Ben Savage and Danielle Fishel talk 'Girl Meets World' excitement
Fans of the 90s TV series Boy Meets World, many of whom are now in their 20s and 30s, are eagerly anticipating its sequel series, Girl Meets World, which hits the Disney Channel this summer. And apparently, the actors are as excited as the fans!
E! News caught up with Ben Savage and Danielle Fishel, who return as Cory and Topanga Matthews, respectively, on the red carpet at the Radio Disney Music Awards on Saturday. The two talked about returning to pay older versions of their famous characters, now with children, and the fun they have had thus far.
"We're having a ball. It's been a really crazy, but exciting experience," Savage said. "It's not often you can really go revisit a chapter from your childhood and just do it over again. And we're getting to do that, so it's been a lot of fun!"
Fishel echoed the sentiments of her on-screen husband. "I don't think there are very many people who get the opportunity to create a character that so many people remember and then also get to revisit it."
E! Online has a video of the interview here.
The site also recently posted an exclusive first look at the trailer for series, which features Riley (Rowan Blanchard) and best friend Maya (Sabrina Carpenter) trying to sneak out the bedroom window. But Cory (Ben Savage) has seen his best friend Shawn (Rider Strong) pull that move, so he's outside waiting to catch the two girls. They have a brief but sweet conversation until Topanga (Danielle Fishel) appears in the doorway.
