Thousands of Aspiring Actors Audition for ‘High School Musical 4’

Date:

Over 5,000 aspiring actors audition for High School Musical 4.

Production for the upcoming sequel of the new Disney musical High School Musical is ramping up. After the studio announced that it would release a sequel to the hit TV movie that launched the acting career of Zac Efron, thousands of aspiring actors showed up to audition for a lead role in the upcoming High School Musical 4. According to a report from  Entertainment Weekly, the announced open auditions held at the Anaheim Convention Center last month attracted roughly 5,000 participants, who were even treated to a pleasant surprise when “High School Musical” alumna Corbin Bleu showed up and gave a pep talk.

Last March, Disney Channel President Gary Marsh described what “High School Musical” meant to the Disney corporation. “It embodies all that we stand for. As a way of continuing to embrace that heritage, we’re excited to announce ‘the start of something new’ as we launch a search for a new class of East High Wildcats to star in a fourth installment of the ‘High School Musical’ franchise,” said Marsh in a statement.

The audition was part of the studio’s effort to discover new talent who will appear in the sequel to High School Musical 4. 

It was earlier reported that the sequel will feature five new major characters for the sequel of the hit musical.

Out of the thousands who auditioned, only five will be lucky and given the chance to breathe life to any of the upcoming “High School Musical 4” characters:

  • Erin: She is described as a badass soccer player who always pushes herself to the limits and is the only girl on the team.
  • Derek: He is the bad boy from another soccer team whom Erin falls in love with. Despite his bad boy image, he is a soft-hearted family guy who teaches little girls dance lessons at his family’s dance studio.
  • Campbell: Despite being a hot soccer captain, he finds himself in disappointment after finding out that the girl he likes, Erin, wants to be with Derek.
  • Nathalie: She is an outgoing cheerleader and Erin’s BFF.
  • Tamara: She is East High’s former queen bee and a cheer squad member who will attempt to regain the attention that was given to her by everybody in the past.
