Actor Moises Arias recently took a nostalgic look back at his childhood role on the iconic Disney Channel series, Hannah Montana. Arias was just 12 years old when he first brought the scene-stealing character Rico Suave to life alongside stars Miley Cyrus and Emily Osment.
For Arias, the show was a foundational experience. He describes it as a unique chapter where he essentially grew up alongside the global audience. The series, which blended sitcom storytelling with live concert energy, left an indelible mark thanks in large part to its memorable music.
Even 15 years after the show premiered, Arias notes that fan fascination remains incredibly strong. He humorously points out that every few years, new “then and now” comparisons of the cast resurface online, creating a lasting cultural touchstone that makes everyone “feel old.”
