Why Didn’t Emily Osment Go to the Hannah Montana Premiere?

It always comes back to Young Sheldon. Emily Osment won’t be attending the premiere of the Hannah Montana 20th Anniversary Special, as she’s filming George and Mandy’s First Marriage. “Hannah Montana changed my life, it gave me a lifelong respect for this medium of comedy, it taught me discipline, patience, timing and respect working in an adult space so young. I’ve met thousands of HM fans over the years, fans that now have children watching this show and fans that literally work beside me every day, like Montana,” she wrote on Instagram, alongside a video of Montana Jordan. “He’s seen every episode, don’t be fooled. I can’t tell you what your sweet messages mean to me and how lucky I feel to have been apart of this once in a generation goliath of a television show.”

Main cast members Miley Cyrus, Jason Earles, and Moisés Arias were in attendance at the premiere at the El Capitan Theatre in Los Angeles. Supporting cast members Shanica Knowles, Anna Maria Perez de Tagle, and Cody Linley stopped by the red carpet as well. But maybe there will be another time for Hannah and Lola to reconnect in the future. Osment concluded, “Thank you for letting me into your living rooms and I hope to still be there many years from now. Would never be where I am without you guys, working on another beautiful show I love so dearly.”
