‘Zoey 101’ Forged Reunites For ‘Zoey 102’
As a result of the recognition of Nickelodeon’s “Zoey 101,” fans begged the network and the forged to return together for a reboot.
After years of asking, the project got here to fruition in 2023, as many original forged members, including Jamie Lynn Spears, Erin Sanders, Sean Flynn, and Christopher Massey, starred within the romantic comedy movie.
While Victoria Justice was not a part of the movie since it “didn’t work out timing-wise,” she said she still supported her former costars.

When talking to PEOPLE Magazine, Victoria Justice revealed she “was supporting [the cast]” during “Zoey 102.”

“All of us have a gaggle chat that we’ll pop in on sometimes and chat about stuff,” she told the magazine. “That is all the time fun when that goes off, and gets really energetic, and we’re all chiming in. It’s like old times, which is basically cute. But yeah, they’re all great. We’re all due for a reunion, of course.”
While she keeps in contact with a lot of her costars, she is unlikely to check with Alexa Nikolas, who starred alongside Justice on “Zoey 101.”

When Victoria Justice joined the forged of “Zoey 101,” Alexa Nikolas said she was initially “stoked” as her mom dated her uncle back. “We were best friends for the higher half of the second season, after which the girl dynamic culture, mean girl situation, ended up happening again together with her and Jamie [Lynn Spears],” she said on the H3 Podcast, per BuzzFeed.
“They were bullying me. At one point, Victoria and I were totally wonderful, then I do not know what happened — it was literally a boy conversation, ” she added. “I remember it being so teenage girl a few boy — I show as much as set the subsequent day, and I remember opening up the trailer and seeing Victoria turn around and laugh and whisper into Jamie’s ear.”

Victoria Justice Recalls Her Time On Nickelodeon
Following the discharge of MAX’s “Quiet On Set: The Dark Side Of Kids TV” docuseries, Victoria Justice, who worked alongside Dan Schneider, addressed her “complex” relationship with the previous producer.
“Something that was very evident within the documentary is that Dan [Schneider] had a really large ego,” she told Marie Claire. “And sometimes that ego clouded his higher judgment and affected the way in which he treated people, and there have been times I felt like I used to be being treated unfairly.”
The Nickelodeon Actress Barely Speaks To Dan Schneider
Victoria Justice added that she has barely been in touch with Dan Schneider, though she receives occasional birthday texts.
“I’m not condoning any of his behavior,” she said. “At the tip of the day, my relationship with Dan is a really complex one: I met him after I was 12 years old, and he’s the person who gave me this big break. He completely modified my life. Almost certainly, I would not be here where I’m today if it weren’t for him and for him seeing something in me.”
Justice added, “For that, I’ll all the time be grateful. After watching his apology, I believe he recognizes that he did loads of things incorrect, and I believe if he could step back right into a time machine, he would do loads of things in a different way.”
