Fans of The Big Bang Theory universe, get ready for some exciting news. Chuck Lorre, the creator behind the beloved sitcom and its spinoffs, has teased that an update on the upcoming Big Bang Theory spinoff is just around the corner. While The Big Bang Theory, Young Sheldon, and the newer Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage have all found success on CBS, this new spinoff is set to stream on Max.
The cast is already starting to come together, with Kevin Sussman (Stuart Bloom), Brian Posehn (Bert Kibbler), and Lauren Lapkus (Denise) officially joining the project. These actors are no strangers to fans of the franchise and are expected to bring their unique charm to the new series.
In an interview with Screen Rant’s Grant Hermanns for Bookie season 2, Lorre shared an update on the project, hinting that big news would be announced soon. “It’s actually several years of conversations, and I can’t really go into detail on it yet, but hopefully, after the new year, we’ll have something to discuss,” Lorre said.
What This Means for the Spinoff’s Progress
This upcoming spinoff may have taken longer to develop compared to Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage, which aired quickly due to its close ties to Young Sheldon. Unlike its predecessor, this new series will be the first in the franchise developed for a streaming platform instead of traditional network TV. This shift has posed unique challenges but also opens the door to more creative freedom.
The involvement of Sussman, Posehn, and Lapkus shows that the spinoff is actively moving forward. If the 2025 announcement comes through as anticipated, it may signal that the project has officially been greenlit and is closer to production. This update would provide fans with more concrete details on the show’s storyline and cast, creating buzz as the project takes its next steps.
Why This Spinoff Could Be Different
While Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage benefited from an established cast and creative team, this spinoff featuring Stuart, Bert, and Denise is an uncharted venture. These characters were memorable on The Big Bang Theory, but whether they can lead their own series remains uncertain. The announcement in 2025 will be crucial, as it could address key questions about the show’s direction and potential for success.
For now, fans can look forward to what Lorre has in store and hope that the unique trio can carry on the legacy of The Big Bang Theory in a fresh and compelling way.
