Actor Frankie Muniz is going all in on racing.
Reaume Brothers Racing announced this week that the star of shows like “Malcom in the Middle” and films like “Big Fat Liar” and “Agent Cody Banks” will drive in the No. 33 Ford full time on the NASCAR Truck Series in 2025.
“I’m incredibly excited to join Reaume Brothers Racing full-time in 2025,” Muniz said in a statement. “My longstanding relationship with Ford has been a game changer, and I am thrilled to help facilitate additional support allowing us to tap into their exceptional technical and engineering resources.”
“I’m confident that this synergy will elevate Reaume Brothers Racing and help us achieve great things together. I can’t wait to get started”
Muniz, 38, has competed in two Xfinity Series races, including in Michigan, and two Trucks races in 2024. His best finish was in 29th in the Trucks race at Kansas on Sept. 27.
His last full-time racing effort took place in the ARCA Menards Series in 2023, where he collected one top five finish and 11 top-10 finishes, culminating in a fourth-place points finish at the end of the year.
“We’re thrilled to welcome Frankie to our team full-time and to expand our relationship with Ford Performance,” team owner Josh Reaume said in a statement.
“Their support has been invaluable, and we believe that with Frankie’s passion and our collective momentum from this year, we can make significant strides in the upcoming season.”
He is scheduled to race in Saturday’s Trucks race in Miami. It can be seen at noon on FS1.
Muniz, who was nominated for two Emmy Awards and a Golden Globe for his performance on “Malcom in the Middle,” has appeared in limited roles in the last 15 years.
At the height of his fame, he was considered one of the most popular child actors and was named “one of Hollywood’s most bankable teens” in 2003.
