Though the Lizzie McGuire reboot never made it to air, writer Jonathan Hurwitz is opening up about what storylines fans could have expected in the first few episodes.
The show, which was set to follow a grown-up version of Hilary Duff’s character from the 2001-04 Disney Channel series, was canceled in 2020 due to creative differences between Duff and Disney+ executives.
In a recent TikTok video, Hurwitz said they wrote and filmed the first two episodes of the Disney+ series, and that the third episode was also written.
“Basically, it starts in New York,” Hurwitz details of the first episode’s plot. “Lizzie’s been working and living there as an interior designer, and she’s dating this very, very handsome chef. And she ends up finding that he’s been cheating on her with her best friend.”
That’s when she goes back to her childhood home in California from the original series,...

The reboot of popular 2000s Disney Channel sitcom Lizzie McGuire was cancelled. Now, one of its writers has revealed a few new details about its plot.
Hilary Duff was a huge star among pre-teens in the early 2000s thanks to her portrayal of the eponymous character in Disney Channel sitcom Lizzie McGuire – and its subsequent movie.
The show followed the awkward, klutzy teen as she navigated life, school with best friends Gordo and Miranda, played by Adam Lamberg and Lalaine. There was also her family – her younger brother Matt, played by Jake Thomas, and her embarrassing parents, played by Hallie Todd and Robert Carradine – whose brother David appeared in one episode as a mentor to Matt when he made his own kung fu film.
One memorable aspect of the show was the frequent use of an animated version of Lizzie, which represented her inner monologue. The show’s popularity led...

In a TikTok video, Hurwitz says that the first two episodes of the Disney+ series were shot and written. The first episode finds Hilary Duff’s Lizzie living in New York City as an interior designer. Lizzie soon finds out her chef boyfriend is cheating on her with her best friend, which prompts her to move back to her childhood home in California, where animated Lizzie is waiting for her.
Fans of the Disney Channel series questioned if Lizzie and her best friend Gordo would be the end game, but the writer revealed that in Episode 2, Lizzie finds out her childhood friend is about to be a father and happily engaged.
At the end of the second episode, Lizzie gets a message from her childhood crush, Ethan Craft.
