LIZZIE McGUIRE” ORIGINAL CAST MEMBERS REUNITE WITH HILARY DUFF IN NEW DISNEY+ SERIES

 

Hallie Todd, Robert Carradine and Jake Thomas are set to reprise their roles as Jo, Sam, and Matt McGuire, joining previously announced Hilary Duff as Lizzie, in the Disney+ series “Lizzie McGuire.”   Back in October, the cast convened for the first time in 15 years for a read-through of the first episode. *Yikes, this might mean I’m getting older!

“We are incredibly excited to bring back one of the most popular Disney Channel series of all time along with some beloved and familiar faces,” said Ricky Strauss, president, Content & Marketing, Disney+. “With Terri at the helm and Hilary, Hallie, Robert, and Jake back after all these years, it’s our honor to welcome the McGuire family into the Disney+ family.”

“Just like there is no Lizzie McGuire without Hilary Duff, there is no McGuire family without Hallie, Robert, and Jake,” said Gary Marsh, president, and chief creative officer, Disney Channels Worldwide. “The original series holds a special place in the hearts of so many, and we can’t wait to introduce fans, both old and new, to an older, wiser, yet still perfectly imperfect Lizzie.”

The new story picks up as Lizzie McGuire is just about to turn 30.  She seemingly has it all – her dream job as an assistant to a fancy New York City decorator, her dream guy, and a picturesque Brooklyn apartment – but things aren’t always as they seem. With a little help from her friends, her loving family and her 13-year-old alter-ego in animated form, Lizzie navigates the ups and downs of adulthood.

Original “Lizzie McGuire” series creator Terri Minsky returns as showrunner and executive producer. Hilary Duff and Rachel Winter will also executive-produce.  Ranada Shepard is the co-executive producer. “Lizzie McGuire” is a production of Salty Pictures, Inc.
