Ryan Newman is one of the latest adorable young stars to break into Hollywood. You might’ve seen her playing young Miley in a few episodes of Hannah Montana, but after scoring lead roles in the 2006 movies Monster House and Zoom, Ryan should be helming her own show in no time!
Born To Act
As soon as she could walk and talk, Ryan knew she wanted to act. Her parents were hesitant about getting into the Hollywood game, but Ryan’s passion convinced them.

Zeke And Luther
In the Disney XD smash, Zeke and Luther, Ryan stars as Zeke’s pesky younger sister, Ginger.

She also loves telling their next-door neighbor Olivia Masterson about how much Zeke likes her.
Good Luck Charlie
Ryan will star in an epsiode of the hit Disney Channel show Good Luck Charlie. In “Kit and Kaboodle,” Ryan plays Kit, the first girl that Gabe has ever had a crush on. He likes her so much that he lies and says he’s an only child whose parents are divorced, just like her!
