Grab your pink lockers and get ready to shine, because class is officially back in session!
Ever since Netflix first announced that Victorious fan-favorite Daniella Monet would be stepping back into the spotlight as Trina Vega, we’ve been counting down the days until we could return to Hollywood’s most iconic performing arts high school.
Now, the wait is almost over. Netflix has officially dropped the first trailer for Hollywood Arts, giving us a front-row seat to all the drama, big dreams, and comedic chaos heading our way when the series premieres on October 15, 2026.
Could this finally be Trina Vega’s big break? In the upcoming spin-off, our favorite overly confident, struggling actress returns to her high school alma mater as an… unqualified substitute teacher.
While she may lack formal teaching credentials to guide a new generation of prodigies, Trina knows one golden rule: the show must go on! Though she initially clashes with her ambitious students while chasing her own dreams, Trina unexpectedly ends up inspiring the next generation of stars.
Monet, who also serves as an Executive Producer on the Paramount Television Studios series, shared her excitement for the revival: “I’m proud of what we made. We worked really hard. It’s funny. It’s all the things I wanted it to be, and I always kept in mind the original audience throughout the entire process.”
Nostalgic fans are in for a huge treat! The official trailer confirms that several fan-favorite Victorious cast members are stepping back into their iconic roles alongside Daniella Monet. Viewers can look forward to seeing Yvette Nicole Brown return as the unforgettable Principal Helen Dubois, Eric Lange stepping back into the eccentric shoes of acting teacher Erwin Sikowitz, and Matt Bennett reprising his role as ventriloquist Robbie Shapiro.
They’ll be sharing the screen with a dynamic main cast that includes Monet, Alyssa Miles, Erika Swayze, Emmy Liu-Wang, Peyton Jackson, and Martin Kamm. Plus, the new school year introduces a fresh wave of guest stars and fan favorites to the Victorious universe, with appearances from Kira Kosarin, Lexi Rivera, Sofie Dossi, and Taylen Biggs.
If you can’t get the theme song out of your head, you’re not alone. The lead single “Here To Stay” is available right now to stream. Even better? The full 16-track album, Hollywood Arts (Soundtrack from the series), drops on October 15th via Republic Records: Kids & Family, right alongside the Netflix premiere. Expect a mix of upbeat pop anthems, emotional ballads, and standout ensemble performances from the talented new cast.
