Cranston, who later went on to lead one of the biggest shows in TV history ‘Breaking Bad’, essayed the role of Hal in ‘Malcolm in the Middle’.

"He (Cranston) still reaches out to me every couple of weeks (to) check in on me. He really cares about what I'm doing, comes to the races, if my band was playing, came to shows. I mean, he's such an inspiration, and like I said, that's what I strive to be that for someone else in the future," Muniz said on the 'Inside of You' podcast.

The actor, 38, also recalled working with Cranston, 68 when he was in his pre-teens.

"When I was 11, 12 years old, he really became like a father figure to me. And then even still to this day, you know, he's essentially like a Hollywood god at this point. You know what I mean? Like he's done incredible films, incredible shows, won tons of awards. Like he's literally 'It'," he added.

Muniz most recently appeared in the reality show "I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here! Australia", whereas Cranston appeared in the action comedy film ‘Argylle’.
