Jason Earles did his own stunts? Lucas Till had never ridden a horse before? (We already talked to Lucas Till in our interview about how he had to leanr to ride a horse. Now he loves it!) None of Hannah’s outfits were store-bought?!?

BEHIND THE MAGIC

Step behind the camera as we bring you the low-down on Hannah Montana The Movie. We’ve got a backstage pass to the making of the fab film – and you’re invited!

THE STORY…

What’s Hannah Montana The Movie all about? “Well, my character has always had the best of both worlds – but she’ll have to choose just one in the movie,” explains Miley Cyrus. “She’s lost herself and her dad decides the best thing to do is to take her home to Tennessee. She’s taken back to the real world where she’s brought back to reality. She has to go out and get dirty, as well as ride the horse she grew up with!”

BOX OF DELIGHTS!

“I bought some cool ideas to the movie,” admits Miley. “There’s something we call a ‘Hannah box’ in the film, which is Hannah’s make-up box. She travels around with it and it was me who came up with ideas for the fun things to put inside. I said that it shouldn’t look like a normal make-up box because Hannah has a different vibe. I think it came out really cool!”

STUNT HERO!

Jason Earles – who plays Miley’s brother Jackson in Hannah Montana – performed all of his own stunts in the movie. “I didn’t have a stunt double,” the brave star reveals. “I did everything myself. When you see Jackson falling off the ladder, that was me harnessed up!”

KISSY KISSY!

Miley gets to kiss a cute country boy called Travis in the movie – but the Disney star wasn’t nervous about the smooch scenes at all. “I wasn’t worried about my first movie kiss,” reveals Miley. “I don’t know… Maybe it’s because he’s so cute?!”

PONY UP!

It took three weeks for Lucas Till to learn to ride a horse for the film. “I hadn’t ridden a horse before I worked on this movie,” chuckles Lucas. “My dad did rodeo for the University Of Georgia and always had horse stories, but I hadn’t even been on a horse before. Thankfully, it felt natural to me – and it was a lot of fun.”

ANIMAL MAGIC!

“I shot a lot of scenes that didn’t make it into the movie, but I’m glad they made it onto the DVD,” reveals Jason Earles. “There were a few extra scenes with the animals and some other scenes with Cousin Derek – and I they’re really funny. Check them out!”

EXTRA EXTRA!

What else does the DVD have to offer? “Well, there are bloopers and behind-the-scenes videos, as well as deleted scenes,” explains the movie’s director, Peter Chelsom. “One deleted scene sees the British reporter walking into his motel room to find an ostrich by his bed and an alligator in his shower!” See more below!

LIGHTS, CAMERA, ACTION…

It took 11 weeks to shoot the movie. The cast and crew spent eight and a half weeks filming in Nashville, close to where Miley Cyrus actually grew up. The rest of the film shoot was spent on location in California at landmarks including Santa Monica Pier and Rodeo Drive.

TIME TO CHILL…

The waterfall scene was tough on the actors in the movie. “It was freezing,” giggles Miley. “It was a big challenge because we had to rock climb up to the top of this cliff and then jump into the water from up high. Thankfully there were heaters nearby because the water was so cold. It was icy!”

THE STYLE FILES!

“None of the outfits Hannah wears in the movie were brought in stores,” reveals the movie’s costume designer, Christopher Lawrence. “They were all designed and made by the costume department. We even hand-glued crystals to her sneakers for one scene. It took 13 hours per shoe!”

MADE TO MEASURE!

It cost $70,000 to build the revolving doors seen in the movie. “The building where we were shooting didn’t have revolving doors, but I thought they would work really well in the film,” explains director, Peter Chelsom. “That’s why I decided to build them from scratch!”

TICKLE TIME!

Emily Osment spent four hours getting her feet massaged for one of the scenes in the movie. “It was great,” chuckles Emily. “They didn’t need me in the shot because it was only my feet – but I kept saying, ‘No, I’ll do it. It’s okay.’ I really enjoyed sitting in bed getting my feet rubbed!”

HIGH HEEL HORROR!

“It was so much fun to shoot the shoe scene with Tyra Banks,” reveals Miley. “But the problem with that scene is the way that the shoes aren’t really very cute. I would never fight over those shoes in real life!”

**RANDOM FACTS TO DROP AROUND THE FEATURE** FAST FACT!

It took two days to film the exploding cake scene in the movie! “I was covered in cream and sponge for hours,” giggles Moises Arias. DID YOU KNOW? It took the prop team three weeks to create the pumpkin head for the scene where Jackson falls into the pumpkin patch! HANNAH MONTANA THE MOVIE Available on Disney Blu-ray and DVD August 18th!

Post from: Disney Society

In anticipation of the August 18th release of HANNAH MONTANA: The Movie, we present you with these Bloopers! Making a movie is serious business, but maybe someone should have told Miley and her cast-mates. Fits of giggles, giant Tennessee bugs, and a fart machine ensured some on-set hilarity!

SWEET NIBLETS!

Get ready for a giggle-fest! Miley Cyrus and the cast of Hannah Montana The Movie reveal their biggest bloopers. Ooh, the shame…

BIRD BRAIN!

Miley Cyrus says: “The worst thing to happen to me on the set was when I accidentally ate some chicken feed. It was horrible! I was swinging around a barn filled with chickens and things were flying everywhere – which is when some of their food flew into my mouth. It tasted disgusting, but it was very funny!”

ICE ICE BABY!

Jason Earles says: “I have a scene in the movie with an ostrich – and it bit me on the face during our first take! It bit me just above my lip, so I had to put it on ice and then cover up the mark with make-up for the rest of the day. It was the one thing that I didn’t want to happen – and it was the very first thing the bird did. Typical!”

FOOT FUN!

Emily Osment says: “My favorite part of filming was a scene where I get my feet rubbed. It was really funny! I was under the covers giggling with joy because it felt so nice. The scene took three hours to film, but it wasn’t long enough. I was desperately trying not to laugh out loud!”

GOOF OFF!

Miley Cyrus says: “I had so much fun on the set of the movie. In fact, I’ve never laughed so hard before! As soon as the cameras stopped rolling, we’d start messing around and getting the giggles. There are probably loads of shots of me pulling some seriously goofy faces on camera or laughing way too hard. I don’t think I ever want to see them because they’re really embarrassing!”

CAKE CALAMITY!

Moises Arias says: “I wasn’t involved in any bloopers – but I had to spend two days covered in cake for the movie. It was pretty funny! The cake was made from real icing, but I don’t really like cake – so it wasn’t too nice to be stuck underneath gloopy, cakey mess for hours. I stank of cake for days afterwards, too!”

BUGGED OUT!

Jason Earles says: “There was a serious bug problem in Tennessee. They were always giant cicadas jumping around the place and freaking out people. It was really funny to watch the girls scream and run for it whenever the bugs flew in. Eeek!”

BUM DEAL!

Lucas Till says: “Miley is the biggest practical joker I know. I remember her doing a pretty serious scene, but she’d somehow got her hands on a fart machine. She would set off loads of fart sounds and pretend they were coming from her. She was rolling around screaming, ‘Oh, my stomach is going to explode!’ It was hilarious!”

SLEEP SHAME!

Emily Osment says: “This didn’t happen on the movie – but it’s a pretty embarrassing moment from my past. I was a sleepwalker when I was little. At one point, I sleepwalked into our kitchen and thought the refrigerator was the bathroom. I opened the door and tried to get in!”

FUNNY FACE! 
Lucas Till Says:  “When you watch the bloopers on the DVD, you’ll see me making a bunch of funny faces. I’m actually a really goofy guy and I made a lot of goofy faces on the set before they started filming. You can see a load of them in the DVD extras!”

FEATHERY FRIENDS!

Miley Cyrus says: “This isn’t a blooper, but I befriended some of the chickens on the set. I really wanted to take them home with me. Other stars walk around Hollywood with little dogs under their arms, but I want to walk around with my little chicken!”

(Be sure and enter my Hannah Montana the Movie DVD contest on Miley Report!)

Being a superstar as well as a normal teenager is getting even more complicated for Miley  Stewart (Miley Cyrus). Her crazy double life as pop sensation Hannah Montana is taking its toll  on the teen and her family. So Miley’s dad, Robby Ray Stewart (Miley’s real-life father, Billy Ray Cyrus) decides a visit to the family farm in Tennessee to celebrate Grandma Ruby’s  (Margo Martindale) birthday will bring his little girl back down to earth. Far away from the bright  lights and the big city, Miley reconnects with childhood friend Travis (Lucas Till). 

Their budding romance, along with the love of her family and friends, gives Miley some much-needed perspective on life. But when her pushy publicist (Vanessa Williams) comes calling and a smarmy reporter (Peter Gunn) tries to dig up the dirt on Hannah, Miley is forced to make the hardest decision of her life. 

I like how Hannah Montana the series on the Disney Channel is tying in the Movie. Have you noticed them doing that? If you watch some of the newest episodes, you will hear them refer to Crowley Corners and when Hannah was away in Tennessee for awhile. As I was watching the movie, I was wondering how they were going to do that.

Anyway, not only do I think you are going to love the movie, I think you will really enjoy the bonus features. Check them out:

The Three-Disc Blu-ray Combo Pack includes these exclusive bonus features:
• The HoeDown ThrowDown Home Experience – everyone in the movie has to learn to do it, and now you can too. Famed choreographer Jamal Sims and some of our cast members will show us all step by step how to do the dance everyone is talking about.
• The Hannah Montana Store – an interactive experience that allows viewers to create a wish list of items displayed in the film and move desired items onto the internet via BD-Live capabilities.Through "Hannah’s Country Store" viewers will be able to click on the products in the movie, obtain information about the product, and purchase the merchandise.
• 7 Music Videos
• Find Your Way Back Home – Miley, Emily, Billy Ray, and other cast members share with us “THEIR” hometowns: the people, places & things that make ‘em special. We’ll go to a pottery class with Miley & her sister, visit their favorite ice cream shop, and other haunts around the Franklin Tennessee Town Square. Billy Ray saddles up his iron horse to show us home viewers a firsthand account of the beauty a country town like Thompson’s Station Tennessee has to offer. But not everyone is from a small country town. Emily will show us what it’s like to grow up in the entertainment Mecca we like to call Hollywood. Perhaps it will inspire us all to find a little reason to brag of our own hailing?
• Production 101: Jackson Style – Jason Earles is more than Miley’s big brother on TV. He is quite the accomplished actor. Here he will put his talents to use by interviewing cast & crew and giving us a true behind the scenes look at how this movie was made. He’ll cover the fashion, the music, the stars, lights, camera…action!
• Bloopers
• Deleted Scenes with Director Commentary
• BD Radio Disney – Fans can stream live Radio Disney audio through their home entertainment system, complete with artist and song information and lyrics! Users can also quickly link to site offering their favorite songs for purchase.
Both the Three-Disc Blu-ray Combo Pack and Two-Disc DVD include the following bonus features:

Miley was seen carrying a can of Coca-Cola and her dress seems to match the can! She always looks cute these days. As Miley was leaving her hotel, she took some time to sign autographs and pose for pictures with some awaiting fans.

Who knows how valid this is, but the NewYorkDailyNews is reporting that Miley and Nick Jonas would like to get back together. “Miley and Nick want to get back together,” our source tells us. “Because they’re working together [on a new video], they’ve been put in close proximity to each other. They’re now spending more and more time together, and they’re constantly on the phone.”

The two friends were spotted on April 11th having a lunch date. Nick picked Miley up in his 1968 Ford Mustang Cobra. You can read the rest of the article here.
