Deadline reports that Terri Minsky, creator of Lizzie McGuire, has stepped down as showrunner on the upcoming Disney Plus revival series.

"Fans have a sentimental attachment to 'Lizzie McGuire' and high expectations for a new series. After filming two episodes, we concluded that we need to move in a different creative direction and are putting a new lens on the show," a Disney spokesperson said.

In the series, Lizzie McGuire (Duff) is a 30-year-old millennial navigating life in New York City. Like the original series, it was to include the familiar animated version of a young Lizzie who offers up funny, revealing commentary on what 30-year-old Lizzie is really thinking.

Hillary Duff reprises her role from the original Disney Channel series.
