Lucas Till
Miley Cyrus' magical power that makes any boy she touches instantly famous have worked again; this time on Hannah Montana: The Movie co-star Lucas Till!
Eighteen-year-old Lucas, who plays Miley's love interest, Travis Brody, has gone from cute unknown to cute very well known.
Aside from the fact that he's in the new HM flick, he could just be the next Zac Efron. And he's super-hot. Here are the vital things you need to know about Lucas Till!
He's smarter than your average child star
Lucas has been acting since he was 10 years old, when he starred in his first commercial. But there has been none of this "school on set" business for him! He attended high school just like a normal teen, and graduated last year.
His career got off to a really good start
Lucas' first major film role was Jack Cash in Walk the Line, the Oscar-winning film starring Joaquin Phoenix and Reese Witherspoon. While most actors starting out have to do parts in cheesy movies that go straight to DVD, Lucas was thrust onto the world stage and in front of the eyes of the best directors in Hollywood. No wonder he scored the part of Travis in Hannah Montana: The Movie!
Lucas loved working with Miley Cyrus!
"You can't describe the experience of working with Miley in one word," he told DisneySociety.com. "It was fun all the time. It was crazy and unpredictable all the time. It was just a good, overall experience. She is constantly doing something entertaining, whether she means to or not."

Lucas is tight with the other queen of teen, Taylor Swift
Lucas was super-lucky (although his cute looks may have had something to do with it) to score a starring role in Taylor Swift's music video for 'You Belong With Me'. He played a high school football star that Taylor's nerdy character was in love with. Seems all the gorgeous girls in Hollywood love Lucas!
He thinks being famous is really weird
Lucas may have starred alongside the most famous teen in Hollywood for his latest flick, but he's still not used to being a celebrity. He says his weirdest experience so far happened at a friend's place:
"It's refreshing going from getting picked on in middle school to getting my name screamed out across the street," he told People.com. "But to go to a friend's house and see his little sister with a poster of me on her wall, that's definitely weird."
Lucas had an OMG embarrassing moment while filming the music clip with Taylor Swift!
"There's one point where I'm supposed to catch the ball, right. Well I've got a full football team watching me and the bleachers are pretty full," he told Bop TV. "The first play I run out, miss the ball, and fall on my face. About five times later I catch the ball. I'm so excited, again fall on my face right in front of all these people!"
He's single!
Lucas confirmed to DisneySociety.com that, yes ladies, he definitely is single! But the good ones always get snapped up fast, so enjoy it while it lasts.
You can look forward to more Lucas goodness
Thankfully, Hannah Montana: The Movie isn't the last we'll be seeing of Lucas! He's just finished filming The Spy Next Door, so stay tuned for deets on when it will open in Australia.
