“The beginning was a phone call from Jim Parsons,” Lorre recalled. “Who sent me a video of his 10-year-old nephew in Texas who is a prodigy – brilliant, extraordinary, off the hook, crazy smart kid. And Jim asked, ‘Is there anything we can do with this?'”
“I said, ‘Well, if we wanted to do a show about a young man who is brilliant – a comedy – we have that built into our show,'” he continued. “‘That’s the backstory of Sheldon Cooper.'” That said, Parsons himself previously noted while his nephew is “very smart,” he differs from Sheldon in other ways.
As part of the announcement, CBS Entertainment President Amy Reisenbach praised the way Young Sheldon “set itself apart with a remarkable cast that felt like a family from the first moment we saw them on screen.”
