The cast of the Disney+ show High School Musical The Musical The Series — Matt Cornett (EJ), Frankie A. Rodriguez (Carlos), Joe Serafini (Seb), Dara Renee (Kourtney), Julia Lester (Ashlyn), Larry Saperstein (Big Red), Andrew Barth Feldman, Roman Banks and Olivia Rose Keegan — caught up with J-14 to talk all about season 2 of their show and some of the funniest moments on set. Check it out. Life-altering changes are in store for East High’s finest — both on and off the stage — in Season 2 of High School Musical: The Musical: The Series. After all, as showrunner Tim Federle reminds TVLine, “Nothing feels higher stakes than high school theater.” The premiere, which hit Disney+ on Friday, picked up with the Wildcats still riding high on their production of a certain movie-turned-stage musical, fully confident that the sequel would be their next show. Heck, Miss Jenn was already hitting up thrift stores in search of costumes. (“You’d think you could just find High School Musical 2 costumes at Old Navy, but no. It’s a period piece.”) That is, until she bumped into a former high school classmate (played by Derek Hough), a successful Broadway actor who’s in town to direct North High’s production of The Little Mermaid — complete with an on-stage water tank. Determined to best her former bestie, Miss Jenn abandoned her plans of staging another High School Musical, opting instead for an Alan Menken classic: Beauty and the Beast. Even though Miss Jenn ultimately put the kibosh on HSM2, the gang managed to get away with impromptu performances of the musical’s most popular numbers, from Ricky’s solo “Bet On It” to his bittersweet duet of “You Are the Music in Me” with Nini. And who knew “Fabulous” had so many harmonies in it?

Joshua Bassett and his High School Musical: The Musical: The Series costars had some big shoes to fill when the spinoff premiered in 2019. But the actor, 20, isn't worried about living up to the original cast in season 2 of the Disney+ series, which features his performance of "Bet on It," originated by Zac Efron in High School Musical 2. "I was a little bit intimidated that I was going to not do it justice," Bassett told Entertainment Weekly ahead of Friday's season 2 premiere. "But once I realized that I'm not supposed to be doing it justice and it's really just Ricky trying his best — I'm not trying to live up to Zac Efron's performance or Troy — then I was like, we can just have fun with this one," he continued. "But it was definitely a little intimidating at first," Bassett said. The singer and choreographer Zach Woodlee recreated Efron's dance moves from the 2007 sequel, which have since been meme-ified numerous times for public amusement. "Oh man, he does these weird hand movements, I don't even know," Bassett jokingly recalled of Efron's performance. "Man, he does some weird stuff, I don't know where they came up with that." "It was insane," he added. "It's such a random dance when you actually watch what Zac's doing in the movie, you're like, 'What are you on?! What are you doing?' It was interesting learning all that weird stuff but just a blast. I tried my best." Bassett plays skateboarder Ricky Bowen in the mockumentary series about students at the high school, where the beloved 2006 Disney Channel movie musical was filmed, putting on a theater production of the show for the first time. His character is part of a love triangle with Nini Salazar-Roberts, played by Olivia Rodrigo. Bassett has faced speculation about a real-life love triangle between himself, Rodrigo and Sabrina Carpenter after fans started sparking theories about Rodrigo's hit debut single "Driver's License."
