“The Big Bang Theory” spinoff series, “Stuart Fails to Save the Universe,” will be available to stream on HBO Max, beginning in July.
The show stars “Big Bang Theory” alums Kevin Sussman, Lauren Lapkus, Brian Posehn and John Ross Bowie, who made the announcement Sunday at the “Stuart Fails to Save the Universe” panel at CCXP Mexico City.
The panel also revealed that the original theme music for the series will be created by Emmy and Grammy Award winner, Danny Elfman, best known for his work on various Tim Burton films such as “The Nightmare Before Christmas” and “Corpse Bride.”
Per the logline, “comic book store owner Stuart Bloom is tasked with restoring reality after he breaks a device built by Sheldon and Leonard, accidentally bringing about a multiverse Armageddon. Stuart is aided in this quest by his girlfriend Denise, geologist friend Bert, and quantum physicist/all-around pain in the ass Barry Kripke. Along the way, they meet alternate-universe versions of characters we’ve come to know and love from ‘The Big Bang Theory.’ As the title implies, things don’t go well.”
The show was originally announced as being in development back in April 2023 and is co-created by Chuck Lorre, Zak Penn, and Bill Prady.
The series is produced by Chuck Lorre Productions in association with Warner Bros. Television, where Lorre is under an overall deal. Lorre, Penn, and Prady are also executive producers.
“Stuart Fails to Save the Universe” is the fourth show in the “Big Bang” universe. Aside from the mothership show, which ran for 12 highly-rated seasons on CBS, the prequel “Young Sheldon” wrapped up its own seven-season run at the broadcast network in May 2024. A spinoff of that show, “Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage”, starring Montana Jordan and Emily Osment, debuted on CBS in October 2024.
