- The cast of "
Lizzie McGuire " reunited onZoom for the first time in almost 18 years for a table read of the iconic 2001 episode "Between a Rock and a Bra Place." - Sharing a video of the reunion on Instagram, the show's star Hilary Duff said Jake Thomas, who played the role of Lizzie's brother Matt, phoned her last week with the idea.
- Duff and 11 other former cast and crew members, including Thomas, Lalaine ("Miranda,") and Adam Lamberg ("Gordo") joined the call, and kicked off by singing the show's theme song together.
- With the support of writers Nina, Jeremy Bargiel, and Bob Thomas, also father of Jake, they then read through the episode — which sees Lizzie and Miranda buying their first bras — 19 years after it aired on the Disney Channel.
- "I truly believe that this show was magical, and everyone that was a part of it created that," Duff says afterwards.
- The reunion comes after a Disney Plus reboot of the show was put on hold earlier this year after its original creator stepped down.
- Duff has since asked Disney to move the reboot to Hulu so the show could depict "the realities of a 30-year-old's journey" without being restricted by a PG rating.
