Hannah Montana adaptations: films & series

Every version of Hannah Montana — the films & series, compared across media.

Hannah Montana follows Miley Stewart, an ordinary teenager living a secret double life as glamorous pop star Hannah Montana. Keeping the "Best of Both Worlds" is the heart of this story — the tension between a normal adolescence and the pressures of celebrity. That same premise runs through two different screen versions: the TV series that established Miley's world, and a feature film that raises the stakes when the celebrity lifestyle threatens to pull her away from who she really is.
