"25 years since we premiered Malcolm in the Middle. I'm so excited... that I may have peed just a little bit,” Cranston, 68, joked and Kaczmarek, 68, added, "What a delight that I get to yell at that kid again!

Malcolm in the Middle — with Muniz as the titular character — ran for seven seasons from 2000 to 2006. The series followed the lives of the Wilkersons, a dysfunctional family of six that includes various personality types like a studious son, an overbearing mother, an immature father and a troublemaking brother.

In addition to Muniz, Cranston and Kaczmarek, the comedy also starred Christopher Masterson, Justin Berfield, and Erik Per Sullivan.

"Malcolm in the Middle is a landmark sitcom that captured the essence of family life with humor, heart and relatability,” Ayo Davis, president of Disney Branded Television, said in a statement. “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.”

"Malcolm in the Middle literally changed the face of the television comedy landscape when it premiered two decades ago, redefining what the genre could be,” Karey Burke, president of 20th Television, added. “When Linwood Boomer suggested it might be time to bring everyone’s favorite dysfunctional family back for a bit of a reunion, we couldn’t think of a more iconic and influential series to revisit, along with a truly brilliant cast to reunite.”

News of a potential revival of the Emmy-winning sitcom has been teased by both Muniz and Cranston.

In Oct. 2022, Muniz told Fox News he "would be down, 100 percent” for a reunion, which Cranston had in the works.

"When I was on Malcolm, I was just so excited to be working on a show," he shared. "But also, in that same sense, when the show ended, I kind of left the business for a little bit. I started doing other things. I was racing cars. I joined a band. I was touring all over. I opened some businesses and I got to experience so many amazing things in my life, which now at this point has made me able to reflect and look back and be so appreciative of the experience."

The following year, Cranston told E! News that he would  "certainly would be open" to a revival.

"There was some talk about the possibility of doing like a reunion movie of Malcolm in the Middle," Cranston shared at the time.

"We had such a great family on that, and I certainly would be open to that if there was a good idea that came up like, 'Oh, that would be fantastic to explore what happened to this family 20 years later,'" he continued. "I can't believe it's already that, but that would be fun to do."
