Miley Cyrus and Billy Ray Cyrus have returned to the set of Hannah Montana for the show’s 20th anniversary special, set to debut on Disney+ March 24. The duo, who reprise their iconic roles as Miley Stewart and Robby Ray Stewart, showcased their characters’ signature style in a new trailer released March 10. Miley, dressed as her alter ego Hannah Montana, expressed nostalgia for the role, saying, “Already getting emotional,” while the trailer highlighted the reimagined set and their dynamic. The trailer features Miley interacting with her mother, Tish Cyrus, and her father, Billy Ray, in scenes reminiscent of the show’s original run. One standout moment is a playful “booty bump” between Miley and Billy Ray, a nod to their father-daughter handshake from the series. Billy Ray shared the trailer on his Instagram, writing, “20 years later and @mileycyrus still knows the old handshake trick.” This gesture originated from Miley’s final audition for the role, where she demonstrated her ability to connect with her on-screen father. In a 2023 TikTok series, Miley recounted the audition process, explaining how her father’s involvement was a key part of her casting. Despite initial challenges, Billy Ray expressed pride in her growth as an actress and young adult, stating in 2007, “This is so much fun… being part of her life has been one of the most rewarding events of my life.” The anniversary special also serves as a tribute to the cast and crew, with updates on their current careers. Miley has continued her music career, releasing albums like Bangerz (2013), Plastic Hearts (2020), and Something Beautiful (2025), and winning a Grammy in 2023 for “Flowers.” After splitting from Last Song co-star Liam Hemsworth, she dated Cody Simpson and Kaitlynn Carter before engaging to Maxx Morando.#tish_cyrus #miley_cyrus #billy_ray_cyrus #emily_osment #jason_earles
