Disney Channel Auditions

According to IMDB, the film is about a high school hockey player forced to lead his sister’s Girl Guide troop. I am sure Disney will choose current Disney stars to play the lead roles, but that shouldn’t stop you from going after those supporting roles!

If you could pick a lead character for the hockey player and his sister, which two Disney stars would you pick? I can definitely see Hutch Dano, who stars in Disney XD’s Zeke & Luther, playing this role. He would make a great hockey player!

Filming for the movie starts in February and will go until March. For all the information you need about where to submit your headshot and resume, click here.

Synopsis:

The story is set in the small and rather boring village of Instep. Egan, a young boy, has come to Instep to visit relatives and attend a fair. The village’s people are terrified by the noises that come from the top of a small nearby mountain. No one has ever investigated the source of the sound, but the general rumor is that a thing being called the "Megrimum" lives up there, kept at bay only through the use of various charms and offerings.

Teased by his cousin, Egan decides to make a trek up the mountain to investigate the source of the noises. When he discovers what’s really up there, he has a hard decision to make about whether or not to inform the village.When something goes wrong.Egan’s cousin Ada tell everyone in the town of Instep that Egan was treking up the rise.Everyone in the town starts looking for Egan.At the top of the rise Egan discovers that there is no ‘Megrimum’.Its just a boiling spring inside a cave that ecos when it rains.Egan tries to tell everyone in Instep that the Megrimum is fake but everyone thinks he was lieing.

If Disney Channel is turning this into a DCOM, who would YOU cast in it?!

(Update: Disney sources have told us that Cody Linley was replaced by Sterling Knight because of scheduling issues. Cody will be taking to the stage in a Broadway play called “Over Here”. Congrats Cody!!)

Production has begun on “Starstruck,” a music-filled Disney Channel Original Movie starring Sterling Knight (“Sonny With A Chance”) and introducing Danielle Campbell. Slated to premiere in 2010, the movie is filming in and around Los Angeles at landmark locations including Hollywood Boulevard, Sunset Boulevard, the Hollywood Sign, Grauman’s Chinese Theater and the Venice Boardwalk.

The story follows Jessica Olson (played by Campbell), a down-to-earth girl from the Midwest who collides (literally) with Hollywood’s teen heartthrob, pop star Christopher Wilder (played by Knight). They wind up on a love-struck adventure in Southern California, but their bond is tested when she returns home and he publicly denies their relationship.

Also starring are Brandon Mychal Smith (“Sonny With A Chance”) as Stubby, Christopher’s childhood best friend; Maggie Castle (“The Time Traveler’s Wife”) as Sara Olson, Jessica’s older, star struck sister; and Dan O’Connor (“Malcolm in the Middle”) and Beth Littleford (Disney XD’s upcoming “I’m in the Band”, “Rules of Engagement”) as Dean and Barbara Olson, Jessica and Sara’s parents.

Knight and Smith have become familiar faces to Disney Channel fans since the debut of their hit series “Sonny With A Chance.” Since its February 2009 premiere, “Sonny With A Chance” is TV’s No. 1 program in its Sunday 8:00 p.m. time period in Kids 6-11 and Tweens 9-14, and ranks among TV’s Top 5 programs overall in the target demos.

The movie’s soundtrack will feature songs written by songwriters Mitch Allan, Jessi Alexander, Adam Anders, Aris Aronchitis, Peer Astrom, Ali Dee, Andy Dodd, Nikki Hassman, Jeannie Lurie, Niclas Molinder, Chen Neeman, Joacim Persson and Adam Watts.

Cody was also very excited about attending the first ever D23 Expo.

"It’s going to be awesome — a huge event designed for the fans," he says of the star-filled four-day extravaganza at the Anaheim Convention Center. It sounds like a Disney-tween answer to Comic Con. "I’m going to be there for a few hours, sign some autographs, meet the fans," says the affable 19-year-old. And as far as dancing, "If there are some fans who want to dance with me, I’m always going to be breaking it out.It’s a new love for me."
