It’s hard to believe, but Hannah Montana: The Movie came out 15 years ago!
The movie, which brought the beloved characters from the Disney Channel series to the big screen, premiered in April 2009 and starred Miley Cyrus, Billy Ray Cyrus, Emily Osment and new additions like Vanessa Williams, Melora Hardin and even a cameo from Taylor Swift.
As fans continue to celebrate Miley being named a Disney Legend on Aug. 11 at D23 — the youngest-ever — here’s a look back at the premiere of the iconic movie.

For her big moment, Miley Cyrus accessorized her fringe dress with a leather jacket and matching boots. On Aug. 11, 2024, while accepting her Disney Legend honor, the multi-hyphenate got emotional when looking back on her role of Hannah Montana.
“A little bit of everything has changed, … but at the same time, nothing has changed at all,” she said. “I stand here still proud to have been Hannah Montana.”

Before she was selling out arenas all over the globe, Taylor Swift secured a cameo role in Hannah Montana: The Movie where she performed her song “Crazier” from the movie’s soundtrack.
Swift recently sang the song during an Eras Tour stop in Scotland during the surprise song portion of the night. Before singing the tune, which she blended with 2023’s “All of the Girls You Loved Before,” she told the crowd: “You get extra points if you know this next song at all because it is really, really old.”
