Meg Donnelly also stars in ABC’s “American Housewives.” In November 2018, Milo Manheim became the second place contender on ABC’s “Dancing with the Stars.”

“ZOMBIES” introduced Zed, a zombie football player, and Addison, a human cheerleader, who united their respective communities in the town of Seabrook. “ZOMBIES 2” begins after last year’s groundbreaking semester at Seabrook High, as a new group of outsiders—mysterious werewolves—threaten the newfound unity and cause a rift between Zed and Addison.

“ZOMBIES 2” was written by David Light and Joseph Raso, who were nominated for a Humanitas Prize for their “ZOMBIES” teleplay. The sequel will be directed by Paul Hoen, who also directed the first movie. Anna Gerb (“All Is Lost,” “Triple Frontier”), Hoen, Light and Raso are executive producers.

“ZOMBIES” was the #1 telecast among Kids 6-11 and Tweens 9-14 for 2018. It was Disney Channel’s #1 video-on-demand property and the #1 title in the DisneyNOW app for 2018. Its videos on DisneyMusicVEVO have amassed over 377 million views. The movie soundtrack debuted at #1 on the Billboard Top Children’s chart, #4 on the Billboard Top Soundtrack chart, #2 on the iTunes Soundtrack chart and #3 on the iTunes album chart.
