Will Sheldon Return in Georgie & Mandy's First Marriage? Creators Say Yes
But you should only expect him to pop up on special occasions.
Sheldon Cooper may be having his best time studying physics in CalTech far away from his family, but he’s still pretty much expected at home, and the whole family reunion may take place in Young Sheldon ’s upcoming spinoff titled Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage.
The future show has already secured Meemaw, Mary and Missy’s return to the story, though so far there hasn’t been any confirmation regarding Iain Armitage’s comeback as Sheldon.
Still, the recent revelations from the show’s creators are very real-life-coded, and we can all expect the fan-favorite character to go back home, yet for a very specific reason.
Will We See Iain Armitage in Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage?
Talking about the upcoming spinoff’s potential storylines, the creators and producers of Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage revealed that they weren’t yet able to confirm Armitage’s return to the role in the spinoff, but they had already come up with a certain plan of how to reintroduce the young scientist.
Since Sheldon was sent off to college in California in Young Sheldon’s finale and Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage picks the story up roughly a month after his departure, it seems pretty obvious that Sheldon wouldn’t be a frequent guest at home in Texas since his studies would now require his almost constant presence in California.
However, he may still find some time to pay a visit to his family, according to the upcoming spinoff’s executive producer Steve Holland.
As he stated, “this is a world where this family exists and can be a part of this world. We love all these actors. Sheldon is in Pasadena going to school, but I think for a Christmas or a Thanksgiving [episode], we would love to have him stop by.”
Holland also specified that there is no real need to reintroduce any of Young Sheldon’s actors as guest stars since they’re already part of the franchise and thus can come and go every so often.
Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage is set to premiere on October 17 on CBS.
