Disney released the trailer for its “Hannah Montana 20th Anniversary Special,” and it’s everything and more than what we were expecting.
The special will feature never-before-seen footage, recreations of the show’s set, like The Stewart’s living room and Hannah Montana’s closet. Some iconic moments will also be revisited, and even some “familiar notes that find their way back into the spotlight,” according to Disney.
That means Hannah is going to perform, right?! We can only hope!! (She knows the fans need the live 2026 version of “Best of Both Worlds,” right?!)
The trailer shows Miley stepping into the living room wearing her signature blonde wig, dancing with her dad, Billy Ray Cyrus, who also played her dad in show, and a visit to Hannah’s closet with Miley and her mom, Tish Cyrus.
The special was filmed in front of a live studio audience, featuring an interview with Miley Cyrus, hosted by “Call Her Daddy” host Alex Cooper.
