Olivia Rodrigo officially exited her role as Nini on High School Musical: The Musical: The Series in season 3 — and there weren't any plans to bring her back for the final episodes.
“Oftentimes, I think the first time you’re in love, you think that’s the standard and it should last forever. My evolving thought is that Ricky and Gina are really in love for the first time together because they’ve experienced some of the world,” he exclusively told. “They’ve gotten a little pushed down. So much happens and it’s beautiful to be able to write this relationship — no holds barred.
”Federle continued: “I remember we had this thing in the writers room where we always tried to answer the question, ‘But why Ricky for Gina?’ Because E.J. is this amazing guy — who I think the audience will see is starting to land in a really good place in his life. And what we said is, ‘Ricky always makes Gina laugh.’ He can be really competitive, self-possessed, ambitious, she can beat herself up if things don’t go well and she’s a real people-pleaser.
