High School Musical 3: Senior Year will be the third installment in Disney's High School Musical franchise. It is scheduled for a theatrical release in the United States on October 24. Kenny Ortega returns as director and choreographer, as do all six primary actors.
Plot
Now high school seniors, Troy Bolton and Gabriella Montez are facing the prospect of being separated from each other as they go off in different directions when graduating from East High. Joined by the rest of their Wildcat friends, including Sharpay Evans, Ryan Evans, Chad Danforth, and Taylor McKessie they stage an elaborate spring musical reflecting their experiences, hopes and fears about the future.
Casting
An international casting call went out to find three new "Wildcats" sophomores, though it was later revealed they would be freshmen. This resulted in the casting of Matt Prokop, Justin Martin, and Jemma McKenzie-Brown. Director Kenny Ortega commented that the new cast members seemed to bring an overall positive atmosphere to the cast, crew, and production as a whole. McKenzie-Brown's character was originally reported to be named "Tiara Goal", though EW.com later confirmed her name was "Tiara Gold". McKenzie-Brown is not the only member of the new cast to have their characters name changed as Martin's character had originally reported to be named "Donny Fox", though it was later changed to "Donny Dion".
