OMG, you guys. If you’re anything like me, you’ve been anxiously awaiting more details about the High School Musical: The Musical series ever since we found out that it would be created for Disney’s upcoming direct-to-consumer streaming service, which is set to launch in late 2019. Well, good news, fam! The first lead role has just been cast!
Joshua Bassett, who you may already know from his recurring role in Disney Channel’s Stuck in the Middle, will play the character of Ricky! Ricky is described as a, QUOTE, “cynical but charming high school junior who launches a bold plan to win back his ex-girlfriend Nini— by auditioning to star opposite her in the school’s production of High School Musical.”
That’s right, y’all! This 10-episode series will follow a group of high school students who are working to put on a performance of High School Musical for their fall production. As with any school musical, though, there will be a ton of drama offstage, and we don’t know about you, but we couldn’t be more excited! Plus, it doesn’t hurt that each episode will feature a new rendition of one of our favorite songs from High School Musical along with a brand new song in each episode as well.
Although we don’t know who else will be joining the cast alongside Joshua, it sounds like he’s going to be AWESOME. According to Gary Marsh, the President and Chief Creative Officer at Disney Channels Worldwide, QUOTE, “Joshua’s interpretation of the Ricky character was brilliant— funny, winning and, at the same time, uniquely vulnerable. The audience is going to love watching this charismatic young actor put his stamp on the next chapter of the High School Musical Franchise.
Also, it seems like Joshua is pretty stoked as well, saying, QUOTE, “As someone who was shaped by the cultural phenomenon that is High School Musical, I am thrilled to have to opportunity to continue to tell this story. Go Wildcats!.”
