Calling all nostalgia lovers and longtime fans! Get ready to dust off your plastic guitars, sparkly ballerinas, and your best Yeah, yeah, yeah… Hannah Montana is making a official comeback! Twenty years after experiencing the best of both worlds, Miley Cyrus announces the return of her iconic alter ego on Disney+.
Long before crowded stadiums, mullet hairstyles, and endless repeats of Flowers, there was Miley Stewart’s double life — a typical high school girl by day, and an undercover pop star by night. And according to the star herself, "without Hannah, none of who I am today would exist." Since the show ended in 2011, fans' nostalgia has never truly faded. Miley feels it too: "When I walk into a room, this character reminds people of their childhood memories." Now 32, the singer is determined to celebrate this Hannahversary in style.
"Back to where it all began," she shared on Instagram. The date to mark on your calendar is March 24, 2026, when the platform will air a special anniversary episode filmed live in front of a studio audience. The lineup includes an exclusive interview with Miley Cyrus, hosted by podcaster Alex Cooper, never-before-seen archival footage, and recreated classic sets—from the Stewart family’s living room to Hannah’s iconic closet.
In the teaser video, a Mustang pulls up in front of the iconic "Studio 9." The door opens, high heels hitting the pavement, with the camera low to the ground... Just a few seconds are enough to hint that the star is stepping back into the spotlight. Through this special episode, Miley Cyrus revisits the role that skyrocketed her to fame, reflecting on the double life of Miley Stewart and reopening the chapter of a series that debuted in 2006 on Disney Channel.
Nominated for Emmy Awards, the franchise has released 14 platinum-certified albums, 18 gold records, and two feature films. On Disney+, the catalog now boasts over half a billion hours of worldwide viewership. Described by Disney as “a love letter to fans,” this special episode will be complemented by a dedicated collection and a special stream combining the four seasons and spin-off films.
Two decades later, Hannah puts on the wig again… and steps back into the spotlight.
