The Disney Channel has found a new star to promote. Her name is Bridgit Mendler and she is in the new Disney Channel Original Series “Good Luck Charlie.”
Bridgit is 16-years-old and the Senior Vice President of Original Programming at the Disney Channel said: “She has all the attributes of a Disney star.”
Bridgit has already appeared on two episodes of the Disney Channel Original Series “J.O.N.A.S.” where she played a love interest of Nick Jonas. After that she was on four episodes of Disney’s “Wizards of Waverly Place.”
“Good Luck Charlie” will not be debuting until next year. Bridgit will be playing in the show alongside Jason Dolley, who was in the Disney Channel Original Movie “Hatching Pete.” In the show, Bridgit’s parents go back to work full time after having a baby and Bridgit then has to take care of her new sister, Charlie. The show is a video diary of Charlie’s adventures.
The parents on the show will be played by Leigh Allyn Baker and Eric Allan Kramer. Bradley Perry will also join the cast.
Disney executives have described the show as “a family show from a kid’s point of view. It felt like the right time to have a show with two parents, to debunk the myth that Disney never has the mom in the picture. Because it is a myth.” Sounds like that’s a touchy subject with Disney!
