Of course we’re devo that High School Musical 4 won’t feature the original cast but if the rumours are true, one of them might look a bit familiar.
According to Just Jared Jr., actress Merit Leighton might be in the running for one of the new HSM female lead roles… and she’s a dead ringer for Vanessa Hudgens!
Apparently Merit, who voices Lucinda the Witch on Disney’s Sofia The First, could play one of three major characters: Erin, the only girl on the boys’ soccer team, Nathalie, Erin’s BFF and bubbly East High cheerleader or Tamara, East High’s former queen bee.
We’re not sure it can top the original movies but we’re pretty pumped to check out the next batch of East High Wildcats and their rivals, the West High Knights.
