In a statement on Instagram Friday, Hillary Duff called on Disney to move the planned “Lizzie McGuire” revival from Disney+ to Hulu.
The series, a revival of the Disney Channel sitcom that launched Duff’s career, was put on hiatus last month after showrunner Terri Minsky exited the series over creative differences with the streamer. Minsky explained her exit in a recent interview with Variety, saying that her plan to make the show more “mature” didn’t fit with the family-friendly Disney+ brand.
Duff’s post backed Minsky’s original vision, suggesting that Disney should move the show to sister streaming network Hulu where it wouldn’t run up on the same content restrictions. The “Love, Simon” spinoff series “Love, Victor” recently made the same jump for much the same reasons.
