Camp Rock 2

Disney Channel will begin production later this summer on “Camp Rock 2 The Final Jam,” the sequel to the hit Disney Channel Original Movie “Camp Rock,” with Demi Lovato, Kevin Jonas, Joe Jonas and Nick Jonas reprising their starring roles. Joining the cast are Matthew “Mdot” Finley and Chloe Bridges. Also returning to the sequel’s cast are Meaghan Martin, Alyson Stoner, Anna Maria Perez de Tagle, Roshon Fegan, Daniel Fathers and Maria Canals-Barrera. “Camp Rock 2 The Final Jam” is scheduled to premiere in 2010 on Disney Channel.

The sequel’s storyline follows Mitchie, Shane, Jason, Nate and their friends as they return to Camp Rock for another great summer of music and fun. However they soon learn that a new state-of-the-art music/performance camp, Camp Star, has opened across the lake and has lured away many of Camp Rock instructors and campers — putting the future of Camp Rock in jeopardy.
And when Camp Star’s hotshot performer, Luke Williams, challenges Camp Rock to a musical showdown to see which camp really has the stronger musical talent, everyone prepares for the ultimate battle of the bands. Meanwhile, in a classic “Romeo and Juliet” twist, Nate falls for the daughter of the owner of the rival camp.

The movie’s soundtrack will feature a mix of pop, rock, R&B and hip-hop songs written by songwriters Mitch Allan, Adam Anders, Lyrica Anderson, Antonina Armato, Aris Aronchitis, Peer Astrom, Kara DioGuardi, Andy Dodd, Toby Gad, Nikki Hassman, Jamie Houston, Tim James, Jeannie Lurie, Chen Neeman, Kovasciar Nyvette, Steve Rushton, Dapo Torimiro and Adam Watts.

Alyson Stoner is crossing her fingers for Camp Rock 2

Alyson Stoner is crossing her fingers that when she heads up to Canada later this year to begin work on “Camp Rock 2,” the entire cast will be back to reprise their roles — that is, once the script gets written.
“We have no idea who is coming back,” Stoner told MTV News. “We hope that it’s the same group of people, ’cause we click so well, and I know once we get up to Canada again in the fall, it’s going to be showtime and we’re gonna put on the best performances we’ve ever done in our lives for everyone.”
Stoner is sure teen heartthrobs the Jonas Brothers will be back to make girls swoon for the sequel to the hit Disney Channel flick. And we figured that since she got to work with the guys so intimately on the first “Camp Rock,” she must know something about them the rest of us don’t already know.
“Well, I feel like by now, the Jonases are open books. Everyone knows everything about them — more than I do,” she said.
But she did manage to sum up the guys’ best traits for MTV News. “I’d say Nick is very passionate and focused and driven,” she said. “And Joe is a free sprit, but he’s also very supportive when you need him there as a friend and brother. And Kevin is so gentlemanly and so respectful of everyone’s privacy, or when they need something to happen, he gets right on it. And I admire them and respect them so much.”
Stoner also admires their youngest brother, Frankie “Bonus” Jonas, who could be getting in on the act once “Camp Rock 2? starts production. “He deserves it,” she said of the rumors that he might join the cast. “He works just as hard as the boys do.”
And Stoner insists that they are a hardworking bunch. “People think they’re living the life, but behind the camera and behind the scenes, they’re at work 24/7,” she said. “And if Frankie joins ‘Camp Rock 2,’ by all means, let him steal the show, ’cause he’s awesome. He’s a great little kid.”
