However, despite the show touting a loyal fan base, Jim Parson revealed he is uninterested in reprising Sheldon Cooper’s role in a potential sequel.
The actor who recently returned as Sheldon Cooper in the “Young Sheldon” series finale told E! News it would take “Reincarnation” for him to consider reprising his role. He added perhaps in the “Next Lifetime.”

Meanwhile, Jim Parsons, who narrated “Young Sheldon” throughout the show’s lifetime, recalled his experience returning to the prequel series finale.
He said, “It was very special to do that. The feeling today is kind of odd. It’s the second time now because when we ended The Big Bang Theory, it felt like this too. It’s a little bit different, but you shoot that final episode, and it’s wrapped for you. And then a couple of months later, it wraps for the rest of the world, and it’s a very weird feeling to flood over you again like that.”
Parsons’ reluctance to reprise the role has also dashed hopes of a potential sequel to the beloved series.
