Set high atop snow-capped mountains in the adrenaline-fueled world of competitive snowboarding, the Disney Channel Original Movie “Cloud 9” tells the inspiring story of two snowboarders who must overcome self-doubt to learn that achieving their dreams is possible
Executive-produced by Ashley Tisdale, and starring Luke Benward (“Ravenswood,” “Good Luck Charlie”) and Dove Cameron (“Liv and Maddie”), “Cloud 9” premieres FRIDAY, JANUARY 17 (8:00 p.m., ET/PT) on Disney Channel.
The evening of the movie’s premiere – part of Disney Channel’s annual “JaNEWary” programming event – will include a new episode of the hit series, “Liv and Maddie,” the premiere of Disney Channel’s comedy series, “I Didn’t Do It,” and a first-look at the upcoming game show, “Disney’s Win, Lose or Draw.”
“Cloud 9” follows two unlikely friends, Kayla Morgan, a prima donna snowboarder who was just dropped from her competition team, and Will Cloud, a former snowboarding champion who is struggling after a career-ending wipeout. The two meet when Kayla is forced to work at the local dog grooming shop owned by Will’s mother. Determined to become a better boarder, Kayla finds an unexpected mentor in Will, who she realizes can help take her to the next level. So in exchange for help fixing up the dog grooming shop, Will reluctantly accepts Kayla’s pleas to train her and introduces her to a regimen that tests her true commitment to the sport. As the two grow closer, Kayla’s efforts convince Will that he, too, has the power to regain his championship status and that nothing is impossible.
Beginning Monday, December 16, viewers can drop in on the virtual slopes by visiting disneychannel.com/cloud9. The site will feature a host of activities, including the game “Fire and Ice.”
In addition to Benward and Cameron, the movie stars Mike C. Manning (“Hawaii Five-O,” “Crash & Bernstein”) as Nick Swift, Kiersey Clemons (“Austin & Ally,” “Good Luck Charlie”) as Skye Sailor and Jeffrey Nordling (“Body of Proof,” “24”) as Sebastian Swift.

Fan favorite Olivia Holt (Disney XD’s “Kickin’ It” and Radio Disney Music Award winner) moves to new series role and a new reverse storytelling approach for Disney Channel in “I Didn’t Do It,” a comedy that tells of the hilarious twists and turns in the lives of five teenagers – ultra-competitive fraternal twins and their three best friends. Each episode begins at the end of a predicament, just after an adventure has gone absurdly haywire, just as twins Lindy and Logan and their friends Jasmine, Garrett and Delia somehow try to explain — with flashback scenes — exactly what happened. “I Didn’t Do It” series premiere is part of Disney Channel’s “JaNEWary” programming event FRIDAY, JANUARY 17 (9:40 p.m., ET/PT), immediately following the premiere of the Disney Channel Original Movie “Cloud 9.” Beginning January 26, the series will join Disney Channel’s Sunday night family comedy block (8:30 p.m., ET/PT).
