The Big Bang Theory fans may not have seen the last of Penny. Kaley Cuoco recently sparked excitement after hinting she could reprise her iconic role in an upcoming spin-off of the hit sitcom.
In a new interview with Entertainment Tonight, Cuoco was asked directly whether she might return as Penny. While she stopped short of confirming anything, her reaction spoke volumes. Staring wide-eyed at the camera, Cuoco joked, “Big eyes! I don’t know what that tells you,” prompting the interviewer to point out that it definitely wasn’t a “no.”
Fans quickly took notice, flooding social media with theories that Cuoco may already be involved in the new project. Many pointed out that “the eyes never lie,” while others openly pleaded for Penny’s return.
Cuoco also made it clear how much the character still means to her. Calling Penny one of her favorite roles, she said the show “changed my life” and described her time on The Big Bang Theory as unforgettable — leaving the door wide open for a potential comeback.
