“After four years at East High, it’s time to graduate. This will be our final, endgame season,” series creator and executive producer Tim Federle wrote on Instagram. “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 fourth act with you all.”
Along with The Mandalorian, High School Musical: The Musical: The Series helped launch Disney+, which launched in November 2019. It is the longest-running and most successful Disney Branded Television series for the streamer to date.
Inspired by the wildly popular High School Musical movies, High School Musical: The Musical: The Series has launched notable careers such as Grammy Award-winning recording artist Olivia Rodrigo, Tony Award-nominated Julia Lester, singer-songwriter Joshua Bassett, who recently completed a world tour and Dara Reneé, who made her songwriter debut on the series and stars in the upcoming Disney+ Original movie Descendants: The Rise of Red.
The fourth and final season will start on Wednesday, August 9.
In season four of the GLAAD Media and Kids Choice Award-winning series, the Wildcats return to East High to prepare a stage production of the High School Musical 3: Senior Year movie. But in a meta twist typical of the series, plans are disrupted when Disney announces that the much-anticipated High School Musical 4: The Reunion movie will be shot on location at their beloved high school.
Franchise alumni Corbin Bleu, Monique Coleman, Lucas Grabeel, Bart Johnson, Alyson Reed and Kaycee Stroh play themselves, reprising their High School Musical roles, and the Wildcats will be extras in the film.
Season four stars Joshua Bassett, Sofia Wylie, Dara Reneé, Julia Lester, Frankie Rodriguez, Kate Reinders and Liamani Segura.
