Is Zendaya too old to begin a Disney show?

Sure there was Good Luck Charlie and Jessie, but both of those shows were also anchored with younger kids who usually drove the stories.

But with this... Zendaya is going to be 19 this year and the show centers entirely around her. I don't think she's going to become the next Miley Cyrus as far as her behavior but she is a pop singer who also wants to apparently branch away from Disny with her billboard singles. And that's going to be hard To juggle while on Disney. Basically this could lead to a Sam and Cat fiasco. Centering a kids show around 20 year old adults was a plan that ultimately got Nick burned pretty badly and in response, all of their new shows star 10-13 year olds.

I'm saying basically that this show could lead to Disney's very own Ariana Grande fiasco. The show gets canned after just a few months because the star is an adult who is having success outside of the network. I guess this show will have no problem as long as Zendaya has no success outside of Disney lol

The actor of Ernie is the same age as Zendaya (K.C. mentioned in the show that Ernie is full-grown). Also Mitch Bilsky from Henry Danger is a teenager, but the actor is 26. And there's many more examples. Many actors can have a broad age range.
