Milo Manheim<\/strong> wants his Zombies 4<\/em> costar Meg Donnelly<\/strong> to break the franchise\u2019s Dancing With the Stars<\/em><\/a> curse.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou know the Zombies<\/em> curse on Dancing With the Stars<\/em> is we\u2019re always going to be runner-up,\u201d Manheim, 24, exclusively told Us Weekly<\/em> ahead of the July 10 Disney Channel premiere of Zombies 4: Dawn of the Vampires<\/em>, adding that if he were to pick someone to be on the upcoming season of the dance competition series, it would be Donnelly, 24.<\/p>\n

\u201cI would either send Meg if she wanted to do it because [she] would redeem it for all of us and go win, or I would love to see Trevor<\/strong> [Tordjman<\/strong>],\u201d he said. \u201cNot even because he\u2019s a good dancer \u2014 because he is a fantastic dancer \u2014 but because of who he is. I think he would just kill.\u201d<\/p>\n

Donnelly concurred, adding, \u201cPeople would love him. He should do it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Manheim was the first of the Disney Channel Original Movie franchise\u2019s cast to appear on DWTS<\/em>, working his way to fan-favorite status during season 27 in 2018. However, he and partner Witney Carson<\/strong> ultimately finished in second place behind Bobby Bones<\/strong> and Sharna Burgess<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Six years later, Manheim\u2019s Zombies<\/em> costar Chandler Kinney<\/strong> competed in season 33 with partner Brandon Armstrong<\/strong>, finishing in third place despite being a front-runner the entire season.<\/p>\n

Outside of the Disney Channel universe, Manheim and Donnelly would like to see a \u201clittle kid\u201d compete on the upcoming season to mix things up.<\/p>\n

\u201cI would also like to see The Rizzler<\/strong>,\u201d Manheim told Us<\/em>, agreeing with Donnelly\u2019s suggestion of the young social media personality. \u201cI do want to see somebody little on it. I want to see some 8-year-old, whoever it is, with Val<\/strong> [Chmerkovskiy<\/strong>].\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\t<\/h3>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n\t\t\tThe pressure is on for Dancing With the Stars to top the record-breaking success of season 33 \u2014 and Us has some ideas for how season 34 can up the ante. Two celebrity contestants have already been revealed, with Robert Irwin and influencer Alix Earle vying for the coveted mirrorball trophy when DWTS returns to [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Malachi Barton<\/strong> and Freya Skye<\/strong>, who are new additions to the Zombies<\/em> world, have their own thoughts about who should be on the upcoming DWTS<\/em> season.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m really excited because Alix Earle<\/strong>\u2019s doing it,\u201d Skye, 15, told Us<\/em>. \u201cMalachi will have a fight if I don\u2019t pick him right now, so Malachi for Dancing With the Stars<\/em> 2025.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m ready!\u201d Barton, 18, excitedly exclaimed in reply, proposing fellow Disney star Joshua Colley<\/strong> in addition to himself.<\/p>\n

\u201c[Joshua\u2019s] energy would just be the most infectious thing on the dance floor,\u201d Skye agreed. \u201cNow this is probably not going to happen, something just popped into my mind. I would love to see Harry Styles<\/strong> do it. I feel like he would be great.\u201d<\/p>\n
