Miley Cyrus ‘working hard’ for ‘Hannah Montana’ 20th anniversary

In 2025, Cyrus, who rose to fame after starring in the Disney Channel original series “Hannah Montana,” said fans can expect something iconic for the show’s upcoming 20th anniversary.

During a new interview, Miley Cyrus confirmed that something big is definitely going to happen while also pointing out a key part of her appearance that could be an even bigger clue.

Speaking to Variety on the red carpet at a recent event, Cyrus kept mum about the “Hannah Montana” 20th anniversary special but assured her fans that she and her team were “working hard” on the plans.

When the interviewer pressed for a little more information, Cyrus, 33, said she couldn’t share any details. However, before walking away, she pointed out her new hairstyle – blonde with Hannah Montana-style bangs – implying that millennial fans who grew up with the show were in for a big surprise.

Cyrus’ playful moment with the red carpet interviewer thrilled her fans on social media, who flooded the comments with ecstatic messages. “Baby, you’re talking to Hannah Montana!” someone wrote, while another said: “You see the bangs. »

“It’s LITERALLY Hannah Montana,” another wrote before a fourth added: “The bangs and the new highlights oh it’s happening.”

“A GIRL THAT’S HANNAH NOT MILEY OMGGGG,” one social media user commented. “They better call it Hannahversary or I’ll be so annoyed,” someone else shared.

Cyrus has been teasing a plan of some sort for Hannah’s 20th birthday for some time. According to a previous report from The Blast, Cyrus rejected the idea of ​​someone else recreating the character for a possible reboot.

“I don’t know if there’s a new Hannah,” the “Flowers” singer said. “She’s the only Hannah.”

As she continued, Cyrus reflected on how important it was, as a teenager, to embody a character etched in pop culture history.

“For me, I love watching both of us grow, because it’s very rare that someone grows with their fan base,” she said. “When I was 15, I was looking and seeing 15-year-olds and now I’m a grown woman, I’m looking and seeing other adults. So what I want to do is honor the longevity of the relationship that we built.”

“Hannah Montana” debuted on Disney Channel in March 2006. Over five years, Cyrus starred in all 98 episodes of the series, appeared in a feature film and recorded five studio albums. Cyrus also performed her own concert, the “Best of Both Worlds Tour”, which included 71 stops and grossed $70 million at the box office.

In a previous interview with Ryan Seacrest, Cyrus gave a lot of credit to “Hannah Montana” for launching her career at such a young age. “Without Hannah, there really wouldn’t be this…me,” she said. “It’s so crazy to think that I started out as a character that I thought would be impossible to get rid of, and now it’s something that, when I walk into a space, is seen as that feeling of nostalgia or something that you have from your childhood. But now, I’m kind of integrated into everyone’s lives, like the character did.”

She previously wrote a heartfelt letter to her character on the show’s 15th anniversary, calling her the “rocket” who lifted her up and never let her down. “I am indebted not only to you Hannah, but to everyone who believed in me from the beginning. You will have my loyalty and deepest gratitude until the end,” she wrote.
