Is Miley Back As Hannah Montana in 2026?

Get ready to dust off the limo and step back into the glittering Hannah Montana era! To mark the 20th anniversary of one of Disney’s most iconic shows, Miley Cyrus is returning to the spotlight with the Hannah Montana 20th Anniversary Special. This nostalgic celebration will explore the show’s cultural impact while treating fans to never‑before‑seen content from the original series.

“Hannah Montana will always be a part of who I am,” Cyrus shared in a press release. “What started as a TV show became a shared experience that shaped my life and the lives of so many fans. The fact that it still means so much all these years later is something I’m very proud of. This ‘Hannahversary’ is my way of celebrating and thanking the fans who’ve stood by me for 20 years.”

Produced by HopeTown Entertainment and Unwell Productions, the special promises more than just a trip down memory lane. Disney+ has already released an official Hannah Montana Collection, alongside a nonstop stream of all four seasons, Hannah Montana: The Movie, and The Best of Both Worlds Concert. The anniversary special itself premieres on March 24, 2026, filmed in front of a live studio audience to echo the magic of the original show.

Fans can expect an intimate interview with Miley Cyrus hosted by Alex Cooper, revisiting the creation of one of pop culture’s most beloved characters. The special will feature exclusive archival footage, iconic sets like the Stewart family living room and Hannah’s closet, and even musical surprises teased by Disney. A trailer has already dropped, showing a Ford Mustang with the license plate “HM 20” pulling up to Stage 9 as The Best of Both Worlds plays faintly in the background — a perfect nod to where it all began.

Adding to the excitement, Miley was recently spotted in Malibu wearing Hannah Montana’s signature blonde wig and archival outfits, including the thin scarf from her “This Is the Life” performance and oversized shield sunglasses. With cameras rolling, fans are buzzing that these moments will be part of the upcoming special. Nostalgia, music, and memories are about to collide — and it looks like we’re all getting the best of both worlds once again.
