"I think that she's growing with the show, and I think it's such a great platform for her," the 17-year-old songstress told the publication. Although she admitted that she has yet to talk to Cyrus about plans after "Hannah", the "Princess Protection Program" actress stated, "And she's lived up to it as wonderfully as she could, and I think she continues to carry it, but she's ready for other things."
Miley Cyrus herself has expressed her desire to be involved in more mature motion picture projects. In an interview for the February issue of Harper's Bazaar magazine, the star of "The Last Song" revealed that she wants "to do edgier movies". The 17-year-old actress added she wants to do "movies where you walk away feeling fulfilled."
While time for the Hannah Montana depicter to move on is closing in, Selena Gomez stated that her character, Alex Russo, is still evolving. " 'Wizards of Waverly Place' is getting much more mature in terms of our comedy, [but] we are still keeping the youthfulness of our characters," she shared. "I just feel like we're all kind of growing, so the characters are evolving."
