Hannah Montana celebrates 13th Anniversary! See the casts then and now!

Last Modified: 1st Sep

Hannah Montana debuted on The Disney Channel for a total of four seasons until its end in 2011. The series’ main cast Miley Cyrus who played Miley Stewart and pop star Hannah Montana was the breakout star of the series. It also featured her real-life father as her on-screen father and her little sister, Noah Cyrus as the guest star.

Billy Ray Cyrus wrote to Instagram alongside a nostalgic picture on 24th March, "Dang Flabbit! Happy Anniversary #HannahMontana! 13 years ago today we released the pilot! @mileycyrus @emilyosment @realdukeofearles @mitchelmusso."

Miley Cyrus and Mitchel Musso also shared throwback pictures on Instagram.

Miley Cyrus has remained in the spotlight over the years, releasing hit albums, singles and starring in movies. But what about the remaining cast? Are they still in show business?

Miley Cyrus

Miley Cyrus, who portrayed Miley Stewart and Hannah Montana is now one of the most popular celebs around. Other than a bit of a wild phase where she rocked short bangs, twerked on Robin Thicke at the 2013 MTV VMAs, bared it all for the Wrecking Ball music video, and appeared nude or scantily clad in pictures, she is back to being Miley.

She is now enjoying life with her husband Liam Hemsworth, having tied the knot on December 23, 2018.

Emily Osment

After the series ended, Osment went on to voice characters on Family Guy and Rainbow Brite while also appearing on shows such as Mom, Young & Hungry, Cleaners, and The Kominsky Method

Like Cyrus, she has her own music career and continues to make music.
