Demi Lovato Confirms Cameo as Mitchie in ‘Camp Rock 3’: ‘Y’all Miss Me?’
Surprise! Demi Lovato is reprising her role as Mitchie Torres in Camp Rock 3.
The singer and actress shared a photo of herself in the film via X on Monday, August 10, writing, “Y’all miss me? Xoxo, Mitchie.”
Lovato, 33, was previously announced as an executive producer on the film, which premieres Thursday, August 13, on Disney Channel and will be available to stream on Disney+ the following day.
The Disney Channel alum’s post came the same day that she and the Jonas Brothers — Kevin, 38, ex Joe, 36, and Nick, 33 — reunited for the Los Angeles premiere of the new movie, which comes 18 years after the original Camp Rock movie and 16 years after Camp Rock 2: The Final Jam.
The Jonas Brothers reprise their roles as fictional boy band Connect 3 as they return to Camp Rock searching for a new opening act for their upcoming tour. The film shines a light on a new generation of gifted campers while paying homage to the original films.
“We wanted to find the right balance of how much she should be in the film and what Mitchie’s involvement looked like,” director Veronica Rodriguez told The Hollywood Reporter in an interview published on Monday, August 10.
“Her character literally says in the movie, to her mom, ‘This isn’t about me, it’s about them. It’s their time to shine. This is the new generation of campers,’” Rodriguez added. “With Mitchie and Connect 3, we wanted them to be ingrained and necessary for the story but also leave enough room and space for the world to fall in love with the new generation of campers.”
Disney announced production on Camp Rock 3 was underway in Vancouver in September 2025.
“Camp Rock is an important part of the Disney Channel Original Movie legacy, with unforgettable music, energetic storytelling and characters that live in the hearts of fans to this day,” said Ayo Davis, the president of Disney Branded Television, in a statement at the time. “Bringing it back with Kevin, Joe, Nick and Demi is such a full-circle moment, and we can’t wait to reintroduce this world to a new generation.”
In January, Lovato opened up about being a mentor to the new generation of Camp Rock stars.
“I wish that I had gotten advice, and I think it would have saved me a lot of trial and errors, like, figuring out s*** my own kind of thing,” she said on the “Not Gonna Lie” podcast. “I’m grateful for the path I’ve had without a mentor [and] without advice from others. I would love to be a mentor to somebody and guide someone through the journey that I went on.”
The “Cool for the Summer” singer added, “I actually did give, like, a mini pep talk to the new cast of Camp Rock when I first met them. I met them as a group and I was, like, ‘Hey guys,’ and I gave them some advice like, ‘Don’t be afraid to ask for time off, like, take care of yourself first. It’s really important that you take care of your mental health so you can do the other things you want to do, like performing and acting.’”
Camp Rock 3 premieres on Thursday, August 13, at 8 p.m. ET on the Disney Channel and is available to stream the next day on Disney+.
