Wanna be friends with Hutch Dano?


Then you better be willing to graciously take a prank or stay up all night watching horror flicks. The 18-year-old cutie’s reprising his role as confident skateboarder Zeke when Disney XD’s third season of Zeke and Luther premieres this Monday, Feb. 28, at 8 p.m. ET/PT.

What can we expect from the new season? Aside from loads more guest stars and laughs, Hutch tells us we’ll be seeing besties Zeke and Luther step things up when it comes to their professional careers. “They are now professional skateboarders and [this season] focuses a lot on them really trying to reach their goal of getting to the top,” he says.

We know a lot about Zeke and Luther’s tight friendship on screen. But what kinda bud is Hutch Dano in real life? We got him to spill on the awesome bond with his bestie, whom he’s been friends with since middle school. Awww…


The one birthday gift he’d totally get his bud: A guitar used by Slash. “He’s a huge fan of Guns N’ Roses. A couple of years ago, I got him a picture signed by Slash so the best thing after that would be the guitar.”

The one prank he’d pull on his bestie: Letting him drive his brand new car. “I have this 1959 Chevelle Malibu that I bought about a month ago and he just got his license [so] he keeps bugging me to drive it. Nobody drives that car but me. What I would probably do is go, ‘I want you to borrow the car for a week’ and as he stepped into the driver’s seat, I would be like, ‘Get out.’ It’s terrible, but I’d have all his buddies there, too, looking at the car and then we’d all laugh. But, you know, that’s what you can do if you’re best friends.”

The most thoughtful thing his best bud has ever done for him: Take the time to hang out. “There have been times when I’ve been really down and I won’t be in the best mood, and he’ll pretty much cancel anything he has going on for the entire weekend and spend it with me. When you’re in a bad mood, the only thing that can get you out of it is your family or best friend.”

The last thing him and his BFF did: A horror movie marathon.
“We stayed up ’til about 5 a.m. watching the Resident Evil movies. I gotta tell you, a couple of Red Bulls had to be thrown into the situation. One of the [reasons] we became friends was because we [both] love watching movies. We’ve been doing it for years.”

Be sure to catch Hutch and the rest of the Zeke and Luther gang Monday nights at 8 p.m. on Disney XD.
