Hey guys, interested in seeing a Disney movie starring Miley, Demi, Selena, and the Jonas Brothers? Disney execs are looking at several script ideas for a movie vehicle for these stars, probably for release on the Disney channel, but may possibly be considered for feature release on the big screen! Right now this is all unofficial, and if one of the scripts is chosen it would have to wait for the completion of the filming of "Camp Rock 2", as Demi and the Jonas Bros are currently involved in that project. Here are some of the movie ideas being discussed:
1. A movie starring the Disney artists as themselves, which would be based on the "Friends for Change" promotion that has been airing recently.
(This one has a finished script and is a strong contender for filming)
2. The gang play a group of friends in a small town who form a band. They are signed to a major record label and hit it big, but that also brings all of the pressures of fame and whether the friends can stay true to each other.
(This one also has a large amount of support, but the biggest drawback is that this idea of "small band makes it big" has been done many times before)
3. A film using characters from the Disney sitcoms, Hannah/Miley, Demi as Sonny, Selena as Alex, and the Jonas's. This would also feature appearances by the rest of the casts of those shows.
(The biggest objection to this is the Jonas's basically play themselves on their show, while the girls do play characters different from themselves. The idea doesn't really gel.)
4. A remake of "Footloose". Paramount has been trying to film a remake but it's been sidetracked by casting problems. Disney would partner with Paramount if this was chosen.
5. Remake of "Grease". This is unlikely as the storyline is a little too close to Disney's popular "High School Musical"
