Talking about his thoughts on the sitcom’s return, the 45-year-old said, “A Hannah spinoff, sequel, or reimagining makes a lot of sense.”
“I think the right people would have to be involved,” he added.
The Hannah Montana alum specifically mentioned that the show isn’t really possible without his on-screen sister Miley Cyrus.

“I think that it’s something that maybe down the road Miley would be excited about, but it really hinges upon her. She has a much better relationship with the show now than she did when we finished,” he continued.
Will Hannah Montana Reboot Happen Without Miley?
Hannah Montana went off the air on January 16, 2011. Ever since, fans have been craving for more, as they make do with the re-runs or binging the series on Disney+. In these 11 years, Miley Cyrus has shed her child star image, which is something Jason acknowledges.
Talking about this change, he noted, “She’s really confident in who she is now. I don’t think that people just associate her with this thing she was trying to break out of.”

Given that Miley highly appreciates fans’ love for the hit sitcom, Jason proposed that the singer/actor might possibly decide to explore some version of a reboot. Jason also added that a spinoff without the star might not make any sense as he said, “I don’t think it really makes a lot of sense if she’s not involved because she really is the heart of the whole thing.”
On the 15th anniversary of Hannah Montana‘s premiere, Miley wrote a touching note celebrating her alternate persona that read,
“You were a rocket that flew me to the moon and never brought me back down. I couldn’t have imagined when taping myself singing ‘I Love Rock n’ Roll’ against a white wall in my mom’s friend’s kitchen…would make my wildest dreams a reality. You and I have been through it all, my friend.”

While Miley is now focusing on her career as a singer, Jason served as an acting coach for the first two seasons of High School Musical: The Musical: The Series.
