"we all kind of pulled out all the stops," Monique Coleman said in a conversation with The Hartford Courant last week. "all of us coming back to this one, recommitting ourselves to the project that helped us all attain our successes, it's an expression of gratitude to the Disney Channel for making us superstars."

Coleman added that after the brilliant success of the first High School Musical, they are all aware that "he stakes were higher, and the bar was definitely raised" this time around.

The 26 year old actress portrays Taylor McKessie on the film, East High Science Club Leader and friend of Gabriella Montez (Vanessa Anne Hudgens). Her other television credits include The Reading Room, Boston Public, Gilmore Girls, Veronica Mars and The Suite Life of Zack and Cody.

22 year old Lucas Grabeel also told The Hartford Courant that this time, the musical numbers and dance moves were definitely harder than ever.

"it was a lot harder regarding technical things we do," said Grabeel. "The dancing was harder, the music more challenging… every character is involved more."

In the sequel of the Disney hit, Lucas Grabeel reprises his role as Ryan Evans, the slightly better half of his fraternal twin sister, Sharpay (Ashley Tisdale). his other acting credits include Boston Legal, Veronica Mars, 'Til Death and Alice.

The first movie was more focused on the blossoming relationship between the two main characters played by Vanessa Anne Hudgens and Zac Efron. this time, however, Lucas Grabeel said that fans can expect to see more input from the other characters in the foreground in the much awaited sequel.

"The first High School Musical was much more about Troy [Zac Efron] and Gabriella — her struggling with her new school and his struggle choosing between basketball and singing," Grabeel said. "this one is more about a group of people."

But despite the raised expectations, the actors and actresses of the show still had a lot of fun in the creation of the sequel, Monique Coleman said.

"I think there is an idea people have about what they expect from this movie," said Coleman. "I feel proud of the fact we didn't fall into the trap of allowing ourselves into being pressured into anything other than having a fantastic time."

Jeri Ryan joined the cast of “Leverage” last fall as an experienced con artist named Tara. the sultry star returns for six episodes beginning tonight at 10 on TNT as she temporarily replaces actress Gina Bellman, who is on maternity leave.

It’s a situation Ryan is familiar with.

“I always joke that I’m the designated pinch hitter,” Ryan said in a recent telephone interview. “ ‘Shark’ was the only TV series that I ever did from the pilot. every other series, I was added midway through. I’m kind of old hat at that by now.”

She doesn’t have much in common with a woman who makes her living as a grifter, but that’s what makes the part so much fun.

“Tara’s very street-smart,” she said. “She’s very savvy. She’s very in your face and doesn’t really care what anybody thinks of her. I love that she’s completely unapologetic about using her sex appeal or using whatever she needs to do to get the job done. I just love her. She’s a fun skin to inhabit because she is so different from me and so much more out there than I am in real life.”

Despite her roles on “Boston Public,” “The O.C.” and “Shark,” Ryan is still most recognized for playing Seven of nine on “Star Trek: Voyager.” But she doesn’t mind.

“That’s a blessing as an actor,” she said. “To be able to play a character that became so iconic is really cool and to be able to have touched a lot of people is a pretty special thing.”

Landing a role on “Boston Public” weeks after “Star Trek: Voyager” ended helped her escape being typecast.

“ ‘Star Trek’ is notorious for pigeonholing its actors and getting them stuck in just that one role, so that was a big concern when I signed on to the show to begin with,” Ryan, 40, said. “I was just really, really lucky. I was so relieved when I got ‘Boston Public.’ Like, OK, I am going to have a career after this.”

The mother of a 15-year-old son with ex-husband Jack Ryan and a 21-month-old daughter with husband-chef Christophe Eme said she would love to be a regular on a TV series again, but is looking for a show that will keep her in Los Angeles near her family.

Until then, she would be delighted to return to Portland, Ore., to film more episodes of “Leverage.”

“I absolutely think the door is left open (for Tara’s return), and I would come back in a heartbeat,” she said. “I loved this character. I loved working with these people.”
