<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“Malcolm in the Middle” actor </span><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/celebrities"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Frankie Muniz</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> said that even though he had a good experience as a </span><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/hollywood"><span style="font-weight: 400;">child star</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">, he still doesn’t want his son to enter the profession.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“I would never let my kid go into the </span><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/entertainment"><span style="font-weight: 400;">business</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">. Not that I had a negative experience, because, to be honest, my experience was 100% positive. But I know so many people, friends that were close to me, that had such insanely negative experiences,” the 38-year-old star said in an interview clip with the Australian outlet Pedestrian, which was shared on </span><a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@pedestriantv/video/7349834258459938049?_r=1&amp;_t=8kxG87KEBnq"><span style="font-weight: 400;">TikTok</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“I think it’s an ugly world in general,” Muniz added. “I never cared about rejection, but there’s a ton of rejection. I truly say that becoming a successful actor is like winning the lottery because, in the beginning, that’s all it is.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“Me getting into &#8216;Malcolm in the Middle,&#8217; maybe that was a little different than other shows, but as a child actor, you get picked because you could be the kid of the parents they picked,” he said. “I think people think it’s an easy thing to break into, but I like to be honest about it and say there’s a million people in Hollywood who tried. Maybe they’re amazing actors — they can be the best actors on the planet! — but they don’t even get the opportunity,” Muniz went on. “It’s not like going into a different industry where you can work really hard and get into it.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The former child star has been married to Paige Price since 2020. They share a 3-year-old son, Mauz.</span></p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Muniz is best known for playing the lead role in the popular Fox sitcom “Malcolm in the Middle” (2000–2006), which earned him an Emmy Award nomination and two Golden Globe Award nominations. He also appeared in other popular shows and broke into the movie business, appearing in “Deuces Wild” (2002), “Big Fat Liar” (2002), “Agent Cody Banks” (2003), and “Racing Stripes” (2005).</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The actor’s comments come just after the release of the new documentary, “Quiet on Set: The Dark Side of Kids TV.” The bombshell series included several former child stars making allegations of sexual misconduct and other toxic workplace behavior from employees at Nickelodeon in the 1990s and 2000s.</span></p>
