Late last year Disney Plus revealed they were working on a new version of the show.

However, Disney have since moved away from the project.

Sources tell Variety that Minsky and Hilary Duff wanted a more adult version of the show.

Disney were initially on board with their approach but executives weren't happy with the content when on set.

It's believed Disney want the show to be more family friendly.

'Hilary has a grasp of Lizzie McGuire at 30 that needs to be seen. It’s a wonderful thing to watch.'

'I would love the show to exist, but ideally I would love it if it could be given that treatment of going to Hulu and doing the show that we were doing.'

Minsky finished, 'That’s the part where I am completely in the dark. It’s important to me that this show was important to people.'

She adds, 'I felt like I wanted to do a show that was worthy of that kind of devotion.
