Sheldon Coopers reunite
A collage is doing the rounds on X, which shows Iain and Jim posing together. It’s a Then & Now collage – the first one being from the Young Sheldon season one premiere in 2017, and the second one being from the upcoming finale. While Jim Parsons looks more or less similar, it’s the little Iain Armitage who looks all grown up in the new still.
The internet echoed similar thoughts. An X user commented, “So grown up, man (crying emoji).” Another wrote, “Time goes by so fast.” “Perfect casting for Young Sheldon,” read a third comment. A user commented cheekily, “Once the show is over older Sheldon will absorb the life force of the younger one, the show was simply a ritual to get young Sheldon’s body ready for the transference of youth.”
