Disney Channel Orders Comedy Pilot ‘Growing Up And Down’

EXCLUSIVE: Disney Channel is staying in the family for the leads of its newest pilot, Growing Up And Down, which has been given green light. Raini Rodriguez (Austin & Ally) and Adam Irigoyen (Shake It Up) will topline the family comedy as adult parents who suddenly and  inexplicably are transformed into teenagers again. Cecilia Balagot and Noah Centineo co-star as their teenage kids, who now must navigate high school with their parents — a couple with the daunting task of re-living their adolescence under the critical eyes of their children. Barry Wernick and Steve Leff wrote the pilot, production on which will begin in August.
