Frankie Muniz's 5-year-old son, Mauz, became upset after watching his father, Malcolm Muniz, act in a scene for the Hulu revival of Malcolm in the Middle: Life's Still Unfair. Muniz had to remove Mauz from set during a scene where he was discussing Malcolm's relationship with his family and explained that his son, who does not know him as an actor, only knows him as a race car driver. The actor also mentioned that he hopes the revival will make Mauz "proud" for his son.
