It\u2019s taken roughly two decades, but Malcolm in the Middle<\/a> is back for the reunion fans have been clamoring for! Today, Hulu<\/a> and Disney+<\/a> debuted the full trailer for Malcolm in the Middle: Life\u2019s Still Unfair, a four-episode revival premiering on April 10, 2026, on Disney+ and Hulu in the U.S. and Disney+ internationally.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s the Reunion Special About?<\/p>\n

After shielding himself and his daughter from his family for over a decade, Malcolm is dragged back into their orbit when Hal and Lois demand his presence at their 40th anniversary party.<\/p>\n

The series reunites Bryan Cranston (Hal), Frankie Muniz (Malcolm), Jane Kaczmarek (Lois), Christopher Kennedy Masterson (Francis), Justin Berfield (Reese), and Emy Coligado (Piama). They\u2019re joined by new cast members Keeley Karsten (Leah, Malcolm\u2019s daughter), Vaughan Murrae (Kelly, Malcolm\u2019s youngest sibling), Kiana Madeira (Tristan, Malcolm\u2019s girlfriend), and Caleb Ellsworth-Clark (as Dewey).<\/p>\n

What Happens in the New Trailer?<\/p>\n

The trailer for Malcolm in the Middle: Life\u2019s Still Unfair begins with a throwback gag of Lois taking a trimmer to Hal\u2019s back while Dewey looks on in horror from a laptop screen. Before the camera cuts to more family-related hijinks, Lois takes the buzzer to Hal\u2019s undercarriage, blowing away a tuft of hair before moving on to more of the patriarch\u2019s unmentionables. As the trailer continues, Malcolm tells us what he\u2019s been up to since he stopped talking to his family. He appears content, enthusiastic even. Still, when his family learns they\u2019re invited to a family reunion, all heck breaks loose as Malcolm attempts to keep the people who drove him up the wall during adolescence from infringing on his well-earned happiness.<\/p>\n

Muniz on His Return to Acting for the New Series<\/p>\n

\u201cJust wrapped filming the Malcolm in the Middle reboot, and man, I\u2019m still reeling,\u201d\u00a0Muniz said<\/a>\u00a0about completing the series earlier this year.\u00a0\u201cThis experience was straight-up incredible\u2014like stepping back into Malcolm\u2019s wild world but with all the love and chaos cranked to 11. Reuniting with the cast, getting to know some new characters, laughing till it hurt, and making new memories on set felt like a dream I didn\u2019t want to wake up from. It went by so fast, like a blur of perfect moments. I wish it could go on forever.\u201d<\/p>\n

Muniz continued,\u00a0\u201cI\u2019m so happy to have gotten the chance to relive being on this show with a greater appreciation of what we were making, knowing how many people around the world truly love Malcolm and his family. Another big thing I am taking away from this experience is how much I truly love being an actor. I never officially felt like that label fit me, but now I wear that label proudly and hope to do so much more of it in the future. I am so sad to have to say goodbye to my MITM crew, I love each and everyone of you.\u201d<\/p>\n

The actor added that he has\u00a0\u201cso many incredible pictures of all the cast\u201d\u00a0that he wanted to post, but Disney wouldn\u2019t let him,\u00a0\u201cSo imagine a picture of all us together, having the time of our lives!\u201d<\/p>\n
