Premiere Date for High School Musical 2 Set
It looks like the kids will have something else to look forward to in August besides just going back to school. Disney’s “High School Musical 2″ will be premiering on the Disney Channel August 17th.
Hal Boedeker at the Orlando Sentinel was given the opportunity to preview the movie and gave the following summary of the plot:
Still bummed that she was upstaged in the first movie, Sharpay (Ashley Tisdale) plots her revenge. She arranges for Troy (Zac Efron) to land a summer job at her family’s country club and tries to isolate him from his friends. He, however, brings his pals along to work at the club.
Undeterred, Sharpay tempts Troy with opportunities. He loses his way and alienates his buddies.
The movie will follow a similar format to the first, including an assortment of original songs. It will also throw some high school sports action in, this time including the baseball team.
Gary Marsh, entertainment president for Disney Channel Worldwide, says that the theme of the second movie will be “What’s important to me?” It will be about the struggle to find your own moral compass and then follow it, rather than just going along with the crowd.
As previously reported, “High School Musical 2″ will see a return of all of your favorite stars from the original movie.
Here’s a video of interviews with some of the cast:
