For seven years, Frankie Muniz was the title character in the “Malcolm in the Middle” sitcom. Now, the actor is in the middle of a second career as a stock car driver. He’s certainly off to a nice start thus far, as it was just announced that Muniz will compete full-time in the NASCAR Truck Series in 2025.

The 38-year-old will drive the No. 33 car for Reaume Brothers Racing, the same team he’s competed in for two Truck Series races this year, with two more races to go.
