After the huge success of the Disney Channel’s movie, “High School Musical,” why wouldn’t producers want to make another?

The first movie is the story of Troy, a jock played by superstar Zac Efron, and Gabriella, a brainiac played by Vanessa Anne Hudgens.

Since its debut the film has been seen by 170 million people worldwide, winning two Emmy awards along the way.
