The acting universe is abuzz after Frankie Muniz shared a heart-warming throwback with his Malcolm in the Middle family, hinting at the much-anticipated sitcom reboot.

This beloved family series, running for seven seasons from 2000 to 2006, depicted the tumultuous life of a hardworking American family.

Set to hit screens once more, Muniz is returning to reunite with on-screen parents Bryan Cranston and Jane Kaczmarek, who portrayed the lovable characters Hal and Lois, respectively.

As a tribute to their enduring bond, Muniz recently posted an affectionate photo from their catch-up session, captioning it, "Always good to have Mom and Dad around!"

Unsurprisingly, fans' comments flooded the post, expressing their joy and excitement at the revival.

Spending the spotlight on the big screen during his younger days, Muniz has shifted gears, trading Hollywood sets for the adrenaline rush of NASCAR.

He made his debut in the driver's seat in 2021 and has since been making headlines on the tracks, securing a 10th place finish in February 2025.

As the Malcolm in the Middle reboot gears up, fans are eagerly waiting for a release date.

The synopsis reveals an intriguing plot: "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."

Without doubt, their celebration promises to be unforgettable!
