For a year, we have been hearing about the Malcolm in the Middle revival special, and today we finally found out when the four episodes will stream, along with a teaser trailer.
After shielding himself and his daughter from his family for over a decade, Malcolm is dragged back into their orbit when Hal and Lois demand his presence at their 40th anniversary party.
Am I the only one who is kind of sad that Malcolm (Frankie) distanced himself from his family, Bryan Cranston (Hal), Frankie Muniz (Malcolm), Jane Kaczmarek (Lois), Christopher Kennedy Masterson (Francis), Justin Berfield (Reese), and Caleb Ellsworth-Clark (as Dewey)? It makes sense, but still. Oh, and they are still making me laugh.
Malcolm in the Middle: Life’s Still Unfair premieres April 10th on Hulu and Disney+. You can stream the original run on Hulu.
Malcolm in the Middle is coming back for a four-episode event. Even though it has wrapped production, we still have not seen that many photos from the set.
Today, Frankie Muniz shared a photo with his TV brothers, Christopher Kennedy Masterson and Justin Berfield, and wrote, “I was told not to post this yet, but then I listened to this song. I’m just too excited for y’all to see the new episodes and I miss my brothers.”
We miss them too, and that is why we can’t wait to see Malcolm in the Middle: Life’s Still Unfair on Disney+ in December.
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.
