Bryan Cranston Says “There Was Some Talk” About A ‘Malcolm In The Middle’ Movie

Bryan Cranston of Breaking Bad, who played Hal on the popular family sitcom Malcolm in the Middle, said that there have been discussions happening about reuniting the Malcolm cast.

Speaking to E! News, Cranston said “There was some talk about the possibility of doing, like, a reunion movie of Malcolm in the Middle. 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.’ I can’t believe it’s already that, but that would be fun to do.”

Cranston’s time on Malcolm kickstarted his career and earned him three Emmy nominations. He is now known by most for playing teacher-turned-drug-kingpin Walter White on Breaking Bad.

Malcolm ran on Fox from 2000 to 2006, centering around the Wilkerson family. Cranston and Jane Kaczmarek were at the head of the family as the parents of five kids, including Francis (Christopher Masterson), Reese (Justin Berfield), Malcolm (Frankie Muniz), Dewey (Erik Per Sullivan) and Jamie (James and Lukas Rodriguez).

Muniz, who recently revealed he’ll be a full-time driver on the NASCAR circuit this coming year, has also talked of a reboot, saying that Cranston was mulling ideas for the script.
