Lizzie McGuire dad actor looks unrecognisable in rare appearance with co-stars
Robert Carradine met up with a number of his Lizzie McGuire co-stars almost two decades on from the hit show.
And the 69-year-old, who played Lizzie's dad, showed off an unrecognisable look as he set on the couch to chat on the show-related podcast which is headed up by Jake Thomas, who played Lizzie's brother Matt on the popular series.
Jake, 33, started the podcast with pal Davida Williams, 36, who took on the role as Lizzie's enemy on the Disney Channel.
The pair were pleased to welcome Robert to the latest of their Living Lizzie: A Very McGuire Podcast sessions which is also videoed for their YouTube channel.
And Robert's appearance would have shocked avid fans of the show, with him no longer sporting his trim figure and dark locks.

""How's it going? It's been a while," Jake said. before Robert pleasantly replied: "Good. You're looking 20 years older."
"Ah," Jake jokingly groaned. "Don't remind me."
Robert quietly agreed before asking: "I am too, right?" he asked. "I mean yeah."
But Jake, in a way to swerve any insulting comments that could slip out, responded: "To me, you've always just been the adult."
They went on to discuss first landing their famous roles, with Robert admitting when he first auditioned for the show he didn't think he stood a chance in being cast.

The appearance on the podcast was a rare chance for fans to see Robert as he looks now. The star's social media posts are full of throwback snaps of him and his family and his last "current" photo came in December 2021.
