Adult Sheldon’s cameo in the Young Sheldon Season 7 finale is “beautiful,” according to Big Bang Theory actor Jim Parsons.
The prequel seriesannouncedthat Parsons and Mayim Bialik — who played Amy Cooper inThe Big Bang Theory— would physically appear in the Young Sheldon Season 7 finale on May 16, though details of exactly how they will feature have largely been kept under wraps.
However,speakingto The Hollywood Reporter, the Sheldon actor has revealed that his upcoming cameo is “so beautiful.”
“It was even more beautiful than I expected it to be,” Parsons explained. “One of the reasons I was excited to do it is because what they wrote is so sweet and I think they worked Mayim [Bialik] and I into that show so beautifully. I hope everyone agrees.
“But also for us the way that they tape — because they’re a single-camera show and we’re multi-camera — the whole look of the show was a really special experience,” he continued. “To get to go with Mayim, in a world we’re really guests and revisit these characters a little older, just a completely different circumstance.”
InSeasons 1-6 of Young Sheldon, Jim Parsons has served as a long-standing voiceover for each episode, though has never been linked to the prequel series in any other way.
