Biography

Frankie Muniz (Francisco James Muniz IV), born on 5 December 1985, is an American actor and racing driver.

He came to prominence in the 2000s playing the title character of the Fox sitcom Malcolm in the Middle (2000–2006), for which he was nominated for an Emmy and two Golden Globe Awards. He also appeared in the films Big Fat Liar (2002), Deuces Wild (2002), Agent Cody Banks (2003) and Racing Stripes (2005). At the height of his fame in 2003, he was considered one of the most popular child actors and "one of Hollywood's most bankable teens".

In 2008 he put his acting career on hold to pursue open-wheel racing and competed in the Atlantic Championship. He returned to racing in 2021 in stock cars and joined Rette Jones Racing for a full ARCA Menards Series season in 2023, finishing fourth in the standings. He now competes full-time in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series, driving the No. 33 Ford F-150 for Team Reaume.
