Today, Disney Branded Television announced series greenlights for “How We Became the Biggest Band in the World” and “Vampirina” (both working titles), two music-driven, live-action comedies slated to premiere next year on Disney Channel and Disney+ as a way to refresh Disney Branded Television's multi-cam sitcoms who started with Wizards Beyond Waverly Place and Alice In The Palace.

Vampirina which is inspired on Disney Junior's series of the same name becomes the first Disney Jr. property to be getting a live action remake

“Vampirina” (Working Title) “Vampirina” (working title) follows a tween vampire girl who leaves the safety of Transylvania to attend a performing arts boarding school. Living amongst humans for the first time, she pursues her passion for music while keeping her vampire secret, something that’s made more challenging when her overprotective father charges an overzealous ghost to live with her at the school. The series is based on the books written by Anne Marie Pace and illustrated by LeUyen Pham, and inspired by the Disney Jr. animated series “Vampirina” from Chris Nee. The series stars newcomer Kenzi Richardson as Vee, Jiwon Lee (“Rise Up, Sing Out”) as Sophie, Shaun Dixon (“The Neighborhood”) as Elijah, Milo Maharlika (“Les Miserables” Broadway National Tour) as Demi and newcomer Faith Hedley as Britney. Randi Barnes serves as showrunner and executive producer. Tim Federle and Bronwyn North-Reist are executive producers. Kimberly McCullough directed and executive produced the pilot.

“‘How We Became the Biggest Band in the World’ and ‘Vampirina’ are two standout additions to Disney Channel’s comedy slate,” said Ayo Davis, president, Disney Branded Television. “Both new series are full of all the elements we know our young audiences love: relatable, aspirational characters, upbeat music and plenty of laughter, friendship and heart.”
