“The Reunion Reboot: Uncovering the Mysterious Connections Between the Original Goosebumps Cast and the Anthology Revamp”

**New Article: “Interview: Goosebumps Cast on Season 2, Anthology Format, and More”**

As the original cast of Disney’s “Goosebumps” series prepares to return for Season 2, we spoke with the new cast members to get their thoughts on the anthology format, how they prepared to join the show, and more.

**The Interview**

Ana Ortiz, Elijah M. Cooper, Galilia La Salvia, Francesca Noll, Stoney Braden, and Jayden Bartels shared their experiences joining the show, which is inspired by R.L. Stine’s hit horror novels. When asked about how they prepared to take on the roles, Ana Ortiz, who plays Trey, said, “I think it’s natural to try to keep it as fresh as possible. But it’s been a great season so far.”

Elijah M. Cooper, who plays an unknown character, added, “It’s a really great watch. I’ve watched the first season several times, and it’s really iconic.”

**The Cast’s Approach to the Anthology Format**

As the series shifts to an anthology format, the cast had to find a new approach to their roles. Galilia La Salvia, who plays Frankie, recalled, “I did watch the first season, and I remember talking about it when we first got on set. We’d say, ‘Did you see the suspense? Did you see that? It was really fun.'”

Francesca Noll, who plays an unknown character, echoed La Salvia’s sentiments, saying, “I’m someone who generally looks at things from a fresh perspective. I saw the pilot, but I wanted to go into it in a different way because it’s a completely different world. One of the great things is that ‘Goosebumps’ has so many books. So, there are just so many stories we could tell for 20 seasons.”

**Executive Producers’ Thoughts on the Anthology Format**

Robert Letterman and Hillary Winston, the executive producers, spoke to us about the challenges of starting from scratch in the same universe. Letterman explained, “When we turned it into an anthology, it really fit the essence of ‘Goosebumps.’ So, if you’re a fan of the book, you know that R.L. Stine didn’t write a happily ever after story at the end of the book. He left a cliffhanger or a twist. So, when we saw the finale of season one, it felt like the perfect ‘Goosebumps’ ending to the storyline.”

**Conclusion**

As the new cast of “Goosebpoons” prepares to take on the challenge of revamping the series, they’re focused on creating a fresh and exciting new story while honoring the spirit of the original. With the success of Season 1, fans can expect even more thrills and chills as the series delves into the world of R.L. Stine’s beloved books.
