After 151 episodes in 7 seasons, Malcolm and the whole family will return to Disney+ with 4 new 30-minute episodes. The announcement was made last December to the delight of fans. For the occasion, the sitcom will tell the story of the 40th wedding anniversary of Malcolm's parents, Lois and Hal. Their son will therefore go there accompanied by his wife and daughter.
We know that Justin Berfield and Christopher Kennedy Masterson who play Reese and Francis, Malcolm's brothers, respectively. The only absentee will be Erik Per Sullivan who played the role of the youngest of the Dewey family. The actor has wanted to turn to other projects away from the cameras since the end of the series in 2006. For these 4 new episodes, Caleb Eswoth-Clark will replace him.

Just wrapped filming the Malcolm in the Middle reboot, and man, I’m still reeling. This experience was straight-up incredible—like stepping back into Malcolm’s wild world, but with all the love and chaos cranked to 11.

The title character revealed that it was "a downright incredible experience" and that "it was like a dream I didn't want to wake up from." He enjoyed reuniting with his castmates and discovering the new characters. The 39-year-old actor accompanied his post with a photo of a clapperboard with the series' title on it. He added:
I had so many amazing photos of all the actors I wanted to post, but Disney won't let me... So imagine a photo of us all together, having the time of our lives!
Excellent news that means Malcolm's return could be coming soon to Disney+. The platform hasn't announced a release date yet, but there's a good chance the series will be available in early 2026. Or better yet: since there shouldn't be much post-production required, we could hope to discover these 4 new episodes for Christmas... A great gift for all fans!
In the meantime, here are the characters we hope to see again in these new episodes of Malcolm.
