Bryan Cranston looks back on his key role in hit sitcom

Before deadly Heisenberg, Bryan Cranston was harmless Hal in Malcolm in the Middle.

As Disney+ has revived the sitcom after over two decades, he is sharing his excitement about reprising his character.

In a chat with People, the Emmy winner said, “Slipping back into the character of Hal for me was so rewarding — I missed him. It’s been almost 20 years since we said goodbye.”

“And he’s a sweet, lovable man. He’s really a lovable guy, and it was fun to see all my whole family back together. It was great,” the 69-year-old said.

Apart from this, Bryan opened up about his method of getting back into the character, which is a mini-series and the shooting was finished this May.

“It’s a short-sleeve shirt that Hal would wear, a patterned short-sleeve shirt that screams out he’s not going anywhere,” the Academy-nominated actor said.

The official logline of the reboot reads, “Malcolm and his daughter are drawn into the family’s chaos when Hal and Lois demand his presence for their 40th wedding anniversary party.”
