Miley Cyrus offers fans the best of both worlds in a trailer for the Hannah Montana: 20th Anniversary Special

Miley Cyrus, or rather, Hannah Montana, is back! It’s been 20 years since the smoky-voiced musical sensation transformed into the character kids from across the globe wished they could be, and Disney is rolling out the red carpet for a nostalgia-driven celebration that’ll have you pushing a comb through your old wig and dancing in your cowboy boots. Are you ready for the Hannah Montana: 20th Anniversary Special trailer? I sure hope so, because it’s here, and it’s bound to bring on the feels!

What’s the new anniversary film about?

Here’s the official synopsis for the Hannah Montana: 20th Anniversary Special:

The Hannah Montana 20th Anniversary Special is coming to Disney+ on March 24! The special will celebrate the iconic series that defined a generation—exactly two decades after its Disney Channel debut. The special was recently filmed in front of a live studio audience and will feature an exclusive, in-depth interview with Disney Legend Miley Cyrus, hosted by Alex Cooper. The conversation will offer an intimate look at the creation of one of pop culture’s most iconic characters and the lasting impact the show and character have had on fans around the world. With heartfelt nostalgia and fresh perspective, Cyrus will revisit the moments, music, and memories that defined an era. Viewers will be treated to never-before-seen archival footage, while some of the most memorable sets from Hannah Montana are brought back to life—including the Stewart family living room and the legendary Hannah Montana closet. There will also be some familiar *notes* that find their way back into the spotlight…

What happens in the new Hannah Montana trailer?

In today’s trailer for the Hannah Montana 20th Anniversary Special, Miley Cyrus embraces her roots by becoming Hannah Montana and performing for a live studio audience of screaming fans. In addition to the live performance, she sits down for a candid interview and even reunites with her parents for a heart-to-heart that could bring on the waterworks.

Fun Fact: I was invited to the taping of the Hannah Montana 20th Anniversary Special, but due to prior commitments, I was unable to attend. It’s not like I’m some big Hannah Montana fan or anything. Disney would have wasted the seat on me, so I’m glad it likely went to a rabid fan. Still, I would love to see Miley Cyrus live, even as Hannah Montana. Have you heard Miley’s version of ‘Zombie’ by The Cranberries? It gives me chills.
