It showed that Troy is still pinning for Gabriella, Ryan is married with children and Taylor is still giving sage advice to a friend.

"We're living in a time of reboots and remakes and so I thought it would be fun to see what Troy and Gabriella have been doing these past 10 years," the creator of the teaser, hsmutube, explained. "Still wishing that one day, they all come back to do a reunion movie."
Tisdale talked about the video on her Twitter and commended hsmutube. She found the video amusing but fans tweeted back and shared how the fan-made teaser made them so emotional, especially since an actual reunion movie might never happen.
In 2016, Disney announced its plans to release a fourth "High School Musical" special. Since then, rumors have been afloat about the former cast members reprising their roles for a cameo but the studio has not made any comments on this.
The new movie will focus on a new generation of actors. Disney launched an open casting call last spring but the studio has not yet announced the actors picked from this search.
In 2018, "High School Musical" will mark the 10th anniversary of its first release. Disney plans to put out the new movie then, but the studio has not yet confirmed its exact air date.
