We already knew Hilary Duff was psyched to revive her role as Lizzie McGuire in the upcoming reboot on Disney+, but things just got real with a family photo of the McGuire clan: Hallie Todd, Robert Carradine and Jake Thomas — her onscreen parents and brother — are by Duff's side in a smiley new snapshot.
The foursome is pictured on an unfinished sitcom set with a ladder and power tools in the background. "We are standing in what will soon be the McGuire living room," Duff explained. "What's up fam. We doin' this."

"Lizzie McGuire" premiered in 2001 and came to an end in 2004. All four of the McGuire family members also appear in "The Lizzie McGuire Movie," which hit theaters in 2003.
Original series creator Terri Minsky serves as showrunner of the reboot, which will stream on Disney+ starting in 2020. The exciting announcement was made in August at Disney's annual D23 expo, where Duff's arrival onstage was one of the most talked-about moments of the whole convention.
"Just like there is no Lizzie McGuire without Hilary Duff, there is no McGuire family without Hallie, Robert and Jake," Gary Marsh, president and chief creative officer of Disney Channels Worldwide, said in a statement. "The original series holds a special place in the hearts of so many, and we can't wait to introduce fans, both old and new, to an older, wiser, yet still perfectly imperfect Lizzie."
Not yet confirmed is whether Lizzie's childhood best friends, Gordo and Miranda, will also be back in action. Fingers crossed!
