Las Vegas, Nevada – Former “Malcolm in the Middle” star Frankie Muniz recently opened up about his experience on the hit show during an appearance on Australia’s “I’m a Celebrity … Get Me Out of Here.” Muniz revealed that he walked off the set during the filming of two episodes due to an uncomfortable work environment.
The actor explained that he witnessed others being mistreated and felt compelled to take a stand, even if it meant risking his role on the show. Despite the tension he experienced, Muniz emphasized that his decision was driven by a desire to see people stand up for themselves.
Although Muniz ultimately pursued a career in NASCAR after starring in “Malcolm in the Middle,” he still reflects on his time as a child actor with fondness. He expressed concerns about the industry and its potential impact on young performers, citing the negative experiences of friends in the business.
Now a father to a three-year-old son, Muniz and his wife Paige Price navigate the challenges of balancing family life with their past experiences in the entertainment industry. Despite the hurdles, Muniz maintains a positive outlook and remains open to the idea of revisiting his “Malcolm in the Middle” roots.
Looking ahead, Muniz hinted at a possible revival of the beloved series, expressing interest in reuniting with his castmates. With support from co-star Bryan Cranston, Muniz remains hopeful for the prospect of a reunion, showcasing the enduring bond he shares with his “Malcolm” family.
