Cody Linley looks back at his Hannah Montana days of love and a little honesty.
During a November performance at Real appreciation podcast, the 36-year-old actor reflected on playing Jake Ryan and didn’t shy away from addressing the character’s messy breakup with Miley Stewart.
“A lot of people think they were the playoffs,” Linley said of the fan-favorite pair. “But Jake did her dirty in the end. So I’ll just leave it up to fan speculation on that one.”
In the show, Miley ultimately ended their on-again, off-again romance after discovering that Jake had cheated – a storyline that still sparks debate among viewers.
When asked where Jake might be today, Linley joked, “Maybe he would instruct like I do.” He also expressed enthusiasm about reconnecting with his former teammates. “I would love to have a reunion. The time we all had together was very special. And just coming together to celebrate, love for each other would be amazing.” He teased what’s ahead, adding about Jake’s “bittersweet ending,” “We’ll see what happens.”
His comments come just as Disney announced one Hannah Montana 20th anniversary special, hosted by Alex Cooper and featuring “never-before-seen archive footage” and an interview with Miley Cyrus.
