s enduring legacy and its profound impact on her life and the lives of millions of fans worldwide.
Step Back Onto the Set
Beyond the interview, viewers will be treated to a wave of nostalgia as the anniversary special brings some of the show’s most beloved sets back to life. Fans can expect to once again see the Stewart family living room and, of course, the legendary revolving closet that served as the gateway between Miley Stewart and her rockstar alter ego. The special will also feature never-before-seen archival footage, offering a brand-new glimpse behind the scenes of the global phenomenon.
A Lasting Cultural Phenomenon
Premiering in 2006, Hannah Montana quickly became more than just a television show; it was a worldwide sensation that redefined kids’ programming, fashion, and music. The Emmy®-nominated series launched Miley Cyrus into superstardom and spawned a massive multimedia franchise, including 14 platinum and 18 gold albums globally, along with two successful feature films. To date, the Hannah Montana catalog has amassed over half a billion hours streamed on Disney+.
Reflecting on the milestone, Miley Cyrus shared, “‘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. This ‘Hannahversary’ is my way of celebrating and thanking the fans who’ve stood by me for 20 years.”
Ayo Davis, president of Disney Branded Television, added, “‘Hannah Montana’ opened the door for so many fans to dream big, sing loud, and embrace every side of themselves. 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.”
How to Start Streaming Now
Fans eager to relive the magic can dive into the extensive Hannah Montana collection on Disney+ today. Then, starting February 19, a dedicated non-stop Stream will launch, featuring all four seasons of the original series, Hannah Montana: The Movie, and Hannah Montana and Miley Cyrus: The Best of Both Worlds Concert.
