“We are incredibly excited to bring back one of the most popular Disney Channel series of all time along with some beloved and familiar faces,” Disney+’s President of Content and Marketing Ricky Strauss said in a statement. “With [original series creator Terri Minsky] at the helm and Hilary, Hallie, Robert, and Jake back after all these years, it’s our honor to welcome the McGuire family into the Disney+ family.”

The new series picks up as Lizzie is just about to turn 30. She seemingly has it all — her dream job as an assistant to a fancy New York City decorator, her dream guy, and a picturesque Brooklyn apartment — but things aren’t always as they seem. With a little help from her friends, her loving family, and her 13-year-old alter-ego in animated form, Lizzie navigates the ups and downs of adulthood.

Original series creator Terri Minsky is returning as showrunner and executive producer, with Duff and Rachel Winter as executive producers. A premiere date for the Lizzie McGuire revival has not yet been announced.
