‘Boy Meets World’ Sequel Spoilers: ‘Girl Meets World’ Leaks Casting News; Find Out What Cory Will Be Doing!
"Boy Meets World" only went off the air 12 years ago, but Cory and Topanga are all grown up! Earlier this week fans of the long running series learned that Ben Savage and Danielle Fishel are making their way back to the screen...and they have kids!
TVLine reported that a "Boy Meets World" sequel called "Girl Meets World" is being developed by the Disney Channel. The show would follow the pre-teen daughter of Cory (Ben Savage) and Topanga (Danielle Fishel). While little information has been revealed and the original stars still aren't officially signed on, Entertainment Weekly has got their hands on some spoiler-filled casting breakdowns!
Disney is currently working on casting two pre-teen girls -- Riley Matthews and Maya.
Riley, 13, is Cory and Topanga's youngest child who is juggling "obstacles that life throws her way" while in the seventh grade. Some of these obstacles include her dad...who happens to be her seventh grade history teacher (Is Cory following in the footsteps of Mr. Feeny?) and her eighth grade brother, Elliot, who may be a bit of a know it all.
The 13-year-old is described as "adorable" and "fiercely loyal to her friend." Although her dad teaching may be considered an obstacle, the casting breakdown says that nothing can "dampen her bright spirit and eternal optimism."
Maya, 13, seems to be a little different than Riley. Although best friends, Maya is "darker and less trusting off the world." The pre-teen is an only child and never knew her father.
It's easy for "Boy Meets World" fans to look at Maya as the "Sean" of the series. "Dark and edgy," Maya is not a good student, but definitely a loyal friend.
