Jim Parsons Joins Iain Armitage On Young Sheldon’s Set In Playful BTS TikTok Video

Summary Jim Parsons will make an appearance as adult Sheldon in the Young Sheldon series finale, tying up his character's story arc.

A new TikTok video featuring Parsons and Iain Armitage teases the crossover between Young Sheldon and The Big Bang Theory.

Mayim Bialik will also appear in the finale, leaving fans speculating about the possibility of a make-shift The Big Bang Theory reunion.

Jim Parsons teams up with Iain Armitage for a fun Young Sheldon social media post ahead of the series finale. Despite being the narrator and executive producer of Young Sheldon, Parsons never made an appearance in the show. However, that's all about to change in the Young Sheldon series finale, which is confirmed to physically feature Parsons as adult Sheldon for the first time. The actor has already filmed his scenes, and it's being used to promote the upcoming end of Young Sheldon.

On Young Sheldon's official TikTok, Armitage and Parsons come together for a fun social media trend. Watch the video below:

The clip starts with Armitage supposedly trying a new filter that would show him what he looks like when he grows up. When the video cuts, it comes back with Parsons, highlighting that they play the same character in The Big Bang Theory/Young Sheldon universe.

Specific plot details about the special one-hour Young Sheldon finale are still scant at the moment. That being said, Parsons will be joined by Mayim Bialik as Amy Farrah-Fowler; it will also be her first time appearing in The Big Bang Theory spinoff after making a couple of voice cameos over the years. Their involvement will likely be via a flashforward scene, which will explain why Sheldon has been recounting the events of his childhood. Theories suggest that he may be working on his autobiography on the heels of winning the Nobel Prize

For a while, Young Sheldon season 7 has been sidelining Sheldon, which was a switch from his final arc in The Big Bang Theory. As the prequel winds down, however, it has been shifting its storytelling back to the boy genius. It's curious if adult Sheldon's narration will eventually be a lead-in to Parsons' eventual appearance, or Young Sheldon will simply end with a shot of him with his family with Amy in Pasadena. There are also hopes that other members of the Pasadena gang will make a cameo for a make-shift The Big Bang Theory reunion.

Whatever the case may be, expect that Parsons' adult Sheldon cameo will tie up the character's arc. Unlike Georgie and Mandy, whose story will continue via their sequel show, this will likely be the end of Sheldon's small-screen adventures. He can still make guest appearances in the Young Sheldon spinoff, but it won't be enough to significantly move his arc forward.

Young Sheldon season 7 airs every Thursday, 8pm ET on CBS.
