Description

Jim Parsons is an actor who became famous starring as Sheldon on The Big Bang Theory. But what you might not know about the on-screen super-nerd is that he's a classically trained stage actor. After twelve years playing the same character, now he's trying on new roles (Hollywood, Spoiler Alert, A Man of No Importance) that allow him to flex some different creative muscles. He talks to Guy about his lifelong ambition to be a star, the uncertainty of coming out, his love of New York City, and the first, scary steps taking on new roles.Links from the show: The Best of Sheldon from The Big Bang TheoryThe Big Bang Theory cast talks with Stephen Colbert after the series finaleJim talks about playing Henry Wilson in HollywoodSpoiler Alert (2022) TrailerJim's InstagramKaley Cuoco's InstagramMayim Bialik's InstagramJohnny Galecki's InstagramSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
