Weep not for Cody Linley. The 18-year-old heartthrob may have been forced to hang up his dancing shoes after being voted off "Dancing with the Stars," but he seems to have a bright future ahead of him. After all, his life has already changed drastically in just a few short months.

"It's such a new life that I'm living. I was going to high school and taking Spanish quizzes six months ago, and then suddenly I was being picked up in a limo and being driven to work, where I got to dance in front of 20 million people live. It's kind of surreal," notes Linley, who already has new projects in store, including a Dec. 7 appearance on "Hannah Montana," on which he recurs as Miley Cyrus' sometimes beau.

"Right after I moved back to California, I did a project called 'The Word of Promise.' It's an audio version of the Bible for children. I played Jesus, actually," adds Linley of the project produced by "The Passion of the Christ" star Jim Caviezel.

"Jordin Sparks, Corbin Bleu and Jesse McCartney are in it, too. It's a really awesome project." While that tape is already available, Linley is waiting for the release of his next project, a horror film called "Forget Me Not." "It's more of an independent project. It's a lot edgier than anything I've done before," he says. "With all of the projects that have come my way, it's definitely been an awesome year. I'm so thankful for everything that's happened."
