“Camp Rock 2 The Final Jam” will begin production this summer and debut next year on Disney Channel according to the Hollywood Reporter. Paul Hoen, who directed the 2007 Disney Channel movie “Jump In!” will direct the movie and the sequel’s script was written by Dan Berendsen (“Hannah Montana The Movie”) with Karin Gist and Regina Hicks, the duo who wrote “Jump In!” with Doreen Spicer. Gist and Hicks also wrote the first “Camp Rock” with Julie Brown and Paul Brown.

The plot will find the characters played by the Jonas Brothers and Demi Lovato returning to Camp Rock, only to discover that some of the students and instructors have ditched it for nearby rival Camp Star.

Some other major players returning for the sequel include Meaghan Jette Martin, Maria Canals-Barrera, Roshon Fegan, Anna Maria Perez de Tagle, and Alyson Stoner. Daniel Fathers is back as Camp Rock’s head honcho.

Joining the cast for “Final Jam” are popular hip-hop artist Matthew “Mdot” Finley and Chloe Bridges, an accomplished 17-year-old classical pianist. Mdot plays the reigning hot-shot singer across the lake at Camp Star who challenges Camp Rock to a musical showdown.

The “Romeo and Juliet” moment comes when Camp Rock’s Nate (Nick Jonas) falls for Dana (Bridges), the daughter of Camp Star’s owner.
