“Vampirina: Teenage Vampire” is a music-driven series that tells the story of 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 identity a secret, something that’s made more challenging when her overprotective father charges an overzealous ghost to live with her at the school. Vampirina, also known as “Vee,” is a beloved character from the popular book saga and the record-breaking Disney Jr. series.
The series’ main cast comprises Kenzi Richardson as the edgy and adorable Vee; Jiwon Lee as Sophie, Vee’s kind and girly-girl roommate; Shaun Dixon as the intriguing and laid-back Elijah; Milo Maharlika as the 600-year-old ghost, Demi; and Faith Hedley as Britney, a super-talented legacy student. The recurring cast features Kate Reinders (“High School Musical: The Musical: The Series”) and Jeff Meacham (“Black-ish”) as Vee’s loving vampire parents. Kim Coles (“Living Single”) is Dean Merriweather of Wilson Hall Academy of the Arts.
Upcoming episodes will guest star Emmy Award winner Mykal-Michelle Harris as the delightful and dangerous Ruby, Jenna Davis (The “M3GAN” franchise) as magnetic upperclassmen Megan, viral sensation Ariel Martin (aka Baby Ariel) (“ZOMBIES”) as megacool popstar Millie Eyelash, and star of “Wizards Beyond Waverly Place” Janice LeAnn Brown as her character Billie in a mystical crossover episode.
