The Suite Life of Zack and Cody star Brenda Song has signed on to do a new film with House actress Lisa Edelstein. The film, Special Delivery, will air on Lifetime Movie Network most likely in December.
The movie centers on Maxine Carter (Edelstein), a bonded courier working in the Pacific Rim. Her next assignment has nothing to do with transporting evidence or life-saving organs but for delivering Alice (Song), a bratty teenager who's making her way from China to the United States to be with her mother. Upon reaching the U.S., Maxine realizes that a trap has been set up for the two of them, and becomes responsible for Alice's safety.

The Disney tween series The Suite Life of Zack and Cody is among those shows that have seen much success on the world wide web as it has on the small screen, which is why it is no surprise that writer and producer Danny Kallis, creator of the hit show, is protesting along with numerous industry writers and actors.
The primary aim of the strike is to increase the residuals writers receive from DVD sales, as well as to get studios and networks to give proper compensation for sales made via new media, which include internet downloads, IPTV streaming, smart phone programming, straight-to-internet content, and other “on-demand” online distribution methods.

In fact, for the upcoming holidays, Song intends on draping herself with red-and-green novelty print scarves, and not with sparkly sequins and lush feather boas, items that are characteristic of her onscreen persona.

Now, they lead the Disney hit series The Suite Life of Zack and Cody, and starring in the show has only made the twins even more popular.
Unlike some other youth stars, however, Dylan and Cole Sprouse have not allowed their fame to consume them, and amidst all the temptations of Hollywood, managed to maintain a commendable work ethic and sense of responsibility.

On screen, Ashley Tisdale is famously known as the extremely attractive teenage candy-counter girl on The Suite Life of Zack and Cody and the domineering antagonist of High School Musical. In real life, however, the 22-year-old actress is actually just a simple girl who has never gone down “the party-like-a-rockstar path so many young celebrities get sucked into.” In the October/November issue of Girl's Life magazine, she reveals a side of herself that not many viewers are aware of.
While many perceive her as a Hollywood glamour girl, Tisdale says that she's just a regular person who happens to act for a living. In fact, she stays clear of the glitz and glamour of showbiz and reveals that she's actually a homebody.
