For someone who's only been confirmed to be an executive producer and not a cast member for *Camp Rock 3,* Demi Lovato sure is featured quite a lot in the three-quel's first teaser trailer along with the Jonas Brothers.

On Thursday, Disney released the first footage from the upcoming *Camp Rock *revival movie that featured the surprise inclusion of Lovato's original character Mitchie Torres, despite the fact that Lovato is not included in the cast list.

While Mitchie isn't shown onscreen, she's heard in voiceover with quotes from the first two *Camp Rock *movies, as well as her duet with her onscreen love interest Shane (Joe Jonas), "Wouldn't Change a Thing." The montage footage also shows Mitchie's journal, in which she wrote all her songs.

Since Maria Canals-Barrera is also returning for the third movie to once again play Mitchie's mom Connie, all signs seem to be pointing towards a possible Lovato cameo in addition to her executive producing duties. Because as this teaser proves, you can't have a *Camp Rock* movie without including Mitchie (she's *really* good!).

As the teaser continues playing "Wouldn't Change a Thing" in the background, Shane and his Connect 3 band members/brothers (played by Kevin Jonas and Nick Jonas) return to Camp Rock for the first time after 15 years.

"Music, friendship, memories," Nate (Nick) says.

"We're back, exactly where we're supposed to be," Shane adds.

"Still no birdhouse," Jason (Kevin) quips in a callback to the original movie.

The teaser then introduces the new generation of campers with quick flashes of their characters, including Liamani Segura as Sage, Malachi Barton as Fletch, Lumi Pollack as Rosie, Hudson Stone as Desi, and Casey Trotter as Cliff.
