The two actors worked together in Big Fat Liar in 2002. Directed by Shawn Levythe movie is considered one of the classics of the early 2000s that caters to kids well.

In a recent interview with Us WeeklyFrankie Muniz recalled his time in Hollywood as a child actor. When asked if he’s still in contact with Amanda Bynes, his co-star from Agent Cody Banks and Big Fat Liar, he said, ‘Honestly, no.”

Muniz further shared, “I’ve talked to Angie [Harmon] a bit here and there. I haven’t talked to or seen Hilary since the premiere of Agent Cody Banks.” He added, “It would be great to get everyone back together. My biggest fault is that I’m bad at communication. I want to be the person that gets the gang back together. Maybe that’s what I’ll do next.”

The Malcolm in the Middle star also admitted that he had a crush on Bynes before working with her. He said, “As a kid actor in New York City, going on auditions, my dream was to be on All That. I had the biggest crush on Amanda,” Muniz shared.

The 39-year-old actor continued to talk about hosting an award show with Amanda Bynes. He said, “I was supposed to co-host Nickelodeon’s Kids’ Choice Awards in 2000, and I knew Amanda was [a presenter].”

Muniz recalled, “My mom got a call from Gail Berman, who was the president of Fox, and my mom’s screaming, and she’s like, “You got asked to host Saturday Night Live.” [But it was the same date as the Kids’ Choice Awards]so I turned it down. So I met Amanda and we became friends; we talked to each other on AOL.”

Frankie Muniz concluded by saying, “ There was never any secret dating. After the premiere of Big Fat Liar, I saw her a few times, but we lost touch.” Praising Bynes’ work ethic, he also stated that he “wished her nothing but happiness.”
