Girl Meets World has its star!

The casting search for Cory and Topanga's daughter for the upcoming Boy Meets World spin-off has officially come to an end. EW released that 11-year old Rowan Blanchard has secured the role for the Disney Channel role after a nationwide casting search.

Girl Meets World producer Michael Jacobs had this to say about the casting of Blanchard:

“As soon as Rowan walked into the room, I was reminded of why Ben Savage was loved as Cory Matthews. Rowan is real and accessible and I am hopeful this girl is about to meet a world that will love growing up with her as well.”

 Production on the pilot episode is set to begin in February and the show is expected to be added to the 2013-2014 Disney Channel schedule if the show is officially picked up.
