Somehow the Jonas Brothers and Demi Lovato will both take time out of their super-busy summer tour schedules to start work on the sequel to last year's hit Disney flick, "Camp Rock." According to a press release, production on "Camp Rock 2: The Final Jam" will start this summer and will get a big premiere next year on the Disney Channel.
Also returning from the first "Camp Rock" is Meaghan Jette Martin, Daniel Fathers, Maria Canals-Barrera, Anna Maria Perez de Tagle and Alyson Stoner (pictured, far left). There's also plans to bring on a new crew including Matthew "Mdot" Finley and Chloe Bridges.
The last flick saw Joe Jonas (Shane) and Demi (Mitchie) falling madly in love at the titular Camp Rock, and this year when the crew returns they find out that campers and instructors have left for a competing camp, Camp Star. Bonus: This time around Nick Jonas will get his own Romeo and Juliet-esque storyline.
Nick's character Nate, is supposed to romance Chloe's character, Dana, who is the daughter of Camp Star's owner. In addition to all of this star-crossed love, the film will also include — what else? — a musical showdown between the two camps.
"American Idol" judge Kara DioGuardi has been tapped to pen music for the movie, as well as Toby Gad and a slew of other songwriters. The full soundtrack "will feature a mix of pop, rock, R&B and hip-hop songs."
Last month, the Jonas Brothers addressed rumors that little brother Frankie (a.k.a. "Bonus Jonas") may be joining the cast. "Frankie, being in the movie? There's talks of that. I don't know," Joe said. "He might just do his own movie." Looks Joe wasn't lying: Frankie's movie "Ponyo" — in which he co-stars with Miley Cyrus' little sis Noah — premieres in limited theaters on August 14.
