John Ross Bowie, known for his roles in “The Rookie” and “Brooklyn Nine-Nine,” has been cast in the upcoming spin-off of the popular sitcom “The Big Bang Theory.” This news was recently confirmed by entertainment industry sources.

From 2017 to 2024, a prequel spin-off titled “Young Sheldon” also aired, which has now spawned its own spin-off series.
