young sheldon tells the story of Sheldon Cooper years before the events of Big Bang Theory. It shows the brilliant and socially awkward Sheldon growing up with his father, mother, and his siblings in the fictional town of Medford, Texas. Iain Armitage plays young Sheldon Cooper.
young sheldon is loosely based on Jim Parsons’ brilliant nephew.
Jim Parsons said Entertainment Weekly In 2017, CBS approached him to create a series about the life of Sheldon Cooper. He looked to his family for inspiration and discovered that his young nephew shared similarities with Sheldon. “So we thought, this sounds like a good idea. And the more we talked, they’re in Texas, and this ties in,” Parsons said.
Series creator Chuck Lorre said THR that after Parsons sent him the video of his ‘brilliant, extraordinary, carefree, crazy smart’ cousin, he decided to start working on the show. Lorre explained:
“And Jim asked, ‘Is there anything we can do with this?’ I said, ‘Well, if we wanted to do a show about a bright young man, a comedy, we have it built into our show. That’s Sheldon Cooper’s backstory. “Throughout the Big Bang years, we learned about his mother, we learned about his upbringing in Texas, his sister and his brother.”
