A hallmark of Oliver Oken was his unapologetic embrace of early 2000s fashion trends. He generally wore baggy shorts and hoodies or vibrant sweaters with button-down shirts, accompanied by a long, side-swept hairstyle. However, now a decade removed from the "Hannah Montana" finale, Mitchel Musso has let go of these tacky threads that he once donned in real life. At 30 years old, he prefers a shorter, differently styled hairdo and has adopted the more simplistic, monochromatic wardrobe that has risen in popularity throughout the late 2010s and early 2020s.

Even though Mitchel Musso looks nothing like his Oliver Oken alter-ego, that doesn't mean he shed his Disney Channel skin once "Hannah Montana" came to a close. He starred in the first two seasons of "Pair of Kings" and hosted six episodes of "Prankstars," but his tenure on both shows — as well as his attempted music career — came to a halt due to a 2011 DUI. Thankfully, he owned up to his mistake and has become a regular on both "Phineas and Ferb" and "Milo Murphy's Law" as Jeremy Johnson, Wally, and various other characters after the fact. 

Most recently, Mitchel Musso popped up on an episode of "The Rise," and he'll lend his vocal talents to a series based on the "Cars" franchise set for a 2022 premiere. All these years later, he has proven himself to be so much more than Oliver Oken — completely reinventing his image while remaining in touch with his Disney roots.
