Avalon High official press release from The Disney Channel

It seems The Disney Channel issued an updated press release along with the recent photos. Here it is:

Britt Robertson ("Life Unexpected") and Gregg Sulkin ("Wizards of Waverly Place," Disney Channel UK's "As the Bell Rings") star in "Avalon High," the fantastical Disney Channel Original Movie that brings Arthurian legend alive at a contemporary high school. Based upon the award-winning novel written by best-selling author Meg Cabot ("The Princess Diaries"), the movie follows Allie Pennington, a transfer student to Avalon High, who discovers that her new classmates are reincarnations of King Arthur and his Court.

"Avalon High" will premiere in November 2010 on Disney Channel in the U.S., and shortly thereafter on Disney Channels worldwide.

When Allie's parents, traveling professors who specialize in King Arthur's legend, tell her she will be staying at Avalon High until she graduates, she is ecstatic. She can finally join the track team, make new friends and be a normal high school student. But shortly after arriving, Allie discovers that something strange may be afoot.

While researching a term paper for Mr. Moore's history class on King Arthur's legacy, Allie learns about 'The Order of the Bear,' an ancient organization that believes King Arthur will one day be reincarnated and when he is truly needed, will bring the world into a new age of enlightenment. The Order of the Bear members search for potential Arthurs in each and every generation but are met with opposition by the Dark Forces, led by the reincarnation of Mordred, who are determined to find the next Arthur and destroy him before he can realize the prophecy. If Arthur isn't found in time, Mordred will send the world back into the dark ages.

Allie soon begins to notice some interesting parallels between the past and the present – from handsome quarterback Will Wagner, his cheerleader girlfriend Jen, and their best friend Lance, to Will's brooding step-brother Marco, a quirky kid named Miles and football players who act like knights of the roundtable. The deeper Allie searches, the more convinced she is that her school is a contemporary Camelot, and it's up to her to solve the mystery of Avalon High before notorious traitor Mordred wins again.

The movie stars Britt Robertson as Allie Pennington, Gregg Sulkin as Will Wagner, Joey Pollari (Disney XD's "Skyrunners") as Miles, Devon Graye ("Dexter") as Marco, Molly Quinn ("Castle") as Jen, Chris Tavarez ("Big Momma's House 2") as Lance, Don Lake ("The Bonnie Hunt Show") as Allie's Dad and Steve Valentine ("I'm In The Band," "Wizards of Waverly Place The Movie," "Crossing Jordan") as Mr. Moore.

The teleplay, based upon the book written by Meg Cabot, was written by Julie Sherman Wolfe ("JONAS," "Phil of the Future") and Amy Talkington ("Confessions"). "Avalon High" was directed and co-produced by Stuart Gillard (Disney Channel's "Hatching Pete," "90210"); executive produced by Michael Jaffe ("The Informant!") and Howard Braunstein ("The Informant!") and produced by Janine Dickins ("Wendy Wu: Homecoming Warrior," "Power Rangers Operation Overdrive"). "Avalon High" is a production of Sudden Motion Productions, Inc. and Ranger Productions Ltd. It carries a TV-G rating.
