The series is praised as a heartwarming, diverse coming-of-age story about the most important things in any young person’s life — family and friends, and the journey of self-discovery.
The coming-of-age story marked a key moment for the channel in the second-season premiere when the 13-year-old Cyrus Goodman character played by Rush came out to his friends after realizing he was gay, marking Disney Channel first depiction of a coming-out journey. Season 3 will begin filming soon in Salt Lake City.
“A series about a girl discovering that her sister is really her mother was new territory for Disney Channel, but Terri’s honest, authentic storytelling allowed our audience to connect deeply to these characters and their journeys of self-discovery, said Gary Marsh, president and chief creative officer, Disney Channels Worldwide “What she has crafted stands as a high-water benchmark for kids and family storytelling around the world.”
Andi Mack stars Lee as Andi Mack, Bowden as Bex Mack, Lauren Tom as Celia Mack, Rush as Cyrus Goodman, Wylie as Buffy Driscoll and Angel as Jonah Beck. Recurring cast members are Trent Garrett as Bowie Quinn, Stoney Westmoreland as Henry “HAM” Mack, Emily Skinner as Amber, Luke Mullen as T.J., and Darius Marcell as Walker.
The series is from Horizon Productions.
