Now it’s hard to find someone who does not know who Miley Cyrus is. The famous actress and singer did exactly the project "Hannah Montana", whose actors became famous throughout the world. What was this teenage series about and what happened to the leading actors when they matured?
“Hannah Montana” (movie): actors. Miley Cyrus as Hannah
Miley Cyrus started acting in films quite early, perhaps because her father was an actor and had the opportunity to attach the girl to any project. At first, Cyrus played Kylie in the TV series Dock for two years. Then there was the movie Big Fish, and then Hannah Montana.
Actors in the project were selected long and carefully. First, they wanted to take the lead role
Taylor Momsen, then they considered the candidacy of Joanna Leveck. In the end, the thirteen-year-old Cyrus got the role: the girl was required to play a pop star, who performs at night under the pseudonym Hannah Montana, and in the afternoon attends school under the name Miley Stewart.
Thanks to the incredible popularity of the project about Miley Cyrus, the whole planet recognized. But this did not benefit the grown Cyrus. After the show ended, she tried in every possible way to destroy the image of a cute, smiling girl: she shot naked, put on provocative costumes, did on stage during performances of a pornographic movement, declared her bisexuality, and then, trying to surprise someone, talked about her pansexuality . The singer also made herself 18 tattoos.
"Hannah Montana": actors and roles. Emily Osment as Lilly
Emily Osment hit the screens even earlier than Miley. Until 2006, the films “The Third Planet from the Sun”, “Touch of an Angel”, “Children of Spies-1,2" and the sitcom "Friends" managed to enter her filmography. Only then the young actress was invited to the project “Hannah Montana”.
Actors Osment, Cyrus and Musso played in the project bosom friends and classmates. Osment got the role of Hannah's close friend, Lilly, who also turns into a celebrity named Lola Lafneagle at night. Lola plays rock and leads a double life, like her friend. A little later, the girl begins to meet with her friend Oliver.
Emily Osment was not confused after the completion of the project. She began a solo career as a singer and a year later even went on a tour of America. The girl continued to star in many films: “Spy Kids-3”, “Football Mom”, “Family Guy”, “Young and Hungry”. Emily is also developing clothing designs.
Mitchell Musso as Oliver
In the Hannah Montana series, the actors were predominantly teenagers. Mitchell Musso came to the project when he was fifteen years old. The young actor got the role of Oliver Oken - a friend of Hannah and Lola. When a young man finds out that his girlfriends have an alter ego, he also decides to start a double life: this is how Mike Stendley III appears.
The fates of Cyrus, Musso and Osment are very similar. All these guys took up musical art after Hannah Montana and continued their acting careers. Mitchell released his debut album in 2009. Musso also voiced one of the characters in the animated series Phineas and Ferb. Mitchell can be seen in the projects “Pete in Feathers”, “Yin-Yan-Yo”, “Two Kings” and “Funny People”.
Musso often mentions in interviews that he has close contact with Miley Cyrus and Emily Osment.
