Dewey Actor Erik Per Sullivan Seen After 18-Year Hiatus

Erik Per Sullivan, known for his role as Dewey in 'Malcolm in the Middle', was recently spotted in Boston for the first time in 18 years, reigniting interest in the former child star. Now 33, he has largely avoided the public eye since stepping away from acting after the show ended in 2006, focusing instead on his education and currently pursuing a graduate degree in Victorian literature. Sullivan's absence from the upcoming Disney+ reboot of 'Malcolm in the Middle' has been confirmed, with his character Dewey being recast by Caleb Ellsworth-Clark. His former co-stars, including Frankie Muniz and Bryan Cranston, will reprise their roles, but Sullivan has opted for a quieter life away from Hollywood. Despite not participating in the revival, his co-stars have shared that he is doing well and has remained on good terms with them. Sullivan's last credited role was in the 2010 film 'Twelve', and he has not taken on any acting roles since then.
