Georgie & Mandy Make New Friends as ‘Young Sheldon’ Spin-Off Adds to Cast
The road to Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage continues with new cast members joining the project that will expand on the narrative established in Young Sheldon. Deadline reports that Jessie Prez and Dougie Baldwin have been cast in regular roles for the spinoff. Prez is set to step into the shoes of Ruben, a man who’s been working at the McAllister’s tire store for a long time. He won’t be happy about Georgie (Montana Jordan) being hired by the company he respects so much. When it comes to Baldwin, the actor will portray Connor McAllister, Mandy’s younger brother.
Montana Jordan and Emily Osment return to the titular roles of Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage. The characters began dating over the course of Young Sheldon, with their bond turning out to be controversial for their families due to their age difference. Nevertheless, Mandy got pregnant. And with CBS looking to expand on the legacy they created when The Big Bang Theory premiered on television, it was decided that another spinoff would be produced. The new series is currently set to premiere on October 17, from 8:00 to 8:30 PM ET/PT. The comedy is said to have plenty of surprises in store.
Some of the Young Sheldon cast members will reprise their roles in Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage. Annie Potts, Raegan Revord and Zoe Perry will make a comeback, as the Cooper family decides to pay the happy couple a visit. It makes sense for Meemaw, Missy and Mary Cooper to show up once again, considering how raising Baby Cece will represent a major challenge for Mandy and Georgie. While it might be nice for fans to see their favorite characters one more time, Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage will have to rely on its leads if it wants any chance of being successful. The returning Cooper family members will only be featured as guest roles.
