Duff took to Instagram to post her appeal to Disney, saying she remains passionate about project but she believes re is a “huge responsibility” on makers to create a show that will feel more “auntic” to fans.

“I’d be doing a disservice to everyone by limiting realities of a 30 year old’s journey to live under ceiling of a PG rating. It’s important to me that just as her experiences as a preteen/teenr navigating life were auntic, her next chapters are equally as real and relatable.

“It would be a dream if Disney would let us move show to Hulu, if y were interested, and I could bring this beloved character to life again,” actor posted on Friday.

new series, which was anunced in August last year during company’s D23 Expo, was put on hiatus after showrunner Terri Minsky left project over creative differences with streamer.

In an interview with Variety later, Minsky explained that her plan to make show more “mature” was t in line with Disney’s vision which wanted show to cater to its core base of family audiences.
