The new project would be the second "Big Bang Theory" spinoff, following "Young Sheldon," currently in its sixth season. It stars Iain Armitage as Sheldon Cooper, a socially impaired child genius introduced as an adult played by Jim Parsons in the original series.

"The Big Bang Theory" ran for 12 seasons on CBS from 2007-2019 and won 12 Emmys. It is also the longest-running multicamera comedy in TV history.
