Miley Cyrus admits she wants to bring back Hannah Montana
YES PLEASE! 🙏
Last updated 26th Aug 2020
She's one of the biggest pop stars on the planet now, recently dropping her amazing new single 'Midnight Sky', but it sounds like Miley Cyrus hasn't forgotten her Disney roots just yet, admitting she's ready to bring back the one and only Hannah Montana.
Miley portrayed the character Hannah Montana from the popular Disney show between 2006-2011, gaining two number ones and three top-ten soundtracks whilst playing the role of the teen idol.
Although new episodes of the show haven't featured on TV in over a decade, it sounds like Miley, who recently split from her boyfriend Cody Simpson, is ready to put her Hannah Montana wig back on...
Speaking on Carolina With Greg T In The Morning, Miley admitted, "You know what honestly, I try to put that wig on all the time.
"She’s just in storage collecting dust and I’m ready to whip her out," she continued. "The opportunity will present itself. I definitely would like to resurrect her at some point. I'll give you a moment to take in this unbelievably exciting news."
The singer continued, "She needs a big makeover because she’s kinda stuck in 2008, so we’ll need to go shopping with Miss Montana. And also yeah I’d love to do a series again. I think it would be hard for me to get locked into a sound stage for a couple years, but that’s sometime in the future and hopefully I’m directing it."
OMG! 🙌
Hannah Montana was a huge success for Disney, with the show spanning over 4 seasons and 98 epidoes.
The series focused on a school girl called Miley Stewart (Miley Cyus) who lived a double life with an alter ego called Hannah Montana. By day, Miley was a normal school girl, and by night she turned into a worldwide super star as Hannah Montana, with only a small number of her friends knowing her big secret.
Miley's dad Billy Ray Cyrus also featured in the series, playing the role of Robby Stewart.
Check out which other TV shows we would love to make a comeback:
Footballers' Wives
Broadcasting between 2002-2006, Footballers' Wives followed fictional Premier League football club Earls Park, as well as all of the drama from both the players and their fiery wives!
Bad Girls
Set inside a fictional women's prison, Bad Girls aired on ITV between 1996-2006 and featured some very famous faces, including Claire King and Debra Stephenson.
The Bill
First broadcast in 1983, police drama The Bill certainly proved popular, airing until 2010. The show focused on the lives and work of police officers and starred well-known actors such as Trudie Goodwin, Graham Cole and Mark Wingett.
Outnumbered
Although all of the kids from BBC sitcom Outnumbered are now grown up (Tyger Drew-Honey is now 26), we'd love to see a remake of the hilarious programme, which followed the lives of a mother and father who were outnumbered by their three children.
Of course, the mum and dad are now officially a couple in real life!
Don't Try This At Home
Who remembers sitting down in front of the TV on a Saturday night, watching on as Davina McCall helped members of the public take on tough and fearful challenges?
This needs to come back!
Sabrina the Teenage Witch
She was confident, funny, magical AND she had a talking cat. Sabrina made us all want to be a witch!
The show was also rebooted between 2018 and 2020 as a Netflix series called Chilling Adventures of Sabrina.
Ugly Betty
Believe it or not, it's been a massive 16 years since Ugly Betty last aired on our screens! The show, which featured actress America Ferrera, followed a character called Betty Suarez, who despite her lack of 'style', landed a job at a very prestigious fashion magazine.
Where The Heart Is
The British drama, which was filmed in the Yorkshire town of Skelthwaite, proved very popular with viewers between 1997-2006, showcasing the lives of a group of district nurses and their families.
It's a Knockout
It was stupid, it was crazy, but it was certainly fun! It's a Knockout started way back in 1966, but the show made a number of returns on BBC, Channel 4 and Channel 5!
The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air
We'd love to see Will Smith get back into his character alongside Carlton Banks, however we got the next best thing earlier this year, with the Fresh Prince reboot called Bel Air, which was released earlier this year where Jabari Banks played Will Smith.
Stars In Their Eyes
A true classic! Stars In Their Eyes, originally hosted by Leslie Crowther, first aired in 1990 with Matthew Kelly taking over in 1993. The show did make a return with Harry Hill in 2015, but it didn't quite take off!
The Queen's Nose
Who would have thought that rubbing a 50p coin would be so interesting? We used to love watching the adventures of Harmony as she used up her magic wishes.
Gossip Girl
Although the show was given a reboot in 2021 with a brand new cast, it didn't live up to expectations of the original series, which aired between 2007-2012.
Fun House
We used to love watching two schools battle each other in three rounds of madness. Bring back the gunge and Pat Sharp's crazy hairstyles!
Grange Hill
Despite being at school all day, we loved to come home and watch other people be at school. Strange. But gripping story lines and relatable characters had us glued to our screens.
London's Burning
Airing between 1988 and 2002, London's Burning documented the lives of a fictional London Fire Brigade Blue Watch at the fictional Blackwall fire station.
The Big Bang Theory
The Big Bang Theory was on TV from 2007 until 2019. The show centred around two physicists who shared an apartment, Johnny Galecki as Leonard Hofstadter and Jim Parsons as Sheldon Cooper, and their friendship with Penny, played by Kaley Cuoco, who lived opposite.
Game of Thrones
Game of Thrones lasted for eight seasons between 2011 – 2019. The show starred Sean Bean as Eddard 'Ned' Stark and Kit Harington as Jon Snow.
House of Dragons is the new prequel but we really wish we'd have gotten more (or another ending) to the original Game of Thrones TV show. Who knows, maybe when the last book is out they might make some more episodes…
In other Miley news, just hours before her new single 'Midnight Sky' dropped on Friday 14th August, the 27-year-old revealed she'd split from her boyfriend Cody Simpson, after 10 months of dating.
The pair, who have been friends for 10 years, grew closer and started a romantic relationship following Miley's divorce from Liam Hemsworth in 2019.
