'Girl Meets World' Premiere Date Announced, New Trailer Released (VIDEO)

"Girl Meets World," the long-anticipated follow-up series to "Boy Meets World" will premiere next month on the Disney Channel, a representative has confirmed. The series will feature several familiar faces from "Boy Meets World" and introduce those faces to a new generation.

The show will feature Ben Savage and Danielle Fishel as their familiar characters Cory and Topanga Matthews and their two children, Riley (Rowan Blanchard) and Auggie (August Maturo), as well as Riley's best friend Maya (Sabrina Carpenter). Cory's parents, Amy and Alan (Betsy Randle and William Russ) will make an appearance, as will Cory's best friend, Sean Hunter (Rider Strong).

Audiences that grew up with Cory and Topanga are thrilled to see where their lives have taken them. Cory now works as a teacher in New York City – the original "Boy Meets World" series left off with the newlyweds moving to the big city. Perhaps Cory's interest in teaching is in part due to his relationship with neighbor and teacher Mr. Feeney, who is now a series regular on "Girl Meets World."
