Luke Benward Opens Up About Growing Up With His Fans

Luke Benward Opens Up About Growing Up With His Fans

We’ve all seen the tweets about Luke Benward and fans arguing just who was here first stanning the Dumplin’ star.

In a new interview, the 24-year-old actor revealed that he was laughing over all of them.

“The funniest thing is basically people just going back and forth between fans who had been following me over the last ‘X’ number of years and then the fans who just followed me,” he shared with Teen Vogue. “There were all these people who were like, ‘You’re just on the bandwagon blah blah blah!’ It was so funny to see them figure out who the OG fans are. (Laughs.).”

Luke added about how he’s still connecting with his fans years after his last Disney Channel project.

“It’s honestly fun,” he says. “Honestly, the older I get the more I’m able to really understand it and have this newfound respect. Because I’ve been doing it since I was a kid, all the people who are now fans of me have kind of grown up with me in a weird way.”

“We’re the same age, we kind of went through the same things at the same time. There is that interesting dynamic.”

TELL JJJ: Are you a new Luke fan, or have you been one from the beginning?

Luke Benward's Favorite Disney Role Was Turned Into A Movie With A Totally Different Cast!

Luke Benward was been in so many Disney projects that it’s really hard to keep count of them all.

But, the 23-year-old actor just revealed his favorite role of them all and it’s going to shock you – it was Zed, from an unaired pilot called Zombies and Cheerleaders. Sound familiar? It should!

“No one ever saw it because it was a pilot,” Luke shared with Teen Vogue about the project, which was recently turned in the DCOM, Zombies.

He adds, “It was originally a very whimsical and cool pilot. It was directed by Todd Strauss-Schulson, who right before that did a Harold and Kumar Christmas movie. So he was very eccentric and like, not on the Disney brand. It was a musical and it was called Zombies and Cheerleaders.”

Luke was slated to play the role of Zed, which was played by Milo Manheim in the movie version.

“I played Zed, the guy, and it was this whole Ferris Bueller thing where I kind of wake up and I’m talking to the camera and walking the audience through the opening song and introducing everyone. It was just a really different show for Disney that I was really proud of.”

We need to see this unaired pilot now!
