Here's Why The 'Malcolm In The Middle' Revival Recast 1 Key Role
"Two decades after taking its final (and ever chaotic) bow, Malcolm in the Middle is returning with a revival series. And if you're wondering how the titular genius and his family are doing, the reboot's title, Life's Still Unfair - a nod to the original show's theme song - should give you an idea. But behind the scenes, things were much cheerier. "It was the first time in my entire life that, when I was done filming the reboot, I was happy to call myself an actor," Frankie Muniz recently told Peopleof reprising his role as Malcolm. He also said reuniting with his TV family felt like "not a single day went by.""
"It's A Family Reunion As Muniz told People, it was a joy working with the Malcolm in the Middle family again. The core returning cast includes Jane Kaczmarek and Bryan Cranston as Malcolm's parents, Lois and Hal, and Justin Berfield and Christopher Masterson as his brothers, Reese and Francis - with Emy Coligado also reprising her role as Piama, Francis' wife. Dewey Was Recast You might have noticed that one key member of the original series isn't listed among the returns. Erik Per Sullivan, who played Dewey, has stepped away from acting, and Caleb Ellsworth-Clark will now portray the character."
