"There is tremendous interest on the part of the people who own the rights, being the Walt Disney Company, to do something for the 20th anniversary of High School Musical that would come out and it will be contingent on a certain cast member being interested in doing that, you know, because everything's more would be more expensive. But we've had discussions. People are willing to get roll up their sleeves and do it if all the pieces can come together. We the people created the movie, didn't do the TV show version of High School Musical. You know, that was a different entity. And though we had all the taste of that, but it was different entity. But if we do High School 4 it's going to be we're going to get the band back together and and do the thing we have. We have an idea for what it would be. It's kind of cool. It's not just a victory lap or you know, because we wouldn't want to piss people off who said, "Oh my God, I invested my childhood in these 3 movies and now they did this". So we don't want to do that. But so we're on the case. We'll see if it happens."In May 2016, Disney started to cast High School Musical 4 with an event including Corbin Bleu doing an open audition for more than 5000 people. The project was closed and then in 2019, HIgh School Musical: The Musical: The Series premiered on Disney+ with the idea of keeping the franchise name alive and bringing a new generation to the Wildcats world, as mentioned by Peter, HSMTMTS is not property of the same people that worked on the films so there's still a hope on having another chapter to the franchise on the near future.
