The first look at the Lizzie McGuire reboot is here!

We literally cannot wait for this. - by Emma Norris
  • 30 Sep 2019

Before there was K.C Undercover or Alex Russo, or even Hannah Montanna, there was one iconic Disney TV character to rule them all.

Her name was Lizzie McGuire and she was literally our hero. 

If you need a refresher, Hilary Duff and her cartoon alter ego played Lizzie, a 13-year-old middle school student riding the rollercoaster of life with besties Miranda and Gordo.

There were crushes. There was chaos. There were hilarious crimped hairstyles that were super cool at the time. And basically, every teen girl in the world was devo when the series came to an end in 2004.

Thankfully, our lives have regained meaning once again, because Hilary announced back in August that the show would be making a comeback.

Now, we have our first look at the modern reboot.

Watch: Hilary Duff announces Lizzie McGuire reboot!

Celebrity hairstylist Nikki Lee has posted our first glimpse at grown-up Lizzie and unsurprisingly, she's a lot more chic.

"Never in a million years did I think I would be doing Lizzie’s color! Well dreams do come true! Thank you [Hilary Duff] for trusting me to create the perfect blonde for the next chapter of Lizzie McGuire!” Nikki gushed in her caption.

The hairstylist even shared her top tips for achieving Lizzie's beachy blonde look at home.

Never in a million years did I think I would be doing Lizzie's color!🙌🏼 Well dreams do come true!💫 Thank you @hilaryduff for trusting me to create the perfect blonde for the next chapter of Lizzie Mcguire! 😘 And thank you @joico for helping my creativity flow effortlessly! Xx♥️ . For all you stylists out there whose clients are going to want to look like Lizzie...😍 Here's my formula break down: I did a full head highlight using @joico Blonde Life Powder Lightener with 30 Volume LumiShine Developer at the root, 20 volume through the mid-shaft, and 10 volume through the ends when needed. After she lifted to a pale yellow I did a root tap about 2 inches out at the bowl using Joico LumiShine Demi-Permanent Liquid 6N with 5 Volume LumiShine Developer For her hair line and a bit of the mid shaft I used Joico LumiShine Demi-Permanent Liquid equal parts 6N + 8N with 5 Volume LumiShine Developer My all over toner was Joico LumiShine Demi-Permanent Liquid 9NV + 10N + 10SB with 5 Volume LumiShine Developer. I applied this while the root tap was still on and let everything process together for 15mins...Xx

While we're a little disappointed to see a distinct lack of butterfly clips in Lizzie's hair look, we're super keen for this reboot nonetheless.

What we know about the show so far is that the series picks up with Lizzie at age 30, working as an apprentice to an interior designer in New York City.

She has a boyfriend in the series (who sadly, isn't Gordo) who is a restauranteur at a flashy joint in SoHo.

"The good news is, just like me and everybody who loved Lizzie and has grown up with her, Lizzie’s also grown up,” Hilary said on stage during the announcement about the reboot. “She’s older, she’s wiser, she has a much bigger shoe budget, which is super exciting. She has her dream job. She has kind of the perfect life right now.” 

However, her world is turned upside when she gets an opportunity to move to Los Angeles.

While we don't have an exact premiere date yet, we do know that it's set to stream on Disney+. Stay tuned for more deets!
