In the mini series, Christa interacts with her own 13-year-old self and questions some of the themes in the hit romance comedy film.

"When I started my TikTok journey 2 years ago, I had no idea how much people would love '13 Going on 30' content," she wrote on Twitter, Wednesday.

"After several videos went viral, fans were asking for a sequel by the hundreds. This short series 'Vienna' is less of a sequel, more of a response—I hope you love it!"

She released the last part of "Vienna" on her birthday. "Thank you for all of the incredible birthday wishes!!" she said. "30 ain't so bad, y'all."

In the past year, Christa went viral on TikTok after she recreated some of the most iconic outfits and scenes on "13 Going on 30." As of writing, Christa now has over 1.7 million followers on Tiktok and almost 40 million likes.
