‘Malcolm in the Middle’ Revival Star Caleb Ellsworth-Clark Feared Fans Would Be ‘Disappointed’ He Was Taking Over Dewey Role: ‘Didn’t Want to F— That Up’
> “I grew up watching the show,” Ellsworth-Clark told People. “I know that Dewey was a fan favorite, but he was also a personal favorite. And I think I was aware that maybe people might be disappointed Erik wasn’t gonna come back and do the show. I guess I didn’t want to fuck that up.”
> The actor said he felt immediate nerves heading into production, admitting he was “really, really nervous showing up” to set. Still, those concerns quickly eased thanks to the returning cast. “They were so warm and welcoming,” he said. “I was really scared to show up but they all took such great care of me and made me feel like I belong. So I am really grateful to all of them,” he added in the same interview.

He did a good job, and I enjoyed the revival. Though I can’t help but think that if Erik Per Sullivan had returned, we would’ve had Dewey with the family and not via zoom the whole time.
