Tisdale to remake 'Teen Witch'
STORY TOOLS 
More from MoviesAshley Tisdale has big post "High School Musical" graduation plans, and it doesn't involve college.
The 22-year-old will star in the revamp of United Artists' "Teen Witch" as well as be executive producer on a project about the mall for the Disney Channel, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Tisdale will take the Robyn Lively role from the 1989 film "Teen Witch" in which an unpopular girl discovers she's descended from the Salem witches and then uses her powers to get back at the snobby girls who shunned her and to win the heart of the captain of the football team.
The untitled mall project is based on her earlier life working at the mall, but Tisdale has no plans to star in it.
This will be in keeping with her bid to do more producing by entering negotiations for a one-year first-look deal with "American Idol" company FremantleMedia North America. With Fremantle, she'll help develop nonscripted shows aimed at the younger demographic.
Tisdale just wrapped her theatrical film debut, the fantasy comedy "They Came From Upstairs" and will start shooting the big-screen sequel "High School Musical 3: Senior Year."
