<v Speaker 2>Movie coming Yeah.

0:01:14.280 --> 0:01:15.600
<v Speaker 1>But I don't know.

0:01:18.360 --> 0:01:21.039
<v Speaker 3>We just know our listeners are dying to find out

0:01:21.080 --> 0:01:23.240
<v Speaker 3>about that new one, but we'll get into the first

0:01:23.280 --> 0:01:27.720
<v Speaker 3>ones first. What was your actual audition process for this

0:01:28.120 --> 0:01:31.760
<v Speaker 3>amazing movie that you ended up being the star.

0:01:31.640 --> 0:01:34.280
<v Speaker 2>Of When I was like, I had just turned sixteen

0:01:34.840 --> 0:01:37.480
<v Speaker 2>and I was auditioning and I said it like a

0:01:37.520 --> 0:01:39.679
<v Speaker 2>self tape first, and then there was just a bunch

0:01:39.720 --> 0:01:42.040
<v Speaker 2>of like chemistry reads, so like you go in person

0:01:42.120 --> 0:01:44.559
<v Speaker 2>and it was a bunch of addisons and a bunch

0:01:44.560 --> 0:01:47.160
<v Speaker 2>of z's, like all reading together and we're all being

0:01:47.200 --> 0:01:51.040
<v Speaker 2>mixed and matched and in like the waiting room, Milo

0:01:51.120 --> 0:01:53.360
<v Speaker 2>and I even if we were matched up with other people, like,

0:01:53.400 --> 0:01:55.480
<v Speaker 2>we were just talking to each other the entire time,

0:01:55.960 --> 0:01:57.360
<v Speaker 2>and so I think they kind of saw that and

0:01:57.360 --> 0:01:59.280
<v Speaker 2>then they paired us up together and then from then

0:01:59.320 --> 0:02:01.960
<v Speaker 2>on we were kind of like always paired. I think

0:02:02.000 --> 0:02:04.960
<v Speaker 2>there was like how many chemistry were I think there

0:02:05.000 --> 0:02:06.800
<v Speaker 2>was like three or four chemistry reads.

0:02:07.000 --> 0:02:07.200
<v Speaker 1>Wow.

0:02:08.800 --> 0:02:12.840
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, a really long, crazy time, but we just had

0:02:12.840 --> 0:02:15.880
<v Speaker 2>the best time. And yeah, so then when we got

0:02:15.960 --> 0:02:18.560
<v Speaker 2>past did which was so cool, we got to do

0:02:18.639 --> 0:02:22.600
<v Speaker 2>chemistry reads with all the BUCkies and the Breeze and

0:02:22.680 --> 0:02:25.400
<v Speaker 2>all of that. And I actually thought Trevor who plays

0:02:25.400 --> 0:02:29.919
<v Speaker 2>Bucky was the choreographer when I walked in. He was

0:02:29.960 --> 0:02:30.959
<v Speaker 2>just so incredible.

0:02:32.240 --> 0:02:34.880
<v Speaker 1>We talked to Trevor. We talked to Trevor. Trevor was

0:02:34.919 --> 0:02:37.280
<v Speaker 1>so much fun to talk. He is the best.

0:02:37.480 --> 0:02:40.400
<v Speaker 2>Oh, he's the best. He has such a contagious energy.

0:02:40.880 --> 0:02:44.000
<v Speaker 1>He was just telling us all about having to do

0:02:44.080 --> 0:02:46.560
<v Speaker 1>He's like, I have to jump through the giant poster,

0:02:46.680 --> 0:02:48.639
<v Speaker 1>like it has to be me. I have to do that.

0:02:49.120 --> 0:02:51.240
<v Speaker 1>So uh oh man. We had so much fun. But

0:02:51.600 --> 0:02:54.000
<v Speaker 1>now I have a question for you. So, as you're

0:02:54.040 --> 0:02:58.320
<v Speaker 1>reading for this, did you know that this was supposed

0:02:58.360 --> 0:03:01.560
<v Speaker 1>to be a television show? So first, had you heard

0:03:01.560 --> 0:03:04.360
<v Speaker 1>about this or did you know that this was just

0:03:04.400 --> 0:03:05.239
<v Speaker 1>a film franchise.

0:03:06.400 --> 0:03:09.280
<v Speaker 2>Well, yeah, when I was auditioning for it, like during

0:03:09.280 --> 0:03:12.280
<v Speaker 2>the Chemistry is we looked up there was. It never aired,

0:03:12.360 --> 0:03:17.919
<v Speaker 2>but it was a pilot in like twenty like twelve

0:03:18.000 --> 0:03:22.280
<v Speaker 2>thirteen something like that, And yeah, it was a pilot.

0:03:22.280 --> 0:03:24.840
<v Speaker 2>It was called like Zombies Verse Cheerleaders and it was

0:03:25.400 --> 0:03:29.320
<v Speaker 2>like Zeed Addison, Bucky Bonzo, like a lot of the

0:03:29.360 --> 0:03:32.160
<v Speaker 2>same characters and it was sort of similar concept, but

0:03:32.240 --> 0:03:34.200
<v Speaker 2>it was going to be like a musical TV show

0:03:34.600 --> 0:03:38.000
<v Speaker 2>And then it never aired. It was only a pilot.

0:03:38.440 --> 0:03:42.520
<v Speaker 2>And then years were spent in between trying to figure

0:03:42.560 --> 0:03:44.720
<v Speaker 2>out how to get the concept still greenlit, and then

0:03:44.720 --> 0:03:49.000
<v Speaker 2>it became a movie and it became zombies, so so wild.

0:03:49.040 --> 0:03:52.160
<v Speaker 2>So yeah, we found that out from the casting people

0:03:52.320 --> 0:03:54.560
<v Speaker 2>when we were there auditioning, and we were like, that's

0:03:54.560 --> 0:03:59.760
<v Speaker 2>so cool. But like Mitchell originally played Addison, which was

0:03:59.800 --> 0:04:04.000
<v Speaker 2>like so cool. Who else someone from Teen Beach Movie

0:04:04.040 --> 0:04:07.720
<v Speaker 2>as well played Bucky. Yeah, I'm trying to fill in

0:04:07.720 --> 0:04:08.960
<v Speaker 2>in Teen Beach Movie.

0:04:09.480 --> 0:04:12.960
<v Speaker 1>Yes, John DeLuca Luca, Yeah, John de Luca.

0:04:15.280 --> 0:04:20.760
<v Speaker 2>Hey, yeah. So yeah, it's such a crazy small world.

0:04:20.960 --> 0:04:25.320
<v Speaker 3>Yeah yeah, I mean, and what this was probably you know,

0:04:25.360 --> 0:04:30.440
<v Speaker 3>so we've got the High School Musical franchise. Now that

0:04:30.640 --> 0:04:34.560
<v Speaker 3>the the Channel is really starting to see the longevity

0:04:34.640 --> 0:04:37.720
<v Speaker 3>in some of these brands, and were you guys want

0:04:37.720 --> 0:04:39.400
<v Speaker 3>to I mean, you were definitely one of, if not

0:04:39.560 --> 0:04:42.520
<v Speaker 3>the first to sign on for Did you guys sign

0:04:42.520 --> 0:04:44.720
<v Speaker 3>on for at least a two A two picture deal?

0:04:46.720 --> 0:04:46.880
<v Speaker 1>Three?

0:04:47.000 --> 0:04:49.479
<v Speaker 3>There's a three? Okay, so you signed on for three

0:04:49.520 --> 0:04:52.440
<v Speaker 3>of them? How cool was that to know? Like at

0:04:52.440 --> 0:04:55.120
<v Speaker 3>this point right now, I'm signing on to something that

0:04:55.160 --> 0:04:57.400
<v Speaker 3>I'm going to be a part of for years now,

0:04:57.560 --> 0:04:59.280
<v Speaker 3>Like it's gonna be it's not gonna be a one

0:04:59.279 --> 0:05:02.599
<v Speaker 3>and done thing. Sure, we're going on for years. That's amazing.

0:05:03.400 --> 0:05:09.080
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it was incredible. I I think when we made

0:05:09.080 --> 0:05:12.160
<v Speaker 2>the first one, we really had no idea how it

0:05:12.240 --> 0:05:14.919
<v Speaker 2>was going to do, nor did I think Disney know.

0:05:16.480 --> 0:05:21.240
<v Speaker 2>So when it kind of, you know, became what it

0:05:21.360 --> 0:05:24.360
<v Speaker 2>has become and we kind of saw it all unfold,

0:05:24.760 --> 0:05:27.279
<v Speaker 2>I really don't think we had any expectations. Like we

0:05:27.279 --> 0:05:30.800
<v Speaker 2>were definitely very optimistic and hopeful, but I never in

0:05:30.839 --> 0:05:34.080
<v Speaker 2>a million years would have thought that any of this

0:05:34.080 --> 0:05:37.000
<v Speaker 2>would be happening. That we have filmed a fourth one,

0:05:37.839 --> 0:05:42.720
<v Speaker 2>Like what have no idea? So it's just been incredible

0:05:42.760 --> 0:05:44.640
<v Speaker 2>and so grateful. I'm so happy to have it a

0:05:44.680 --> 0:05:46.440
<v Speaker 2>part of my life for so long.

0:05:47.240 --> 0:05:50.279
<v Speaker 1>So now where we Okay, we know how you got

0:05:50.440 --> 0:05:54.560
<v Speaker 1>Zombies project when you're doing all the auditioning and you're

0:05:54.560 --> 0:05:56.520
<v Speaker 1>doing the chemistry reads and all that stuff, But what

0:05:56.640 --> 0:05:58.920
<v Speaker 1>got you into that room? How did you start in

0:05:58.960 --> 0:06:00.640
<v Speaker 1>the industry and how did you side this is what

0:06:00.680 --> 0:06:01.240
<v Speaker 1>you wanted to do?

0:06:02.120 --> 0:06:04.200
<v Speaker 2>Well? Since I was a kid, I grew up a

0:06:04.279 --> 0:06:06.320
<v Speaker 2>theater kids, so I loved theater, and I grew up

0:06:06.360 --> 0:06:11.400
<v Speaker 2>watching like Disney and Nickelodeon, and so I think I

0:06:11.480 --> 0:06:13.839
<v Speaker 2>just knew that I really wanted to do that. I

0:06:13.880 --> 0:06:17.000
<v Speaker 2>had also been auditioning for Disney since I was like

0:06:17.320 --> 0:06:19.440
<v Speaker 2>nine or ten, So I feel like I was always

0:06:19.520 --> 0:06:24.680
<v Speaker 2>like all the general casting calls and already I was

0:06:24.720 --> 0:06:27.440
<v Speaker 2>just like a part of that since I was really little,

0:06:27.600 --> 0:06:31.120
<v Speaker 2>and so I think I just always had audition for them,

0:06:31.120 --> 0:06:34.000
<v Speaker 2>and like in my mind, I guess optimistically, I was

0:06:34.000 --> 0:06:35.000
<v Speaker 2>always like, there's going to be.

0:06:34.960 --> 0:06:37.320
<v Speaker 1>One, Yeah, one that's right for me.

0:06:37.760 --> 0:06:41.080
<v Speaker 2>That's right for me, And it just happened to be Addison,

0:06:41.120 --> 0:06:42.239
<v Speaker 2>which is really cool.

0:06:42.160 --> 0:06:45.080
<v Speaker 1>Just happened to be one of their most one of

0:06:45.120 --> 0:06:47.119
<v Speaker 1>the biggest franchises in the history of the channel.

0:06:47.160 --> 0:06:49.640
<v Speaker 3>Is that what you're saying, for the perfect one to

0:06:49.800 --> 0:06:52.320
<v Speaker 3>just explode with? I love it? And then you had

0:06:52.320 --> 0:06:55.560
<v Speaker 3>already done or appeared in Sound of Music the live

0:06:55.600 --> 0:06:59.279
<v Speaker 3>TV special was that? So what would you say, was

0:06:59.320 --> 0:07:02.240
<v Speaker 3>like acting always your number one? Or was it singing

0:07:02.560 --> 0:07:04.880
<v Speaker 3>or you know, were you always are dancing? Were you

0:07:04.920 --> 0:07:08.039
<v Speaker 3>always hoping to do a triple the type thing or

0:07:08.839 --> 0:07:11.320
<v Speaker 3>did you get pulled towards one direction more so?

0:07:12.280 --> 0:07:14.400
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I mean when I was a kid, the goal

0:07:14.560 --> 0:07:17.680
<v Speaker 2>was always like Broadway in theater because I just loved theaters.

0:07:17.680 --> 0:07:21.240
<v Speaker 2>So I guess it's all kind of three and yeah,

0:07:21.320 --> 0:07:23.160
<v Speaker 2>and then when I was like eleven or twelve, I

0:07:23.240 --> 0:07:27.240
<v Speaker 2>just started doing like TV acting, movie acting, and it

0:07:27.280 --> 0:07:30.120
<v Speaker 2>was a challenge at first because I was such a

0:07:30.160 --> 0:07:32.400
<v Speaker 2>theater kid that like everything I did was.

0:07:32.360 --> 0:07:36.680
<v Speaker 1>Like energy futter energy works.

0:07:36.440 --> 0:07:41.000
<v Speaker 2>For Disney, but for everything else it was And so yeah,

0:07:41.080 --> 0:07:44.640
<v Speaker 2>I don't know if anything has been above the other ever,

0:07:44.760 --> 0:07:48.200
<v Speaker 2>But I think music is something that I really enjoy

0:07:48.280 --> 0:07:50.080
<v Speaker 2>and love, and that's why I love so much about

0:07:50.160 --> 0:07:53.160
<v Speaker 2>musicals or even just making music on my own. I

0:07:53.200 --> 0:07:57.840
<v Speaker 2>think having music involved in anything is just really special, awesome.

0:07:58.040 --> 0:07:59.960
<v Speaker 3>Like I have to ask you a little bit about dance.

0:08:00.240 --> 0:08:02.920
<v Speaker 3>It's like part of my blood. I feel like, and

0:08:03.280 --> 0:08:07.480
<v Speaker 3>this movies We've only watched the first one so far,

0:08:08.040 --> 0:08:12.640
<v Speaker 3>but is hands down my favorite choreography that's great, including

0:08:12.720 --> 0:08:15.280
<v Speaker 3>the movies that I was involved in, this is like,

0:08:15.680 --> 0:08:20.160
<v Speaker 3>hands down the best choreography. I loved it. So I

0:08:20.240 --> 0:08:23.560
<v Speaker 3>need to know, like what your experience was with either

0:08:23.880 --> 0:08:26.600
<v Speaker 3>with you know, the prepping before you even got this

0:08:26.680 --> 0:08:31.320
<v Speaker 3>gig and on set, how much like that energy, what

0:08:31.400 --> 0:08:33.520
<v Speaker 3>you learned from or what you felt like you were

0:08:33.520 --> 0:08:36.920
<v Speaker 3>helping others with what was your guys' like dance world

0:08:37.040 --> 0:08:37.720
<v Speaker 3>with this one.

0:08:38.640 --> 0:08:41.560
<v Speaker 2>Right, first off, you can't say that because Cheetah Girls

0:08:41.600 --> 0:08:45.680
<v Speaker 2>will always be the blueprint of everything site I grew

0:08:45.800 --> 0:08:48.040
<v Speaker 2>up on that that was like my favorite I dressed up,

0:08:48.280 --> 0:08:51.720
<v Speaker 2>I had like a cheetah tail and everything that I went. Oh,

0:08:51.800 --> 0:08:55.440
<v Speaker 2>I was obsessed with Cheetah Girls. So yeah, that's if you.

<v Speaker 3>that would be a first one. I've never seen.

0:09:01.080 --> 0:09:02.439
<v Speaker 2>A Cheetah tale.

0:09:02.800 --> 0:09:06.160
<v Speaker 3>I've seen the ears, but the tale, I'm like, oh,

0:09:06.240 --> 0:09:09.000
<v Speaker 3>I love it. I'm bumping it up a whole other notch. Wow,

0:09:09.520 --> 0:09:09.920
<v Speaker 3>I was.

0:09:10.120 --> 0:09:11.600

<v Speaker 2>Because we always ask I always say that because like

0:09:18.040 --> 0:09:21.640
<v Speaker 2>musical too, obviously, but I feel like Cheetah Girls was

0:09:21.920 --> 0:09:24.440
<v Speaker 2>like I watched it all the time. Also, like I

0:09:24.480 --> 0:09:28.120
<v Speaker 2>don't know if many people know, like Fuego, like the song.

0:09:28.600 --> 0:09:31.160

<v Speaker 1>Yeah, no.

0:09:46.880 --> 0:09:50.080
<v Speaker 2>I love like Cheetah Girls so much and and the

0:09:50.160 --> 0:09:52.720
<v Speaker 2>dancing in that movie is so incredible, and so I

0:09:52.720 --> 0:09:55.679
<v Speaker 2>think growing up, I really just loved dancing. I did

0:09:55.679 --> 0:10:00.160
<v Speaker 2>a lot of like theater dancing, so like moving I

0:10:00.280 --> 0:10:05.480
<v Speaker 2>was and uh, but I feel like on Zombies one

0:10:06.040 --> 0:10:09.720
<v Speaker 2>was when I first really got into like more like

0:10:09.800 --> 0:10:13.120
<v Speaker 2>hip hop dancing and just that kind of style, like I.

0:10:13.080 --> 0:10:18.400
<v Speaker 3>Think you're kidding, You're so good, there's no way you

0:10:18.480 --> 0:10:20.080
<v Speaker 3>hadn't been training hip hop.

0:10:20.600 --> 0:10:23.960
<v Speaker 2>Thank you. No, I mean like theater hip hop. But

0:10:24.440 --> 0:10:28.440
<v Speaker 2>the year before I started getting more into hip hop dance,

0:10:28.480 --> 0:10:34.000
<v Speaker 2>like in the city, and then it went into Zombies,

0:10:34.080 --> 0:10:36.599
<v Speaker 2>and then I was just surrounded by dancers and like

0:10:36.720 --> 0:10:40.160
<v Speaker 2>Chris Scott was our choreographer, who was just unreal, and

0:10:41.160 --> 0:10:44.240
<v Speaker 2>everyone because I was so young, I was sixteen, everyone

0:10:44.320 --> 0:10:47.560
<v Speaker 2>was so much older, like in my eyes older meeting

0:10:47.679 --> 0:10:50.560
<v Speaker 2>like mid twenties, which is not old at all, but

0:10:50.760 --> 0:10:53.480
<v Speaker 2>I looked up to them so much, and they were

0:10:53.520 --> 0:10:57.120
<v Speaker 2>all so optimistic and really pushed me a lot and

0:10:57.320 --> 0:10:59.600
<v Speaker 2>encouraged me to like keep going. And so because of

0:10:59.640 --> 0:11:04.640
<v Speaker 2>like that whole dance community in Toronto and Chris Scott

0:11:04.679 --> 0:11:08.040
<v Speaker 2>and everyone like it just really kept me going.

0:11:07.840 --> 0:11:10.679
<v Speaker 1>So well, if you love dance so much, I mean,

0:11:11.160 --> 0:11:14.839
<v Speaker 1>Milo was on Dancing with the Stars and tandlor and

0:11:15.280 --> 0:11:18.200
<v Speaker 1>and Sabrina dancing with the Stars. Do you see do

0:11:18.240 --> 0:11:20.000
<v Speaker 1>you see dancing in the star dancing with the stars

0:11:20.000 --> 0:11:22.040
<v Speaker 1>in your future? Is that? Is that something you want?

0:11:22.679 --> 0:11:26.840
<v Speaker 2>Okay? I if I didn't know, if I didn't like

0:11:27.320 --> 0:11:29.720
<v Speaker 2>go to the shows and be there behind the scenes

0:11:29.720 --> 0:11:31.920
<v Speaker 2>for Milo and Chandler, I would be like yes, but

0:11:32.040 --> 0:11:37.360
<v Speaker 2>like it is so stressful. Yeah, and like just seeing

0:11:37.400 --> 0:11:40.520
<v Speaker 2>like Chandler like specifically now, like going through her whole journey,

0:11:40.520 --> 0:11:43.880
<v Speaker 2>like she's so hard working and stuff. But like, oh gosh,

0:11:43.920 --> 0:11:46.160
<v Speaker 2>it's just so it's so stressful.

0:11:45.760 --> 0:11:49.320
<v Speaker 3>And like you love it though you you would thrive,

0:11:49.440 --> 0:11:52.040

0:11:58.400 --> 0:12:00.800
<v Speaker 3>just give her a call. She would love to have you.

0:12:00.840 --> 0:12:02.840
<v Speaker 3>I'm sure. Oh my gosh.

0:12:02.880 --> 0:12:05.640
<v Speaker 2>I'm a huge fan of it and I love and

0:12:05.679 --> 0:12:07.480
<v Speaker 2>I feel like I know so many people there now

0:12:07.559 --> 0:12:10.559
<v Speaker 2>because of like just knowing a bunch of people from

0:12:10.679 --> 0:12:13.880
<v Speaker 2>the show. But oh goodness, I don't know. I don't know.

0:12:16.160 --> 0:12:21.320
<v Speaker 1>I think you could do. It's so what now? You

0:12:21.320 --> 0:12:24.760
<v Speaker 1>you finished the first movie, which I'm sure the shooting

0:12:24.840 --> 0:12:27.640
<v Speaker 1>for this movie must have been incredible. We've talked to

0:12:27.640 --> 0:12:29.720
<v Speaker 1>some of your other cast members and talking about just

0:12:30.080 --> 0:12:32.320
<v Speaker 1>all the dancing and the singing. I mean, is a

0:12:32.400 --> 0:12:36.160
<v Speaker 1>ton of work going into this. The movie comes out.

0:12:36.679 --> 0:12:39.840
<v Speaker 1>How fast do you feel just the love of the

0:12:39.880 --> 0:12:42.080
<v Speaker 1>fans when the movie comes out?

0:12:42.400 --> 0:12:44.520
<v Speaker 2>Uh, super super quickly.

0:12:44.600 --> 0:12:44.840
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:12:44.880 --> 0:12:47.760
<v Speaker 2>I feel like a couple of days after the movie

0:12:47.880 --> 0:12:50.240
<v Speaker 2>came out. I feel like the first moment that we

0:12:50.360 --> 0:12:53.439
<v Speaker 2>ever were at least me and Milo were like, oh

0:12:53.559 --> 0:12:59.680
<v Speaker 2>my god. We did this like random like CD signing

0:13:00.080 --> 0:13:02.520
<v Speaker 2>Barnes and Noble at the Grove and we were like, oh, so,

0:13:02.640 --> 0:13:04.640
<v Speaker 2>like three people are going to show up and we're

0:13:04.800 --> 0:13:06.920
<v Speaker 2>gonna talk and like, dude, we're just gonna make it

0:13:06.960 --> 0:13:09.400
<v Speaker 2>fun whatever. And there was so many people there they

0:13:09.440 --> 0:13:11.679
<v Speaker 2>already knew the words to the songs. We were like,

0:13:11.880 --> 0:13:16.040
<v Speaker 2>we could not fathom. We couldn't fathom it. I they

0:13:16.040 --> 0:13:19.400
<v Speaker 2>can't fathom it. So I feel like that was the

0:13:19.400 --> 0:13:22.400
<v Speaker 2>first time that we were like whoa, Like this is

0:13:22.600 --> 0:13:27.640
<v Speaker 2>this is really crazy. Yeah, so I would say like that.

0:13:27.679 --> 0:13:29.679
<v Speaker 1>Moment as an instant Yeah. I mean, that's the thing

0:13:29.679 --> 0:13:32.720
<v Speaker 1>about we talk about the difference. So as we're watching

0:13:32.760 --> 0:13:36.880
<v Speaker 1>all these d cooms, we see that there's different versions

0:13:36.920 --> 0:13:39.760
<v Speaker 1>of the Disney dcom You got the mid to late nineties,

0:13:39.800 --> 0:13:42.120
<v Speaker 1>the Johnny Tsunamis and the Motocross and all that kind

0:13:42.120 --> 0:13:44.640
<v Speaker 1>of stuff. All those great ones brink and then you

0:13:44.720 --> 0:13:47.280
<v Speaker 1>come into the early two thousands, which leads into kind

0:13:47.320 --> 0:13:49.600
<v Speaker 1>of like the Cheetah Girls and the high school musicals

0:13:49.600 --> 0:13:53.080
<v Speaker 1>and stuff like that, where there's still no social media,

0:13:53.240 --> 0:13:55.120
<v Speaker 1>so it's kind of still word of mouth, but they're

0:13:55.120 --> 0:13:58.240
<v Speaker 1>doing eight or nine million, you know, views at a time,

0:13:58.679 --> 0:14:01.200
<v Speaker 1>and now you're in the social for media age where

0:14:01.640 --> 0:14:07.040
<v Speaker 1>it's just instant and everywhere. I mean, this is I

0:14:07.720 --> 0:14:10.000
<v Speaker 1>we joke that I hadn't heard of any of these

0:14:10.040 --> 0:14:12.800
<v Speaker 1>things before we start watching them. I knew what zombies, well,

0:14:12.800 --> 0:14:15.120
<v Speaker 1>of course I knew what zombies was. Yeah, yeah, so

0:14:15.320 --> 0:14:16.360
<v Speaker 1>it's everywhere.

0:14:16.520 --> 0:14:20.600
<v Speaker 3>I mean, especially you know during any time around Halloween

0:14:20.800 --> 0:14:25.160
<v Speaker 3>time when your guys is i mean the Halloween costumes.

0:14:25.200 --> 0:14:28.240
<v Speaker 3>Have you been able to see anyone just dressed up

0:14:28.320 --> 0:14:31.480
<v Speaker 3>like your character as I mean they I'm sure they

0:14:31.520 --> 0:14:35.800
<v Speaker 3>tag you constantly. But I saw a little itty bitty

0:14:35.840 --> 0:14:41.520
<v Speaker 3>one this last year for Halloween and it's so cute.

0:14:41.520 --> 0:14:43.840
<v Speaker 3>I mean the bright the bright wig, the I mean

0:14:44.280 --> 0:14:49.120
<v Speaker 3>everything was just like spot on and just adorable. How

0:14:49.240 --> 0:14:51.120
<v Speaker 3>is that like that? How do you feel about that

0:14:51.160 --> 0:14:54.479
<v Speaker 3>with like, I mean, it's perfect for costuming.

0:14:55.400 --> 0:14:58.320
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's it's the most surreal thing. I think seeing

0:14:58.840 --> 0:15:02.000
<v Speaker 2>kids dressed up as these characters is just like it's

0:15:02.040 --> 0:15:06.160
<v Speaker 2>another thing, like another level that's just really unfathomable. And

0:15:06.880 --> 0:15:09.760
<v Speaker 2>just social media in general too, It's just like you

0:15:09.840 --> 0:15:12.120
<v Speaker 2>never know what's gonna pop up or what's gonna come

0:15:12.200 --> 0:15:14.800
<v Speaker 2>up again, because things from like years and years ago

0:15:14.840 --> 0:15:16.880
<v Speaker 2>will just start trending and it just becomes like a

0:15:16.920 --> 0:15:21.240
<v Speaker 2>new phenomenon and so like like randomly, like songs from

0:15:21.240 --> 0:15:23.240
<v Speaker 2>like the first one, we'll just like come up again

0:15:23.280 --> 0:15:26.920
<v Speaker 2>and it's like wow, like that's so that's so wild

0:15:27.000 --> 0:15:29.680
<v Speaker 2>and it's just so nostalgic. But but yeah, like with

0:15:29.760 --> 0:15:32.480
<v Speaker 2>the fourth movie, like all the new young cast members,

0:15:32.520 --> 0:15:36.480
<v Speaker 2>like they're all a generation below me, and all they

0:15:36.520 --> 0:15:39.440
<v Speaker 2>do is post on social media and TikTok and whatever.

0:15:39.520 --> 0:15:43.280
<v Speaker 2>So I feel like fans already know them and are

0:15:43.400 --> 0:15:45.240
<v Speaker 2>rooting for them and excited for them to be in

0:15:45.320 --> 0:15:48.440
<v Speaker 2>Zombies four and they haven't even seen the movie yet,

0:15:48.480 --> 0:15:50.800
<v Speaker 2>and it's like, it's so surreal because like that just

0:15:51.080 --> 0:15:53.760
<v Speaker 2>when we're doing the first Zombies, like that was not

0:15:53.960 --> 0:15:58.440
<v Speaker 2>a thing at all. It's a really wild change and

0:15:58.480 --> 0:16:01.040
<v Speaker 2>shift to see. But it's really cool. It's awesome. I'm

0:16:01.040 --> 0:16:03.720
<v Speaker 2>so happy for the new kids. They're having so much fun.

0:16:04.040 --> 0:16:06.480
<v Speaker 3>Yeah. So are you now feeling because you were saying

0:16:06.600 --> 0:16:09.880
<v Speaker 3>in the beginning you were you know, even though twenty two,

0:16:10.080 --> 0:16:13.680
<v Speaker 3>mid mid twenties is not anywhere near being old, but

0:16:13.760 --> 0:16:17.440
<v Speaker 3>when you're sixteen, it does. It feels that's a lot

0:16:17.480 --> 0:16:19.680
<v Speaker 3>of life, that's a lot of experience, that's a lot

0:16:19.680 --> 0:16:21.640
<v Speaker 3>of jobs, there's a lot of different things that you

0:16:21.760 --> 0:16:24.280
<v Speaker 3>just don't feel like you've had. So I understand that.

0:16:24.400 --> 0:16:26.960
<v Speaker 3>But now are you feeling like with this fourth movie

0:16:27.040 --> 0:16:30.160
<v Speaker 3>that you've kind of taken that role on where you're

0:16:30.280 --> 0:16:34.040
<v Speaker 3>welcoming the new generation and the new cast and kind

0:16:34.040 --> 0:16:38.720
<v Speaker 3>of helping guide their way through their their their zombie journey.

0:16:39.000 --> 0:16:45.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, it's yeah, being on like the Zombies four set,

0:16:46.280 --> 0:16:48.040
<v Speaker 2>I feel like Milo and I were kind of like

0:16:48.080 --> 0:16:51.000
<v Speaker 2>we always call each other like grandma and grandpa, because

0:16:52.240 --> 0:16:54.880
<v Speaker 2>like in a lot of the scenes we in Zombies four,

0:16:54.920 --> 0:16:58.040
<v Speaker 2>we look like just kind of like like the old

0:16:58.240 --> 0:17:02.640
<v Speaker 2>like you know, grandparents. It's so key, but it was

0:17:02.720 --> 0:17:05.399
<v Speaker 2>really surreal. I feel like I was really emotional during

0:17:05.480 --> 0:17:10.479
<v Speaker 2>the rehearsals of Zombies four because seeing the kids so

0:17:10.640 --> 0:17:15.639
<v Speaker 2>excited and happy and nervous, like learning the choreography for

0:17:15.680 --> 0:17:18.679
<v Speaker 2>the first time and recording the songs and doing the

0:17:18.680 --> 0:17:21.000
<v Speaker 2>scenes that they were just so excited and had so

0:17:21.080 --> 0:17:23.600
<v Speaker 2>much energy and it was so new for them, and

0:17:23.640 --> 0:17:26.280
<v Speaker 2>it's like once the movie comes out, it's just gonna

0:17:26.320 --> 0:17:29.159
<v Speaker 2>like their life is just going to you know, change forever.

0:17:29.240 --> 0:17:32.000
<v Speaker 2>And I it really put in perspective of like that

0:17:32.160 --> 0:17:35.879
<v Speaker 2>was us on the first movie. Now they were like

0:17:35.960 --> 0:17:38.960
<v Speaker 2>asking us for advice and things to do, and I'm like, well,

0:17:39.040 --> 0:17:41.600
<v Speaker 2>I've always been the youngest and everything that I've ever

0:17:42.119 --> 0:17:46.040
<v Speaker 2>done in school, like everything, and so just to be

0:17:46.160 --> 0:17:48.640
<v Speaker 2>like an older kid now.

0:17:48.600 --> 0:17:50.840
<v Speaker 3>Is just like, yeah, you get to be the mentor.

0:17:51.040 --> 0:17:55.639
<v Speaker 3>And I'm sure these kids have like you were saying

0:17:55.720 --> 0:17:58.119
<v Speaker 3>to me, and how much it means to me for

0:17:58.240 --> 0:18:01.119
<v Speaker 3>you to be their inspiration of you know, going for

0:18:01.200 --> 0:18:06.040
<v Speaker 3>their dreams. In general is wild, you know, like, that's

0:18:06.200 --> 0:18:09.240
<v Speaker 3>that's amazing, and it's so awesome that this franchise has

0:18:09.440 --> 0:18:13.720
<v Speaker 3>given you the opportunity to see firsthand this next generation

0:18:13.840 --> 0:18:19.640
<v Speaker 3>of actors and performers that you inspired. That's incredible. That's

0:18:19.720 --> 0:18:20.400
<v Speaker 3>so awesome.

0:18:21.040 --> 0:18:31.719
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's it's really it's really really cool. Yeah.

0:18:31.760 --> 0:18:33.440
<v Speaker 1>So I have a question. I don't mean to put

0:18:33.440 --> 0:18:37.400
<v Speaker 1>you on the spot, but which one of the Zombies

0:18:37.440 --> 0:18:38.760
<v Speaker 1>movies is your favorite?

0:18:38.880 --> 0:18:42.399
<v Speaker 3>Ooh ooh. That cannot be the first time you've been

0:18:42.400 --> 0:18:43.520
<v Speaker 3>asked that question either.

0:18:43.960 --> 0:18:47.960
<v Speaker 2>No, it's really hard because so many good characters get

0:18:48.040 --> 0:18:51.400
<v Speaker 2>introduced as it goes on. So, like I the first

0:18:51.480 --> 0:18:54.600
<v Speaker 2>one will always be my favorite, but it's not a

0:18:54.640 --> 0:18:57.960
<v Speaker 2>reflection of all the people that get introduced, because the

0:18:57.960 --> 0:19:01.840
<v Speaker 2>werewolves are so amazing, all the aliens are amazing. Everyone

0:19:01.880 --> 0:19:04.600
<v Speaker 2>who's introduced in the fourth one are amazing, So it

0:19:04.640 --> 0:19:08.960
<v Speaker 2>has nothing to do with that them because they're also talented.

0:19:09.080 --> 0:19:11.880
<v Speaker 2>They add so much to the movies. But the first

0:19:11.920 --> 0:19:14.920
<v Speaker 2>one is just so nostalgic for me, and I think

0:19:14.960 --> 0:19:20.800
<v Speaker 2>it's just like such a great movie and I just love, like, yeah,

0:19:20.800 --> 0:19:23.200
<v Speaker 2>I just love everything about the first one. I think

0:19:23.280 --> 0:19:24.560
<v Speaker 2>just more nostalgic than anything.

0:19:24.960 --> 0:19:27.840
<v Speaker 1>Well it's not just for the younger generation too, because

0:19:27.920 --> 0:19:30.000
<v Speaker 1>I do another podcast called pod Mets World, and my

0:19:30.000 --> 0:19:32.119
<v Speaker 1>two co hosts on pod Meets World, daniel fishl and

0:19:32.200 --> 0:19:32.800
<v Speaker 1>Right are strong.

0:19:33.320 --> 0:19:33.760
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:19:34.119 --> 0:19:37.720
<v Speaker 1>Fight. We're fighting over which one could watch Zombies one

0:19:37.720 --> 0:19:40.800
<v Speaker 1>and Zombies two with us on this show. So they

0:19:40.920 --> 0:19:43.359
<v Speaker 1>like flipped a coin where Rider came on and watched

0:19:43.560 --> 0:19:46.240
<v Speaker 1>watch Zombies one with us and Danielle is coming on

0:19:46.280 --> 0:19:48.720
<v Speaker 1>to watch Zombies two with us. So this was one

0:19:48.720 --> 0:19:51.119
<v Speaker 1>where they were just like, no, no, no, you don't understand zombies.

0:19:51.160 --> 0:19:52.520
<v Speaker 1>And I hadn't seen it yet, so it's like, okay,

0:19:52.560 --> 0:19:54.040
<v Speaker 1>and I've been watching a lot of these like no,

0:19:54.160 --> 0:19:58.440
<v Speaker 1>you don't understand with Zombies it is. It's going to

0:19:58.560 --> 0:20:01.919
<v Speaker 1>change your life. So yes, the older generation as well

0:20:02.520 --> 0:20:04.280
<v Speaker 1>are loving the Zombies franchise.

0:20:04.359 --> 0:20:08.320
<v Speaker 3>They really are, and we everywhere. I've mad to make

0:20:08.359 --> 0:20:13.520
<v Speaker 3>sure because so Will is not necessarily a lover of

0:20:14.440 --> 0:20:17.560
<v Speaker 3>musicals in the sense of people just breaking out into

0:20:17.640 --> 0:20:18.040
<v Speaker 3>song and.

0:20:18.119 --> 0:20:21.199
<v Speaker 1>Never got how everybody just knew the words.

0:20:20.680 --> 0:20:22.080
<v Speaker 2>Yea, He goes.

0:20:21.800 --> 0:20:24.439
<v Speaker 3>Technical of when did they rehearse? How did they know

0:20:24.520 --> 0:20:25.200
<v Speaker 3>the songs?

0:20:25.400 --> 0:20:28.359
<v Speaker 2>Like, he gets very technically in my life better like that.

0:20:28.440 --> 0:20:30.879
<v Speaker 2>So no, I get it, I get it. I just

0:20:30.920 --> 0:20:32.120
<v Speaker 2>have to get it.

0:20:32.359 --> 0:20:34.600
<v Speaker 3>Yes, I know, I'm not exactly. That's where I'm at

0:20:34.600 --> 0:20:36.920
<v Speaker 3>with him. It's like, but you you'll see, You'll see.

0:20:36.960 --> 0:20:40.680
<v Speaker 3>And Zombies was the first one. I love this literally,

0:20:40.800 --> 0:20:43.560
<v Speaker 3>he was like, I'm a musical guy.

0:20:43.600 --> 0:20:44.760
<v Speaker 1>Now I get it.

0:20:44.920 --> 0:20:48.159
<v Speaker 3>I love it. You know it was done perfectly, it

0:20:48.480 --> 0:20:50.800
<v Speaker 3>was it, and I just I mean, you have to know,

0:20:50.920 --> 0:20:53.920
<v Speaker 3>like it's come, He's come a long way, and your

0:20:54.000 --> 0:21:00.960
<v Speaker 3>movie was finally the movie that got me to go, Yeah, changing.

0:21:00.680 --> 0:21:03.840
<v Speaker 1>Hearts and minds, Meg, changing hearts and minds. I love that.

0:21:03.880 --> 0:21:05.760
<v Speaker 1>And he is not an easy change.

0:21:05.880 --> 0:21:08.560
<v Speaker 3>He is a same just the same thing.

0:21:08.920 --> 0:21:10.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm I'm an old What do you want for me?

0:21:12.359 --> 0:21:15.000
<v Speaker 1>It's how it is? Can you can you walk us

0:21:15.040 --> 0:21:18.439
<v Speaker 1>through a little bit of the musical process when it

0:21:18.480 --> 0:21:21.280
<v Speaker 1>comes to recording the soundtrack, because I'm I'm trying to

0:21:21.280 --> 0:21:23.600
<v Speaker 1>figure out you've got to there's so many layers to

0:21:23.680 --> 0:21:25.679
<v Speaker 1>doing a movie like this. So you hear the music

0:21:26.400 --> 0:21:29.119
<v Speaker 1>and you've got to then choreograph dances to the music,

0:21:29.680 --> 0:21:33.680
<v Speaker 1>but you've also got to sing the music. So what

0:21:33.920 --> 0:21:38.120
<v Speaker 1>are you when you're yeah, are you choreographing to your

0:21:38.200 --> 0:21:41.520
<v Speaker 1>own voice singing the songs or is it a tempt

0:21:41.560 --> 0:21:43.560
<v Speaker 1>track at this point? Like how how does that work?

0:21:43.960 --> 0:21:49.640
<v Speaker 2>Sometimes so yeah, sometimes so I guess usually like before

0:21:49.720 --> 0:21:52.719
<v Speaker 2>we Go, because we filmed the three in Toronto and

0:21:52.760 --> 0:21:55.280
<v Speaker 2>then the fourth one in New Zealand, which was so cool,

0:21:55.400 --> 0:22:00.520
<v Speaker 2>oh man, But we like record some of the songs

0:22:00.560 --> 0:22:02.520
<v Speaker 2>in LA before we go, so we get all of

0:22:02.520 --> 0:22:05.280
<v Speaker 2>the songs and it's like there's a reference vocal on

0:22:05.320 --> 0:22:08.359
<v Speaker 2>it from the producer. So like most every song is

0:22:08.400 --> 0:22:12.879
<v Speaker 2>like different producers on it. Basically, it's so interesting. Like Disney,

0:22:13.080 --> 0:22:15.440
<v Speaker 2>once they kind of a script is sort of made,

0:22:15.680 --> 0:22:17.679
<v Speaker 2>they send out a prompt to a bunch of different

0:22:17.680 --> 0:22:21.040
<v Speaker 2>producers and they're like, make a song, and these are

0:22:21.080 --> 0:22:24.280
<v Speaker 2>the guidelines of the song, and it's like in the movie,

0:22:24.359 --> 0:22:27.439
<v Speaker 2>it's like the opening number, this character doing this, this,

0:22:27.600 --> 0:22:31.840
<v Speaker 2>characters doing this, and then a bunch of producer teams

0:22:31.880 --> 0:22:34.320
<v Speaker 2>will make songs and then Disney picks like the best ones.

0:22:34.320 --> 0:22:37.879
<v Speaker 2>So they basically like audition songs and then if you

0:22:37.920 --> 0:22:40.960
<v Speaker 2>get chosen, then you know, they pick it, and then

0:22:40.960 --> 0:22:43.879
<v Speaker 2>the cast will record it. All of that stuff and

0:22:43.920 --> 0:22:46.160
<v Speaker 2>then when we get to where we're going wherever we're

0:22:46.160 --> 0:22:49.639
<v Speaker 2>filming the movie. There's like four weeks of rehearsal and

0:22:49.720 --> 0:22:52.520
<v Speaker 2>then we shoot for six weeks. So in the four

0:22:52.560 --> 0:22:57.320
<v Speaker 2>weeks of rehearsal, like every day we're recording some songs,

0:22:57.359 --> 0:23:01.280
<v Speaker 2>we're choreographing to some songs, we're like fitting like it's

0:23:01.320 --> 0:23:03.840
<v Speaker 2>kind of just like a bunch of different things. So

0:23:04.119 --> 0:23:08.840
<v Speaker 2>probably not until week four rehearsal time will we get

0:23:08.880 --> 0:23:10.960
<v Speaker 2>like the tracks with our vocals on.

0:23:10.960 --> 0:23:15.120
<v Speaker 3>It, because they're like a like a finished track, yeah,

0:23:15.240 --> 0:23:15.800
<v Speaker 3>or even.

0:23:15.600 --> 0:23:18.800
<v Speaker 2>Like a demo with the vocals. So yeah, usually it's

0:23:18.840 --> 0:23:21.600
<v Speaker 2>towards the end of the rehearsal week. But when we film,

0:23:21.960 --> 0:23:27.040
<v Speaker 2>we're like singing along to the actual your vocals.

0:23:27.160 --> 0:23:30.760
<v Speaker 1>Your vocals, Yeah, they're like giant speakers just blaring the music.

0:23:31.680 --> 0:23:32.840
<v Speaker 1>Oh man.

0:23:32.960 --> 0:23:35.600
<v Speaker 3>Sometimes well I guess that's for the production thing. But

0:23:35.640 --> 0:23:38.000
<v Speaker 3>when if the music's ever on and you know, this

0:23:38.080 --> 0:23:41.080
<v Speaker 3>will from like probably like any kind of school dance

0:23:41.160 --> 0:23:44.520
<v Speaker 3>scene you did do, like it's really low or off,

0:23:44.680 --> 0:23:48.520
<v Speaker 3>and then you're just doing this Yeah, yeah, it's very awkward.

0:23:48.600 --> 0:23:51.280
<v Speaker 3>But for like the big scenes, yeah, they've got it blaring.

0:23:51.400 --> 0:23:53.520
<v Speaker 3>I mean they're trying to get they're trying to create

0:23:53.520 --> 0:23:56.720
<v Speaker 3>as much energy for the actors to do what they can,

0:23:57.200 --> 0:24:00.399
<v Speaker 3>which creates me or brings me to Paul Hohen we

0:24:01.000 --> 0:24:05.840
<v Speaker 3>love Paul. Please what was it like? What was your

0:24:05.840 --> 0:24:09.560
<v Speaker 3>experience with Paul? I loved every aspect of working with him.

0:24:09.880 --> 0:24:13.240
<v Speaker 3>He was an incredible director, great guy to just hang

0:24:13.320 --> 0:24:16.800
<v Speaker 3>out with, like after in between you know, in between sets,

0:24:16.840 --> 0:24:20.119
<v Speaker 3>offset and all that. Like, He's just amazing. What was

0:24:20.160 --> 0:24:20.879
<v Speaker 3>your experience?

0:24:21.000 --> 0:24:23.320
<v Speaker 2>That's so cool that you guys got to go to India.

0:24:23.359 --> 0:24:29.040
<v Speaker 2>That is just crazy. That's yes, No, Paul is is

0:24:29.080 --> 0:24:32.040
<v Speaker 2>the best. He is so great to work with. I

0:24:33.160 --> 0:24:37.160
<v Speaker 2>I loved him so much. He's so sweet, he's great

0:24:37.240 --> 0:24:40.400
<v Speaker 2>his like vision for just like editing and the way

0:24:40.640 --> 0:24:43.240
<v Speaker 2>he like sees things and the shots that he sees

0:24:43.280 --> 0:24:45.960
<v Speaker 2>are just like really really incredible and I just like

0:24:46.040 --> 0:24:49.119
<v Speaker 2>love watching the way his mind works in that way.

0:24:49.960 --> 0:24:52.840
<v Speaker 2>And he's just so sweet and gentle and also was

0:24:52.880 --> 0:24:56.040
<v Speaker 2>a huge advocate for filming in New Zealand. And I'm

0:24:56.080 --> 0:24:58.159
<v Speaker 2>pretty I have no idea, like I can't confirm, but

0:24:58.200 --> 0:25:02.320
<v Speaker 2>I'm pretty sure he's the reason why we shi oh

0:25:02.359 --> 0:25:05.520
<v Speaker 2>for sure go back for so long, and so for that,

0:25:05.800 --> 0:25:07.360
<v Speaker 2>I am forever grateful.

0:25:09.440 --> 0:25:12.640
<v Speaker 3>Oh for sure. I mean, shooting out of the country

0:25:12.880 --> 0:25:18.880
<v Speaker 3>definitely brings a lot of different obstacles. I mean even

0:25:18.960 --> 0:25:22.199
<v Speaker 3>with just like craft services, there's just different ways of

0:25:22.240 --> 0:25:25.680
<v Speaker 3>doing things, but they're all worth it when you get

0:25:25.720 --> 0:25:28.320
<v Speaker 3>to like actually have that experience of working out of

0:25:28.359 --> 0:25:31.560
<v Speaker 3>the country like that. And I can't imagine. I can't

0:25:31.600 --> 0:25:34.960
<v Speaker 3>wait to see the fourth because I can't imagine the backdrops.

0:25:35.000 --> 0:25:37.639
<v Speaker 3>And that's like Paul's thing is he finds these like

0:25:37.760 --> 0:25:41.520
<v Speaker 3>just incredible backdrops to work with, and you're going, how

0:25:41.520 --> 0:25:43.400
<v Speaker 3>did you find this? And thank god you did, because

0:25:43.440 --> 0:25:44.200
<v Speaker 3>this isn't gorgeous.

0:25:44.200 --> 0:25:46.280
<v Speaker 2>This is gorgeous, you know, I know, I'm sure you

0:25:46.280 --> 0:25:49.679
<v Speaker 2>felt the same way, like on the third movie as well,

0:25:49.760 --> 0:25:53.600
<v Speaker 2>like and on the second one too. That like even

0:25:53.640 --> 0:25:58.919
<v Speaker 2>though like like you know whatever, like the movie like

0:25:59.040 --> 0:26:01.639
<v Speaker 2>cost or whatever, the fact that like the background it

0:26:01.680 --> 0:26:03.440
<v Speaker 2>made it look like it was like a thousand million

0:26:03.480 --> 0:26:09.080
<v Speaker 2>dollars to the backdrop of like Barcelona or India or

0:26:09.119 --> 0:26:11.680
<v Speaker 2>New Zealand, like it just makes so much more. It's

0:26:11.680 --> 0:26:12.720
<v Speaker 2>like is this green screen?

0:26:12.840 --> 0:26:13.840
<v Speaker 3>Like what?

0:26:14.400 --> 0:26:17.760
<v Speaker 2>So it It just elevates the movie in like such

0:26:17.760 --> 0:26:20.480
<v Speaker 2>an incredible way, just because New Zealand is just like

0:26:20.560 --> 0:26:24.240
<v Speaker 2>its own character. Yeah, as well, it's just so beautiful.

0:26:24.320 --> 0:26:26.280
<v Speaker 2>It's so so.

0:26:26.359 --> 0:26:28.399
<v Speaker 3>I know for sure, if you guys were shooting on

0:26:28.440 --> 0:26:33.840
<v Speaker 3>the streets in Toronto, your fans would end up showing up.

0:26:33.920 --> 0:26:37.000
<v Speaker 3>Did you guys have fans that showed up in New Zealand?

0:26:38.080 --> 0:26:42.040
<v Speaker 2>Yes, they're actually like I bet, I bet when there

0:26:42.280 --> 0:26:44.639
<v Speaker 2>was Yeah, And also, I feel like New Zealand is

0:26:44.640 --> 0:26:48.120
<v Speaker 2>such a small community and like such a small well

0:26:48.960 --> 0:26:51.240
<v Speaker 2>just even the city of Auckland, Like I feel like

0:26:51.320 --> 0:26:54.520
<v Speaker 2>everybody knows each other so well, everyone's so nice and welcoming,

0:26:54.560 --> 0:26:58.320
<v Speaker 2>and so when things film there, like everybody, like everybody

0:26:58.320 --> 0:27:02.120
<v Speaker 2>in the entire city new that Zombies was filming there,

0:27:03.440 --> 0:27:05.840
<v Speaker 2>and so everyone just knew that we were there, so

0:27:05.960 --> 0:27:07.639
<v Speaker 2>like but they were so nice, like they would just

0:27:07.640 --> 0:27:10.240
<v Speaker 2>be like like we would just like walk around Auckland

0:27:10.280 --> 0:27:11.680
<v Speaker 2>and they would just be like, hey, like good to

0:27:11.680 --> 0:27:15.320
<v Speaker 2>see you again. And I'm like, say, everyone was just

0:27:15.400 --> 0:27:19.760
<v Speaker 2>so nice and welcoming. But yeah, people definitely knew like

0:27:19.800 --> 0:27:23.160
<v Speaker 2>the areas that we were filming at because it usually

0:27:23.280 --> 0:27:25.720
<v Speaker 2>productions kind of film in some of the same places.

0:27:25.800 --> 0:27:28.280
<v Speaker 2>So okay, yeah, it was.

0:27:28.200 --> 0:27:30.000
<v Speaker 3>So they're kind of they're kind of used to it.

0:27:30.119 --> 0:27:33.000
<v Speaker 3>Versus like I was thinking it. By the end of

0:27:33.040 --> 0:27:36.040
<v Speaker 3>your you know, six weeks of shooting, you've got like.

0:27:36.240 --> 0:27:38.879
<v Speaker 2>I love mine, like you know, like all.

0:27:38.760 --> 0:27:43.120
<v Speaker 3>That kind of like those signs kids everywhere, kids everywhere,

0:27:43.160 --> 0:27:46.640
<v Speaker 3>they're doing the dance moves outside, they're they're filming, posting

0:27:46.680 --> 0:27:48.640
<v Speaker 3>as much as they can on Instagram things like that.

0:27:48.640 --> 0:27:51.639
<v Speaker 3>I would assume, yeah, because you guys are just that

0:27:51.800 --> 0:27:54.439
<v Speaker 3>you're so big, so big, it's crazy.

0:27:54.640 --> 0:27:58.000
<v Speaker 1>What Now, this was this experience of doing number four

0:27:58.400 --> 0:28:01.000
<v Speaker 1>different than the first three because you're also a producer

0:28:01.040 --> 0:28:03.919
<v Speaker 1>on this film, aren't you? So did you have more

0:28:04.119 --> 0:28:06.760
<v Speaker 1>more duties when it came to actual production of the

0:28:06.760 --> 0:28:08.800
<v Speaker 1>film and helping kind of with the look of everything.

0:28:08.840 --> 0:28:09.520
<v Speaker 1>How did that work?

0:28:10.200 --> 0:28:13.800
<v Speaker 2>Yeah? It was so cool. We like Milo and I

0:28:13.880 --> 0:28:16.600
<v Speaker 2>were involved, like even before we left, like in the

0:28:16.640 --> 0:28:20.040
<v Speaker 2>casting of like All the New Kids, and like scripts

0:28:20.080 --> 0:28:22.040
<v Speaker 2>and like when we did the table read like we

0:28:22.119 --> 0:28:24.560
<v Speaker 2>were involved in the table read notes and costumes, like

0:28:24.920 --> 0:28:27.280
<v Speaker 2>just anything that we could be a part of, like

0:28:27.400 --> 0:28:32.080
<v Speaker 2>we tried to be, which was just so cool. And

0:28:32.119 --> 0:28:34.520
<v Speaker 2>I'm really grateful to Disney for that, for allowing us

0:28:34.560 --> 0:28:37.760
<v Speaker 2>to be a part of that, because it just seeing

0:28:37.800 --> 0:28:40.240
<v Speaker 2>the other side of things. It's just like even as

0:28:40.240 --> 0:28:42.200
<v Speaker 2>like an actor or something, it makes things way less

0:28:42.240 --> 0:28:44.960
<v Speaker 2>daunting because it's like, Okay, all these people don't actually

0:28:45.000 --> 0:28:50.400
<v Speaker 2>hate me. Everything's O day. Especially in casting. Oh my gosh,

0:28:50.440 --> 0:28:52.760
<v Speaker 2>Like being a part of those auditions, Like I think

0:28:52.760 --> 0:28:55.280
<v Speaker 2>I was more nervous than the kids were. It's like

0:28:55.360 --> 0:28:58.960
<v Speaker 2>cause you just know the feeling so well, it's just crazy.

0:28:59.760 --> 0:28:59.960
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:29:00.040 --> 0:29:01.520
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, so it was. It was really cool to be

0:29:01.720 --> 0:29:04.320
<v Speaker 2>a part of that side of things. And it also

0:29:04.400 --> 0:29:06.760
<v Speaker 2>was just different because we were in a new place

0:29:07.200 --> 0:29:10.960
<v Speaker 2>and also only Kylie, Chandler, Milo and I were from

0:29:11.000 --> 0:29:13.800
<v Speaker 2>the other movies, like everybody else was new. And also

0:29:14.040 --> 0:29:16.800
<v Speaker 2>I was younger, like even the dance dancers most of

0:29:16.800 --> 0:29:19.840
<v Speaker 2>them were like eighteen. So there was just a lot

0:29:19.960 --> 0:29:22.840
<v Speaker 2>of people that were just new. So it just kind

0:29:22.840 --> 0:29:26.760
<v Speaker 2>of made it its own new movie. Yeah, wow wow.

0:29:27.200 --> 0:29:30.800
<v Speaker 1>Can can you tell us anything about the fourth one?

0:29:30.840 --> 0:29:33.360
<v Speaker 1>Can you give us? Give us just a little something

0:29:33.400 --> 0:29:35.400
<v Speaker 1>we don't want, We don't want, you don't want anyone,

0:29:35.640 --> 0:29:37.560
<v Speaker 1>We don't want the House and Mouse coming after everybody,

0:29:37.600 --> 0:29:41.200
<v Speaker 1>we know their reach, But just anything that you can

0:29:41.280 --> 0:29:43.160
<v Speaker 1>let us in on on Zombies four.

0:29:44.320 --> 0:29:47.880
<v Speaker 2>Well, I definitely can say, well, it's day walkers, which

0:29:47.920 --> 0:29:51.200
<v Speaker 2>are people who live in perpetual day, and then night

0:29:51.280 --> 0:29:56.320
<v Speaker 2>walkers that live in perpetual night. So the four of us,

0:29:56.360 --> 0:30:02.120
<v Speaker 2>like Kylie, Chandler, Milo and I or characters Willa, Eliza,

0:30:02.800 --> 0:30:05.160
<v Speaker 2>zed and I are the only ones that are going

0:30:05.240 --> 0:30:09.280
<v Speaker 2>to Mountain College. And so on our way back to

0:30:09.400 --> 0:30:13.720
<v Speaker 2>c Brook, we get involved with these new people. And

0:30:14.440 --> 0:30:17.640
<v Speaker 2>the last thing I'll say is, like what they're going through,

0:30:17.640 --> 0:30:19.760
<v Speaker 2>Like the discourse their people are going through is very

0:30:19.800 --> 0:30:24.120
<v Speaker 2>similar to zombies one. So okay, have some advice to

0:30:24.200 --> 0:30:25.360
<v Speaker 2>help these kids out.

0:30:26.760 --> 0:30:29.320
<v Speaker 3>I have a question of the first movie that was

0:30:29.400 --> 0:30:33.160
<v Speaker 3>never quite answered, and we haven't seen their second or

0:30:33.160 --> 0:30:35.760
<v Speaker 3>third again, so don't forget that we have not seen

0:30:35.800 --> 0:30:39.320
<v Speaker 3>them yet. Your mom in the first movie, and Will's

0:30:39.320 --> 0:30:40.840
<v Speaker 3>got a crack up because I just can't get away.

0:30:40.880 --> 0:30:44.800
<v Speaker 3>I know your mom in the first movie has a

0:30:44.800 --> 0:30:48.320
<v Speaker 3>wig on? Was that for any reason? Do we get

0:30:48.400 --> 0:30:50.719
<v Speaker 3>to find out what that? Why that is in the

0:30:50.720 --> 0:30:53.480
<v Speaker 3>second or third or maybe fourth movie?

0:30:53.960 --> 0:30:58.719
<v Speaker 2>No, No, you find out why. Okaually I'm the first one.

0:30:58.760 --> 0:31:02.200
<v Speaker 2>Like it's so funny becauseuse genuinely she was wearing a

0:31:02.200 --> 0:31:04.880
<v Speaker 2>wig just because, like just to make her hair look

0:31:04.960 --> 0:31:09.520
<v Speaker 2>more like perfect, like Seabrook perfect. But then actually, as

0:31:09.560 --> 0:31:12.080
<v Speaker 2>the movies went on, there's actually a reason why she's.

0:31:12.040 --> 0:31:16.440
<v Speaker 3>Okay, okay, So it was so it was not it

0:31:16.520 --> 0:31:19.680
<v Speaker 3>was not set there in the beginning. She was just

0:31:19.760 --> 0:31:22.200
<v Speaker 3>doing it. She was just doing it to brighten her

0:31:22.240 --> 0:31:24.640
<v Speaker 3>hair or like make it look more perfect.

0:31:25.440 --> 0:31:28.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, because they actually were going to put that storyline

0:31:28.080 --> 0:31:30.360
<v Speaker 2>in the first one, and then in the second one

0:31:30.400 --> 0:31:31.880
<v Speaker 2>they were like, oh, we're getting rid of it, and

0:31:31.880 --> 0:31:33.200
<v Speaker 2>then they brought it back in the pin.

0:31:38.080 --> 0:31:41.120
<v Speaker 3>Thank you because I clocked the wig. I was like,

0:31:41.200 --> 0:31:44.320
<v Speaker 3>that is definitely a wig. But they never explained why

0:31:44.400 --> 0:31:47.320
<v Speaker 3>mom is wearing a wig? Is this or is it

0:31:47.440 --> 0:31:49.959
<v Speaker 3>just that she had like a wig on just like

0:31:50.000 --> 0:31:50.760
<v Speaker 3>for no reason.

0:31:58.080 --> 0:32:02.040
<v Speaker 1>We have one more question when it comes to pop Yeah,

0:32:02.080 --> 0:32:04.080
<v Speaker 1>that we'd like to hear. So d twenty three, they

0:32:04.120 --> 0:32:07.520
<v Speaker 1>announced that the stars from Descendants and upcoming Zombies four

0:32:07.640 --> 0:32:11.239
<v Speaker 1>are going to be going on a tour. Yeah, or

0:32:11.440 --> 0:32:14.800
<v Speaker 1>will people be able to see you on said tour?

0:32:15.080 --> 0:32:17.160
<v Speaker 1>Are you allowed to talk about whether you're going to

0:32:17.160 --> 0:32:19.480
<v Speaker 1>be on the tour? What's how does that work?

0:32:19.680 --> 0:32:23.360
<v Speaker 2>I actually don't know what they have announced or not announced.

0:32:23.440 --> 0:32:29.160
<v Speaker 2>I love okay, heard it your first I think it

0:32:29.240 --> 0:32:33.400
<v Speaker 2>might be possible, like there might be like some dates

0:32:33.440 --> 0:32:39.640
<v Speaker 2>possibly okay, firmed yet, But overall it is like the

0:32:39.680 --> 0:32:42.600
<v Speaker 2>tour is like the new generation of I think I

0:32:42.600 --> 0:32:46.400
<v Speaker 2>can say that is the generation of Descendants and Zombies,

0:32:46.440 --> 0:32:49.600
<v Speaker 2>but some special appearances.

0:32:49.880 --> 0:32:51.360
<v Speaker 1>Oh, you know, I get it.

0:32:51.960 --> 0:32:55.520
<v Speaker 3>I love it. I love it. I think that's amazing.

0:32:55.960 --> 0:32:57.880
<v Speaker 1>Well, it's also a perfect time to talk about your

0:32:58.040 --> 0:33:00.320
<v Speaker 1>other career. Well, I think it's all wrapped into but

0:33:00.400 --> 0:33:03.760
<v Speaker 1>your music career as well. Yes, And did Buy My

0:33:03.880 --> 0:33:05.680

0:33:06.240 --> 0:33:06.960
<v Speaker 2>Yes, it did.

0:33:07.080 --> 0:33:09.400
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, And so can you tell is this a new

0:33:09.400 --> 0:33:11.240
<v Speaker 1>album coming out? Can you tell us everything that you

0:33:11.280 --> 0:33:12.320
<v Speaker 1>know about your music career.

0:33:12.960 --> 0:33:16.320
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I've been wanting to make music for a really

0:33:16.360 --> 0:33:21.000
<v Speaker 2>long time, and I have finally, yeah, put out by

0:33:21.040 --> 0:33:23.239
<v Speaker 2>my Heart, which I really love a lot, and then

0:33:23.720 --> 0:33:26.520
<v Speaker 2>they'll have a new song out then. And I think

0:33:26.560 --> 0:33:28.880
<v Speaker 2>the goal, at least in the start of the year

0:33:29.000 --> 0:33:31.880
<v Speaker 2>is putting together some sort of like EP or something

0:33:31.920 --> 0:33:34.000
<v Speaker 2>like that and kind of going from there. I also

0:33:34.040 --> 0:33:36.680
<v Speaker 2>really want to perform live hopefully soon.

0:33:36.760 --> 0:33:42.600
<v Speaker 3>So yeah, nice, Okay, wow, okay, So, so tell tell

0:33:42.680 --> 0:33:45.280
<v Speaker 3>us a little bit about you as as an artist.

0:33:45.320 --> 0:33:47.520
<v Speaker 3>Since this is such a new thing and it's obviously

0:33:47.600 --> 0:33:50.120
<v Speaker 3>kind of in the works and you're progressing, where are

0:33:50.200 --> 0:33:54.880
<v Speaker 3>you finding yourself going, like genre wise and where do

0:33:54.960 --> 0:33:57.480
<v Speaker 3>you where do you want to see the style of

0:33:57.520 --> 0:33:59.600
<v Speaker 3>your music? Kind of venture too.

0:34:00.680 --> 0:34:03.920
<v Speaker 2>It's definitely still in the pop realm, but I feel

0:34:03.960 --> 0:34:08.040
<v Speaker 2>like my music taste is so eclectic that there's so

0:34:08.160 --> 0:34:11.160
<v Speaker 2>many different styles that I really like. I think right

0:34:11.280 --> 0:34:14.960

<v Speaker 2>I think is my favorite artist? Like wow, like every.

0:34:53.880 --> 0:34:58.160
<v Speaker 1>Day okay, Wow, I love that. Since we're getting off

0:34:58.160 --> 0:35:01.000
<v Speaker 1>on random topics, I have one more random topic to

0:35:01.040 --> 0:35:03.040
<v Speaker 1>talk about before and then we'll quickly go back to

0:35:03.080 --> 0:35:04.480
<v Speaker 1>zombies and then we'll let you go because we know

0:35:04.520 --> 0:35:08.040
<v Speaker 1>that you're busy. But so, can you tell us a

0:35:08.040 --> 0:35:09.799
<v Speaker 1>little bit about a show called What Would You Do?

0:35:11.320 --> 0:35:12.640
<v Speaker 2>Yeah?

0:35:12.680 --> 0:35:15.919
<v Speaker 1>So this is a hidden camera social experiment show, right, Yeah,

0:35:15.920 --> 0:35:18.279
<v Speaker 1>and the people are like put in really kind of

0:35:18.360 --> 0:35:23.239
<v Speaker 1>awkward positions. Yeah, yeah, what was was this? I mean

0:35:23.280 --> 0:35:25.160
<v Speaker 1>I have to use the word scary. Was this kind

0:35:25.200 --> 0:35:27.160
<v Speaker 1>of a scary thing to shoot?

0:35:28.120 --> 0:35:32.279
<v Speaker 2>Yes? There was always security on set, so it was

0:35:32.400 --> 0:35:37.279
<v Speaker 2>like so fine. But yeah, I did three episodes of

0:35:37.280 --> 0:35:40.400
<v Speaker 2>What Would You Do? When I was like fourteen or so,

0:35:41.040 --> 0:35:45.680
<v Speaker 2>And there's one where it was like the season finale,

0:35:45.760 --> 0:35:48.840
<v Speaker 2>and it's like me and two other kids bullying another actor,

0:35:50.640 --> 0:35:55.480
<v Speaker 2>but it's an actor that is playing like someone who's homeless,

0:35:55.920 --> 0:35:59.040
<v Speaker 2>and the experiment is like if these kids are like

0:35:59.280 --> 0:36:02.360
<v Speaker 2>bullying a homeless man, like would people step in? But

0:36:02.680 --> 0:36:07.320
<v Speaker 2>the clip has resurfaced online and people genuinely think, I actually.

0:36:07.080 --> 0:36:09.720
<v Speaker 1>Oh no, no, are you kidding?

0:36:11.000 --> 0:36:14.719
<v Speaker 2>Nearly it's so clearly fake. But so many people, oh

0:36:14.760 --> 0:36:17.680
<v Speaker 2>my god, like I can't believe, like you would do

0:36:17.760 --> 0:36:19.200
<v Speaker 2>this or like whatever.

0:36:19.360 --> 0:36:20.360
<v Speaker 3>Oh my goodness.

0:36:20.640 --> 0:36:23.400
<v Speaker 2>A lot of people like genuinely thought that it was me.

0:36:23.800 --> 0:36:27.160
<v Speaker 2>It's so funny anyway, So like that was one and

0:36:27.200 --> 0:36:29.839
<v Speaker 2>then I did like two other episodes as well. And

0:36:29.880 --> 0:36:31.879
<v Speaker 2>it is scary because if you have an ear piece

0:36:31.960 --> 0:36:36.040
<v Speaker 2>and and you're talking to real people, and sometimes the

0:36:36.080 --> 0:36:38.120
<v Speaker 2>producer will be like, oh, tell them to mind your

0:36:38.160 --> 0:36:39.440
<v Speaker 2>own business, and I'm like.

0:36:40.480 --> 0:36:46.759
<v Speaker 1>Oh my god, yeah gets slapped like yeah, wow, and

0:36:46.840 --> 0:36:47.759
<v Speaker 1>you're fourteen.

0:36:48.160 --> 0:36:49.840
<v Speaker 2>You were fourteen, Oh.

0:36:49.719 --> 0:36:52.760
<v Speaker 3>My gosh, wow talk about.

0:36:54.719 --> 0:36:54.919
<v Speaker 2>Yes?

0:36:55.400 --> 0:36:58.480
<v Speaker 3>Oh so three episodes and then what you were.

0:36:58.320 --> 0:37:03.400
<v Speaker 2>Like, I'm oh, yeah, especially at that age, like you know,

0:37:03.680 --> 0:37:06.520
<v Speaker 2>you're just auditioning so much. And then I wanted to

0:37:06.520 --> 0:37:08.400
<v Speaker 2>do like what would you do? So bad because like

0:37:08.440 --> 0:37:10.040
<v Speaker 2>a lot of my friends were doing it as well,

0:37:10.040 --> 0:37:12.240
<v Speaker 2>because it was filmed in like New York, New Jersey,

0:37:12.280 --> 0:37:16.200
<v Speaker 2>so it was like local as well. Yeah, it was

0:37:16.640 --> 0:37:20.839
<v Speaker 2>so funny and why And it's really interesting because some

0:37:20.880 --> 0:37:24.200
<v Speaker 2>people like as soon as something happens and the people

0:37:24.280 --> 0:37:27.279
<v Speaker 2>react like they have to sign something afterwards, but if

0:37:27.280 --> 0:37:29.799
<v Speaker 2>they don't sign it or they get really upset. Most

0:37:29.840 --> 0:37:31.640
<v Speaker 2>people got really upset because they're like, what do you

0:37:31.680 --> 0:37:35.160
<v Speaker 2>mean this is a prank? Like they get like like

0:37:35.280 --> 0:37:38.480
<v Speaker 2>those are the craziest moments, because I also did one

0:37:38.520 --> 0:37:42.040
<v Speaker 2>in like Portland, Oregon, where I was some guy was

0:37:42.040 --> 0:37:45.239
<v Speaker 2>trying to like lure me into somewhere and I was like, oh,

0:37:45.280 --> 0:37:46.960
<v Speaker 2>I don't know if I should go with you or not,

0:37:47.080 --> 0:37:50.080
<v Speaker 2>and then trying to see if people would come in,

0:37:50.120 --> 0:37:51.480
<v Speaker 2>and a lot of people got upset.

0:37:51.920 --> 0:37:54.719
<v Speaker 1>Yeah that could be I mean yeah, because I mean

0:37:54.880 --> 0:37:57.000
<v Speaker 1>you hear that. Yeah, that could end badly.

0:37:57.239 --> 0:38:02.719
<v Speaker 2>Need sense and like yeah, just sit there and be like, ah.

0:38:01.440 --> 0:38:03.480
<v Speaker 1>So you said New York, New Jersey. Are you an

0:38:03.520 --> 0:38:04.200

0:38:57.360 --> 0:38:59.680
<v Speaker 3>broiled it for like thirty seconds too long and it

0:38:59.719 --> 0:39:02.560

0:39:02.600 --> 0:39:03.640
<v Speaker 3>of making food and.

0:39:03.600 --> 0:39:08.800

0:39:12.840 --> 0:39:15.279
<v Speaker 1>do we know exactly when Zombies four is coming out?

0:39:15.800 --> 0:39:18.600
<v Speaker 2>We don't know exactly. It's definitely going to be summer

0:39:18.880 --> 0:39:19.439
<v Speaker 2>next year.

0:39:19.719 --> 0:39:22.200
<v Speaker 3>Okay, long, but but you long.

0:39:22.360 --> 0:39:24.960

<v Speaker 2>actually don't know like a specific date, but I know

0:39:27.760 --> 0:39:28.879

0:39:33.920 --> 0:39:35.959
<v Speaker 1>very happy to watch Zombies two with us too, which

0:39:36.040 --> 0:39:36.480
<v Speaker 1>is great.

0:39:36.520 --> 0:39:39.120
<v Speaker 3>We should be doing that probably soon, I'm sure.

0:39:39.280 --> 0:39:40.799
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, Well, we got to get on all the seas.

0:39:40.880 --> 0:39:42.759
<v Speaker 1>I still haven't seen Cheetah Girls too. I've got to

0:39:42.800 --> 0:39:44.400
<v Speaker 1>get onto all the sequels.

0:39:43.920 --> 0:39:45.920
<v Speaker 3>Now, and I'm probably I'm not gonna lie. Well, I'm

0:39:45.960 --> 0:39:49.040
<v Speaker 3>probably gonna skip in go straight to three before the

0:39:49.040 --> 0:39:51.080
<v Speaker 3>fourth one comes out of Zombies, I'm gonna have to.

0:39:51.160 --> 0:39:51.640
<v Speaker 3>I can't wait.

0:39:52.280 --> 0:39:56.759
<v Speaker 1>You're breaking the rules. There are no rules in the roles.

0:39:56.920 --> 0:39:58.240
<v Speaker 3>That is not in the contract.

0:39:58.280 --> 0:39:59.120
<v Speaker 1>No, we don't have rules.

0:39:59.160 --> 0:40:01.040
<v Speaker 2>You're right, there are no rus not to watch Cheetah

0:40:01.040 --> 0:40:01.560
<v Speaker 2>Girls Too.

0:40:02.280 --> 0:40:05.080
<v Speaker 1>I can't wait. Cheetah Girls one was fine until the

0:40:05.200 --> 0:40:07.279
<v Speaker 1>entire city shut down to save the little dog who

0:40:07.280 --> 0:40:13.000
<v Speaker 1>fell in the hole. That's when I was like, dude,

0:40:13.800 --> 0:40:15.839
<v Speaker 1>that and every time we're still We only have one

0:40:15.840 --> 0:40:18.360
<v Speaker 1>other name in Disney Channel history that's better than Jackal

0:40:18.400 --> 0:40:21.640
<v Speaker 1>Johnson at this point, and it's mister Fister. So there

0:40:21.640 --> 0:40:24.319
<v Speaker 1>we've got some bad Disney names coming out there. So

0:40:25.280 --> 0:40:26.160
<v Speaker 1>we can't wait.

0:40:26.560 --> 0:40:30.000
<v Speaker 2>I think you'll really like I think you'll really like two.

0:40:30.719 --> 0:40:34.279
<v Speaker 1>Cheetah Girls too or Zombies too, hopefully both cheat Girls?

0:40:34.480 --> 0:40:34.640
<v Speaker 3>Yeah?

0:40:35.080 --> 0:40:35.279
<v Speaker 2>Both?

0:40:36.760 --> 0:40:38.920
<v Speaker 3>Okay, the second one is my favorite?

0:40:39.080 --> 0:40:40.680
<v Speaker 1>Wait is the second one? The one where you do

0:40:40.760 --> 0:40:43.120
<v Speaker 1>the do you do the romantic dance you were talking about?

0:40:43.160 --> 0:40:43.359
<v Speaker 2>Is it?

0:40:43.440 --> 0:40:45.319
<v Speaker 1>Okay? Okay? So I've heard about that.

0:40:45.360 --> 0:40:45.480
<v Speaker 3>Oh.

0:40:45.520 --> 0:40:48.759
<v Speaker 2>I can also just the opening number of Cheetah Girls

0:40:48.760 --> 0:40:51.000
<v Speaker 2>Too is probably like one of the best Disney songs,

0:40:51.040 --> 0:40:54.320
<v Speaker 2>Like in history.

0:40:54.760 --> 0:40:55.920
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if I don't know if I want

0:40:55.920 --> 0:40:58.120
<v Speaker 1>to see Doe in a romantic situation, I don't know.

0:40:58.120 --> 0:41:02.320
<v Speaker 3>If it's not, it's so it's it is no Christy Carlson.

0:41:02.000 --> 0:41:07.239
<v Speaker 1>Romanos was just making out with him Stevens.

0:41:08.600 --> 0:41:11.040
<v Speaker 3>Right, and for the craziest kiss I've ever seen on

0:41:11.080 --> 0:41:13.799
<v Speaker 3>the Disney Channel in my life. It is nowhere like that.

0:41:13.920 --> 0:41:16.919
<v Speaker 3>It is like, yeah, bye, this is our job.

0:41:16.960 --> 0:41:18.440
<v Speaker 1>By the way, Meg, this is our job.

0:41:19.560 --> 0:41:25.640
<v Speaker 3>Absolutely, you were the best. Thank you so timon coming

0:41:25.719 --> 0:41:28.799
<v Speaker 3>on this was so fun. Do you think there's a

0:41:28.960 --> 0:41:32.720
<v Speaker 3>chance can we put it out there for a Zombies five?

0:41:33.360 --> 0:41:38.560
<v Speaker 3>I know it's ahead of it, but if everything goes well,

0:41:38.719 --> 0:41:41.440
<v Speaker 3>I don't see why not. The people love it, they

0:41:41.560 --> 0:41:42.080
<v Speaker 3>want it.

0:41:42.640 --> 0:41:46.080
<v Speaker 2>I would love that. I would love the all the

0:41:46.160 --> 0:41:48.920
<v Speaker 2>new kids to have their own I feel like Milo

0:41:49.000 --> 0:41:51.320
<v Speaker 2>and I will definitely still one hundred percent be involved,

0:41:51.360 --> 0:41:54.400
<v Speaker 2>whether it's like behind the scenes or like a cameo

0:41:54.640 --> 0:41:56.520
<v Speaker 2>or whatever. But it would be really special because the

0:41:56.560 --> 0:41:58.520
<v Speaker 2>kids are so talented. It'd be so cool to have

0:41:58.600 --> 0:42:02.520
<v Speaker 2>their own special like story and get more into their characters.

0:42:02.640 --> 0:42:06.120
<v Speaker 2>And totally love to be involved and to be on

0:42:06.320 --> 0:42:09.000
<v Speaker 2>the other side of things and to yeah, maybe make

0:42:09.080 --> 0:42:10.320
<v Speaker 2>a cameo, sing a song.

0:42:10.239 --> 0:42:13.000
<v Speaker 1>Or two, but it would be really cool. And we're

0:42:13.000 --> 0:42:15.400
<v Speaker 1>going to start lobbying for Dancing with the Stars.

0:42:15.480 --> 0:42:18.640

0:42:39.880 --> 0:42:45.000
<v Speaker 2>Thank you, bye bye.

0:42:45.320 --> 0:42:48.040
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. I didn't like her. She was unpleasant.

0:42:48.040 --> 0:42:50.000
<v Speaker 3>I mean, what.

0:42:51.320 --> 0:42:57.680
<v Speaker 1>So talented the talent, but it also learning stunning.

0:42:57.760 --> 0:42:58.360
<v Speaker 3>She's stunning.

0:42:58.400 --> 0:43:00.759
<v Speaker 1>But I also love when when this is what being

0:43:00.840 --> 0:43:03.200
<v Speaker 1>a child actor is like too, because you're like, now,

0:43:03.280 --> 0:43:06.080
<v Speaker 1>twenty what she's probably twenty six, twenty seven, however old

0:43:06.080 --> 0:43:08.000
<v Speaker 1>she is, if she's even that, and she's like, yeah,

0:43:08.080 --> 0:43:09.839
<v Speaker 1>being the old person on the set, and it's like, what,

0:43:11.120 --> 0:43:12.160
<v Speaker 1>I know what.

0:43:12.360 --> 0:43:15.160
<v Speaker 3>But it's so true, you know what I mean, when

0:43:15.400 --> 0:43:18.080
<v Speaker 3>you were on your sets and then all of a

0:43:18.120 --> 0:43:21.239
<v Speaker 3>sudden it's that transition and now you're the one there

0:43:21.640 --> 0:43:25.560
<v Speaker 3>the younger kids are looking at for advice to help

0:43:25.680 --> 0:43:29.440
<v Speaker 3>move direction. If you're saying, guys, let's calm down, you

0:43:29.480 --> 0:43:30.760
<v Speaker 3>know all that stuff.

0:43:31.000 --> 0:43:31.800
<v Speaker 1>You're the adult.

0:43:32.120 --> 0:43:36.399
<v Speaker 3>She's getting to experience that, you know, and that's that's amazing.

0:43:36.600 --> 0:43:39.760
<v Speaker 3>I'm so excited for her. I love that she's getting

0:43:39.800 --> 0:43:42.399
<v Speaker 3>a chance now within her career. I'm sure it's really

0:43:42.480 --> 0:43:44.880
<v Speaker 3>just been about timing of focusing on her.

0:43:44.800 --> 0:43:47.640
<v Speaker 1>Music, sure, but also getting a chance to produce the

0:43:47.680 --> 0:43:49.840
<v Speaker 1>films and get more involved in the behind the scenes

0:43:49.880 --> 0:43:52.080
<v Speaker 1>and all that kind of stuff. It just that's one

0:43:52.080 --> 0:43:53.839
<v Speaker 1>of the things Disney is starting to do well that

0:43:53.920 --> 0:43:56.000
<v Speaker 1>they they're doing better now than they did back in

0:43:56.040 --> 0:44:00.239
<v Speaker 1>the day, which is allowing their talent the opportunity to

0:44:00.280 --> 0:44:02.880
<v Speaker 1>grow in other aspects of the industry. I mean, I

0:44:02.880 --> 0:44:04.120
<v Speaker 1>think that's super important.

0:44:04.560 --> 0:44:08.240
<v Speaker 3>Oh yeah, for sure, Raven. We got Selena Gomez coming, Yeah,

0:44:08.320 --> 0:44:11.080
<v Speaker 3>you know, I mean that is just it's so exciting

0:44:11.120 --> 0:44:14.600
<v Speaker 3>that Disney believes in their talent as much as they do.

0:44:14.840 --> 0:44:17.359
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that's and wants them to be well rounded and

0:44:17.400 --> 0:44:19.360
<v Speaker 1>wants them to learn every aspect of the business. You

0:44:19.400 --> 0:44:22.719
<v Speaker 1>never know when the next big power agent or producer

0:44:22.960 --> 0:44:26.719
<v Speaker 1>or director or cinematographer can come out of something of

0:44:26.880 --> 0:44:30.840
<v Speaker 1>just the channel and the company just giving people more opportunity,

0:44:30.960 --> 0:44:32.560
<v Speaker 1>like yeah, you want to come produce, come produce. That

0:44:32.640 --> 0:44:35.319
<v Speaker 1>might lead you in a whole new direction. So well,

0:44:35.400 --> 0:44:36.799
