He is perhaps best known as the star of the popular Fox Network television situation comedy, Malcolm in the Middle, as well as several films aimed at teenage audiences, including Agent Cody Banks.
He appeared in commercials and made his film debut in the made-for-television movie, To Dance With Olivia (1997), starring Lou Gossett Jr. The same year, he appeared in the CBS Hallmark Hall of Fame presentation of What the Deaf Man Heard. A small role in the film Lost & Found (1999) led up to the breakthrough role, which would make him a familiar face in millions of households.
FOX premiered Malcolm in the Middle on January 9, 2000, as a mid-season replacement, and the show was quickly swamped with accolades. The premiere episode was watched by 23 million people; and the second episode by 26 million. Muniz anchored the show with his narration and central role in many of the series' plots, although he has said that he does not consider himself a comic actor and does not find himself funny. He was nominated for Golden Globes in 2000 and 2001, the Emmy Awards in 2001, and was honored with the Hollywood Reporter 'Young Star Award' for his work in the series.
Throughout his television career, Muniz made guest appearances on the shows Lizzie McGuire, Sabrina, the Teenage Witch, and MADtv. His first starring role in a feature film was as 'Willie Morris' in the family period piece My Dog Skip (2000), released around the same time as the pilot for Malcolm In The Middle. He then contributed a voice to the animal cast of Dr. Dolittle 2 (2001). He had a moderate hit with the 2002 release Big Fat Liar.
Frankie Muniz subsequently played the title role in the film Agent Cody Banks, as well its sequel, Agent Cody Banks 2: Destination London.
Muniz had a cameo in the comedy Stuck on You and voiced a racing zebra, 'Stripes', in the 2005 film Racing Stripes. His latest film, the horror movie Stay Alive, opened on March 24, 2006. In April 2006, he began filming My Sexiest Year, an independent film which will be shot in New York City and Miami, and which will star Harvey Keitel as Muniz' father. Muniz' character will have a love scene in the film. Malcolm in the Middle finished its run in May 2006.
In April 2006, Muniz announced he was taking a break from acting to pursue a career in race car driving, with a full-time two year racing deal with Jensen Motorsport in the Formula BMW competition, saying: 'Truthfully, I think it will be easier for me to leave for a while and come back to acting when I'm 23, 24 and be an adult and start fresh'. In May 2006, despite his announcement to temporarily leave acting, Muniz signed on to star in the teen sex comedy Parental Guidance Suggested.
