Lizzie McGuire, the hit Disney Channel TV series that launched Hillary Duff's career is being revived for Disney+. Duff, who will be reprising her role, attended the D23 Expo to an enthusiastic group of fans. Details about the series have also been released.

“The good news is, just like me and everybody who loved Lizzie and has grown up with her, Lizzie’s also grown up,” Duff said about the revival. “She’s older, she’s wiser, she has a much bigger shoe budget, which is super exciting. She has her dream job. She has kind of the perfect life right now.”

Duff then revealed more details about her aged-up character. “She’s working as an apprentice to a fancy New York City decorator,” she said. “She has her dream guy, who owns a cool SoHo restaurant. She has her dream apartment in Brooklyn. And she’s getting ready to celebrate her 30th birthday.”

But the real exciting news came next: the animated alter ego of Lizzie’s inner thoughts is returning too! “She is still dealing with that 13-year-old no-holds-barred animated Lizzie that’s constantly babbling in her adult Lizzie head,” Duff said as the audience broke into cheers. “So she has to deal with that. But I think that’s what’s going to make it really special.”

Original series creator Terri Minsky is also back as showrunner.

I swear I only remember one distinct episode of this show.

The ol "kids are home alone for the first time, keep getting nervous about things, parents start getting worried about kids, shenanigans when circumstances at the end momentarily lead to the kids thinking the parents are home invaders trying to break in".


It should be interesting now though, especially with Hillary Duff being a mom now.

cancelled.
I have a feeling Hillary Duff based on her post wanted the show to go a certain direction and Disney wouldn't budge. As to what the direction Duff wanted? Who knows but perhaps it's better it's not happening.
