Malcolm in the Middle is getting a 4-episode revival on Disney+ with Frankie Muniz and his television parents, Bryan Cranston and Jane Kaczmarek.
While the special event won’t be airing until later this year, they still have to film it. And that is what they are doing as you read this.
Today, Muniz shared a smiling photo of himself with Hal and Lois, and it looks like no time has passed when it has actually been almost 20 years.
The revival finds Malcolm being reunited with family for his parents’ 40th anniversary. The three of them will be joined by Francis (Christopher Kennedy Masterson) and Reese (Justin Berfield). However, Dewey (Erik Per Sullivan, who retired from acting) and James will be played by different actors. There is a sixth sibling who has been added to the family.
Seeing the three of them together is getting me so excited for this!
Seriously, now that Muniz has gotten his hair plugs, he looks just like he did when Malcolm ended in 2006.

Back in December, Disney+ announced that they were bringing back Malcolm in the Middle for a four-episode revival with Frankie Muniz, Jane Kaczmarek, and Bryan Cranston. However, we didn’t know who else was going to be joining them from the OG show.
Today, we learned that Christopher Masterson and Justin Berfield will reprise their roles as Malcolm’s older brothers, Francis and Reese.
However, Erik Per Sullivan, who played their youngest brother, Dewey, for the first few seasons, is not returning because he retired from acting in 2010. Caleb Ellsworth-Clark will replace him.
In the fourth season, the sitcom introduced Jamie, the Wilkersons’ fifth child, and Anthony Timpano will play him.
There is one more child we never met, as they were revealed in the series finale, when we found out that Lois is pregnant. The sixth and final kid is named Jamie and will be played by Vaughan Murrae.
The revival will see the six Wilkerson children reunite for their parents’ 40th anniversary. What mayhem could they cause when they are all in the same house again? A lot!
The limited series will start filming this week and does not have an air date.

Frankie Muniz is getting ready to film a revival of Malcolm in the Middle, so he wants to look his best. Therefore, the actor made sure his hairline is back to where it was.
“This is not AI… It’s @hairclub,” he wrote. “I’m still shocked when I find old photos of myself before I went to Hairclub. Seriously makes me so happy to be reminded of how life changing Hairclub has been. Just figured I’d share!”
What a difference Hair Club made for the 39-year-old. I would never have known that was not his original hairline. But then again, I didn’t know he was balding.

It is not even Christmas, but Malcolm in the Middle fans got a tremendous gift! Disney+ is resurrecting the series for four episodes with Frankie Muniz, Bryan Cranston, and Jane Kaczmarek.
Malcolm (Muniz) and his daughter are drawn into the family’s chaos when Hal (Cranston) and Lois (Kaczmarek) demand his presence for their 40th wedding anniversary party.
“‘Malcolm in the Middle’ is a landmark sitcom that captured the essence of family life with humor, heart, and relatability,” said Ayo Davis, president of Disney Branded Television. “Its hilarious and heartfelt portrayal of a lovably chaotic family resonated with audiences of all ages, and we’re so excited to welcome the original cast back to bring that magic to life again. With Linwood Boomer and the creative team at the helm, these new episodes will have all the laughs, pranks, and mayhem fans loved — along with a few surprises that remind us why this show is so timeless.”
However, no timeline was given as to when it will air. And more importantly, we don’t know if Malcolm’s brothers, Justin Berfield, Erik Per Sullivan, and Christopher Masterson, will appear in the sequel.
Malcolm in the Middle originally aired on Fox from 2000-2006.

Before Frankie Muniz was a race car driver, he met Jeff Gordon on Spin City. How cute was the 12-year-old in that 1988 episode?
