And this is how dreams get crushed.
00:10
Bad news, Lizzie McGuire fans. Sadly, the upcoming Disney Plus reboot of the
00:14
beloved Disney Channel show starring Hilary Duff is now being put on hold.
00:18
The unexpected hiatus comes after news that Lizzie McGuire creator Terry Minsky is
00:23
stepping down as showrunner for the streaming platform series, which follows a
00:27
now-grown-up Lizzie as she navigates adulthood with her animated 13-year-old ego by her side.
00:32
Watch out world, Ms. Lizzie McGuire is ready to make your acquaintance.
00:36
A Disney spokesperson released a statement further explaining the decision saying,
00:40
"...fans have a sentimental attachment to Lizzie McGuire and high expectations for a new series.
00:45
After filming two episodes, we concluded that we need to move in a different creative
00:49
direction and are putting a new lens on the show."
00:52
A new showrunner has yet to be named following Minsky's departure.
00:55
Now, the original Lizzie McGuire ran from 2001 to 2004 on Disney Channel, starring Duff as just
01:01
a young middle schooler. The show was a hit for Disney, which then spawned into soundtracks,
01:06
books, other merchandise and the 2003 feature film, The Lizzie McGuire Movie, which made
01:11
$55 million at the worldwide box office.
01:14
The revival will feature several other cast members reprising their roles, including Adam
01:19
Hamburg as Gordo, and Halle Todd, Robert Carradine and Jake Thomas as Lizzie's fam, Joe,
01:24
Sam and Matt McGuire.
01:26
No word yet on a release date or when production is set to resume.
