Hilary Duff has been out of the spotlight for quite some time. She's never really left show business but after starring in the hit Disney series Lizzie McGuire, it seems that her career has been slowly fading. Sure she's had a couple of guest roles on Joan of Arcadia and George Lopez, and added several film credits to her name for her work in A Cinderella Story, The Perfect Man and Material Girls. But for the most part, the 21-year-old actress hasn't been visible on the small screen as she was in her younger years.

Fortunately, NBC has presented Duff the opportunity to get back in the game. This time, she's taking the lead in Barely Legal, a new comedy based on the true life story of Kathleen Holtz.

Hilary Duff rocketed to stardom when she was cast on the Disney teen series Lizzie McGuire. She played the lead character, Elizabeth “Lizzie” Brooke McGuire, a preppy schoolgirl who dealt with typical teenage issues. Her best friends on the show included Miranda Sanchez (Ann Vergara-Paras) and David "Gordo" Gordon (Adam Lamberg), whom she had a crush on in the fourth grade. Her sweet, talented and athletic character, not to mention her quirky clumsy side, which often became a running-gag throughout the series, ultimately made Duff a crowd favorite and an idol for many youngsters.

Three years have passed since the end of Lizzie McGuire but the 19-year-old celebrity still remains active in the limelight as a singer, actress and entrepreneur.

Younger viewers came to know Robert Carradine as Samuel "Sam" McGuire on Disney’s Lizzie McGuire. As Matt and Lizzie’s father, he was considered as slightly goofy and clueless about raising a teenager. On the other hand, he was always available to lend a helping hand. He added whim and quirkiness to the show whenever he enjoyed the clever schemes of his children, which often led to the distress of wife Jo. Moreover, he illustrated a great deal of clumsiness, which daughter Lizzie seemingly inherited. At present, he remains in the limelight with his upcoming movie projects.
