Miley Cyrus open to acting comeback if "opportunity or script or character was right"

Miley Cyrus says she'd return to acting for the right role, discusses Golden Globe nod, and plans for Hannah Montana's 20th anniversary.

"If the opportunity or the script or the character was right... I'm totally there. - Miley Cyrus"

Washington DC, January 6

Singer and actor Miley Cyrus has said she would be open to returning to acting if the right opportunity presents itself, nearly six years after her last on-screen appearance, according to E! News.

Speaking to Entertainment Tonight on the sidelines of the 37th annual Palm Springs International Film Festival Awards, Cyrus said a comeback to acting would depend entirely on the script and the character.

"If the opportunity or the script or the character was right or designed in a way that it would make sense, I'm totally there," the Grammy-winning singer said.

Cyrus last appeared on screen in a 2019 episode of 'Black Mirror'. At the Palm Springs event, the 33-year-old also reacted to her 2026 Golden Globe nomination for her song 'Dream As One' from Avatar: Fire and Ash, for which she received the Outstanding Artistic Achievement award.

"It's just all really exciting for me," she said. "Everything that I could have dreamed is a reality and so everyday I'm grateful," as quoted by E! News.

The singer also hinted at special plans marking the 20th anniversary of Hannah Montana, the Disney Channel series that made her a household name. The anniversary celebrations are set to take place in March. Cyrus recently debuted a blonde hair transformation inspired by the character's iconic look, complete with signature bangs.

Reflecting on the show's legacy, Cyrus said the anniversary would be meaningful both for her and her fans. "It's very rare that someone grows up with their fanbase," she said, adding that she wants to honour the long-standing relationship she has built with audiences over the years, E! News reported.

Cyrus also addressed speculation about a possible reboot of Hannah Montana, saying she does not see the character being recast. "This is the only Hannah," she said in a recent interview.

The artist confirmed her engagement to musician Maxx Morando in December, E! News reported.

Smart move to be selective. The film industry, whether Hollywood or Bollywood, needs more actors who choose quality over quantity. Her music career is going so well, she should only return to acting for a project that truly challenges her.

Honestly, I respect her for this. It shows maturity. Many stars just take any role for the paycheck. Waiting for the right script is the mark of a true artist. Also, congrats to her on the engagement! 🎉

The 20-year anniversary of Hannah Montana... makes me feel old! It's lovely that she wants to honor that relationship with fans. Not many artists acknowledge their roots so gracefully. The blonde hair throwback is a fun touch.

While I understand the nostalgia, I hope if she returns to acting, it's for a completely new and mature role. She's evolved so much from her Disney days. A Black Mirror-style project would be perfect—something that makes you think.

It's nice to see a celebrity being so grounded and grateful. "Everything that I could have dreamed is a reality" – what a beautiful thing to say. We could all use that attitude. Best of luck to her, in both her personal and professional life.
