Frankie Muniz had fans worried after sharing a cryptic message on social media about friendship troubles. Late Friday night, the Malcolm in the Middle star took to X/Twitter to reveal his struggles with sleeplessness, writing, “Can’t sleep. Hard when you realize your friends aren’t really your friends.”
The somber post quickly caught the attention of his followers, prompting an outpouring of concern and support. Fans flooded his comments with messages like “Are you good?” and “Hang in there,” while others tried to uplift the actor amid what appears to be a personal fallout.
Muniz hasn’t elaborated on the specifics behind his post or named anyone involved, leaving fans speculating about what might have caused his reflection on friendship.
The timing of the post has raised eyebrows, as it follows Muniz’s exciting career news. The beloved actor is set to reunite with Bryan Cranston and Jane Kaczmarek for a Malcolm in the Middle revival on Disney+. Sharing his excitement on Instagram, Muniz wrote, “Get ready, we can’t wait for everyone to see what Malcolm and his family have been up to! #MalcolmInTheMiddle.”
It’s unclear if his on-screen siblings Justin Berfield, Erik Per Sullivan, and Christopher Masterson will be involved in the series, but fans are already eager for the reunion.
Here’s hoping Muniz’s recent drama has nothing to do with his highly anticipated return to the role that made him a household name.
