‘Lizzie McGuire’ Reboot Author Lists Grownup Themes That Acquired It Cancelled

The “Lizzie McGuire” reboot undoubtedly wasn’t made for youths — one thing we’re studying about in a lot higher element … now that one among its writers is spilling the beans.

Jonathan Hurwitz — who was engaged on the present for Disney on the time — hit TikTok to elucidate what they had been penning, and what pissed the Mouse Home off by way of plot factors. Principally, he says they had been writing a few 30-year-old girl doing grown-folk issues … which weren’t all the time G-rated.

Take a look at his highlights of issues they had been having Lizzie do of their comeback season — he says Hilary Duff would’ve been within the full swing of NYC dwelling … working as an inside designer whereas shacking up together with her good-looking chef BF — who’d cheat on her together with her BFF.

Of their nixed script, they’d it the place Lizzie then moved in together with her dad and mom in Cali … the place she’d discover herself again in touch with Gordo … who’s obtained some main bombshells for her — he is engaged with a child on the way in which!

In accordance with Jon, Lizzie would’ve obtained a textual content from her outdated highschool crush, Ethan … later checking him off her “to-do” listing after waking up in his mattress — one thing he says that significantly pissed off the family-friendly of us over at Disney. No intercourse, dammit!

Two episodes had already been filmed earlier than Disney+ pulled the plug following artistic variations between the streamer and Hilary … which was fairly dramatic when it occurred.

Hilary introduced the choice on IG in Jan 2020 … saying she wished the reboot to be an genuine portrayal of who Lizzie would’ve been at this time — the rest would’ve been a disservice to her. Feels like Jon right here is cosigning that … noting, Disney wasn’t down.

After all, it is devastating that grownup Lizzie by no means obtained the reboot she deserved … however nothing’s extra upsetting, maybe, than studying Gordo by no means obtained together with her himself in any case these years.
