High School Musical: The Musical: The Series Announces Final Season
Disney also announced a premiere date for the 4th and final season of the LGBTQ-inclusive show.
Sadly, high school doesn't last forever.
The Wildcats that we’ve come to know and love (minus Olivia Rodrigo, who left the show last year) are getting ready to graduate, and that means that this upcoming fourth season of Disney+’s terrific High School Musical: The Musical: The Series will be its last.
Series creator and executive producer Tim Federle announced the ending of the show on his Instagram.
“After four years at East High, it’s time to graduate. This will be our final, endgame season,” he wrote. “This show brought the most extraordinary cast – and crew, and collaborators – to my life. To the fans, who embraced our super-meta series: we ‘don’t not love you.’ We can’t wait to share this epic 4th act with you all.”
He and Disney also announced that all eight episodes will be premiering on Disney+ on August 9.
High School Musical: The Musical: The Series was one of the first shows announced on Disney+ and went on to win a GLAAD Media Award and Kids Choice Award. It stars Joshua Bassett, Sofia Wylie, Dara Reneé, Julia Lester, Frankie Rodriguez, Kate Reinders, Liamani Segural, Joe Serafini, and Saylor Curda.
In the fourth season, the Wildcast return to East High after a summer away, where they’re putting on a production of High School Musical 3: Senior Year. However, their plans are disrupted when Disney announces the long-awaited High School Musical 4: The Reunion, which will shoot at their school.
The show is bringing in HSM movie stars Corbin Bleu, Monique Coleman, Lucas Grabeel, Bart Johnson, Alyson Reed, and Kaycee Stroh in to play themselves while they film the movie.
We’ll miss you Wildcats.
