Frankie Muniz's On-Set Struggles: Walking Off 'Malcolm in the Middle'

Former child actor Frankie Muniz reveals that he "hated" Los Angeles and felt out of place in the Hollywood world, leading him to move to Arizona on a whim, where he found a better quality of life. Reflecting on his decision to retire from acting after "Malcolm in the Middle," Muniz credits his diverse experiences, including professional race car driving and music, for keeping him focused and avoiding a potentially negative path. He also opened up about walking off the "Malcolm" set due to toxicity and the fear of standing up to disrespectful behavior.
