- Zac Efron as Troy Bolton. It's hard to believe now, but the Disney Channel Original Movie was the now-heartthrob's breakout role. Before playing Troy Bolton, Efron had a few small parts on shows like CSI: Miami and The Guardian, but he shot to fame following High School Musical's success.
- Vanessa Hudgens as Gabriella Montez. Back when she went by Vanessa Anne Hudgens, the actress played Gabrielle Montez, the academically inclined newbie to East High who got involved with the school's musical theater program — and Efron's Troy.
- Corbin Bleu as Chad Danforth. Even though his High School Musical character did not approve of his best friend Troy's theatrical pursuits, in real life, Bleu went on to star in a number of Broadway productions: In the Heights (2010), Godspell (2012), Holiday Inn (2016) and the 2019 revival of Kiss Me, Kate.
- Ashley Tisdale as Sharpay Evans. Tisdale played Sharpay Evans, who was all about getting the most attention possible. Before High School Musical, Tisdale had already been acting on The Suite Life of Zack and Cody.
