The Big Bang Theory spinoff's cast so far includes Kevin Sussman, Brian Posehn, and Lauren Lapkus reprising their roles as Stuart Bloom, Bert Kibbler, and Denise from the original CBS series.
Deadline has confirmed that Prady has ed the spinoff's creative team, along with writer Zak Penn, who has previously written scripts for The Avengers, Ready Player One, and Free Guy. Lorre, Prady, and Penn are co-writing the spinoff's script and will executive produce the series. The spinoff marks Lorre and Prady's first major collaboration since The Big Bang Theory, as Prady was only involved as a consulting producer on the franchise's first spinoff, Young Sheldon.
What This Means For The Big Bang Theory Spinoff
Development Has Taken A Significant Step Forward
Prady and Penn's involvement is a promising sign that development of The Big Bang Theory spinoff is accelerating. Lorre and Prady's reunion indicates that the spinoff will be returning to the roots of The Big Bang Theory's creation and what made the sitcom a hit in the first place. In a previous Big Bang Theory spinoff update, Lorre promised that "after the new year, we'll have something to discuss," which is likely based on the progress being made in his collaboration with Prady and Penn.
The Big Bang Theory’s 8 Best Side Characters, Ranked
The Big Bang Theory is celebrated for its memorable ing cast, but eight standout characters sur them all.
Penn is a more surprising addition to the creative team, not only because he is new to the franchise, but because most of the scripts he has written have been for movies and not for television. His only television credits are the superhero drama Alphas and the science-fiction thriller Beacon 23. Given that he has not written a television sitcom before, Penn's involvement will likely help to bring a fresh perspective to The Big Bang Theory franchise that Lorre and Prady launched and have worked on for years.

More Enticing Updates Are Imminent
After much discussion, but seemingly little movement with the spinoff, it is exciting to see a major step being taken in its development. Stuart, Bert, and Denise are hopefully only a few of The Big Bang Theory characters who will return for the series. The spinoff has a chance to be a sequel to be a satisfying sequel to the original series, an exciting prospect given that the other spinoffs have been primarily set in the past. Now that the script is being written, more updates about The Big Bang Theory spinoff are sure to follow in 2025.
