Miley Cyrus, who is now known as an artist, burst into the limelight at a young age on the popular Disney Channel Hannah Montana with the series.
The series, which started in the United States in 2006, starred teenage Cyrus in the roles of Miley Stewart and pop star Hannah Montana, struggling in the whirlwinds of a double life.
The series became very popular and so did the film based on the series Hannah Montana: The Movie published in 2009.
Moisés Arias, the actor seen in the series, said recently For People about his experiences as a child star. Arias, seen in the role of Rico Suave, was 12 years old when the series began.
Rico is remembered in the series as a mischievous side character who got into a lot of trouble, often together with Miley Stewart’s brother Jackson (Jason Earles).
Arias, 31, told People how the show’s popularity has continued to this day.

– Every four or five years [mediassa] there are “Here they are now, Does it feel old already” articles. I think they’ve been around for 15 years. I don’t really remember a week when this wasn’t the case, says Arias.
However, Arias understands the series’ fans. He likes Hannah Montana also as a significant project for himself.
Since then, Moisés Arias has been seen, among other things, in the Fallout series. Picture from December 2024. PDO
– It was a meaningful time not only in the lives of viewers or fans, but also in my own life, says Arias.

The music of the pop star Hannah Montana also played a big role in the series. In addition to the film, there were concert tours.
– It was the craziest mix of television and live performances ever. I think the music really affects it, so you can’t forget it, Arias describes the series.
Like Arias, many of the show’s actors have gone on to work in the industry. Arias tells People that the cast of the series occasionally meet each other.
