While the first two High School Musical movies were both huge successes for Disney, neither film was screened theatrically.

That’s all going to change when Zac Efron, Vanessa Hudgens, Ashley Tisdale, Corbin Bleu, and the rest of the gang hit the big screen in High School Musical 3: Senior Year this October.

It looks like in HSM3, the characters will mature and have to face some harder decisions than in the previous ones.

“You see the characters grow up a lot more so than ever before,” explained Vanessa Hudgens in an interview with ABC News. ”You know, you have college, you have your relationships, and just trying to figure out which path to take is tough.”

“Troy usually has a pretty big decision to make in every film. And in this movie, you see Troy struggling with these decisions … whether to, you know, pursue basketball or pursue theater. And it’s a pretty big one for him. It’s pretty cool,” said co-star Zac Efron.

Efron admitted that he arrived at rehearsals late and had to pay for it the hard way.

“It was tough catching up with everybody,” he admitted. “Vanessa’s tough to keep up with, man!”

”I’m still hurting. We’re all kind of limping around,” Hudgens added.
