Who's Going To Play Missy In Young Sheldon's Sequel Georgie & Mandy's First Marriage? Show' Producer Steve Holland Teases Update
Missy’s role expands in Georgie & Mandy's First Marriage, offering a chance to redeem her character after her rushed exit in Young Sheldon.
In Georgie & Mandy's First Marriage, Missy's role has been expanded beyond its original limited plan. Raegan Revord, who took over the role of Sheldon's twin sister from The Big Bang Theory's Courtney Henggeler in the prequel, returns as Missy in this new show.
While Missy is quite different from her brother, she has her appeal as a character. Although she was underused in Young Sheldon, Season 6 gave her a bigger storyline. However, when the final season was shortened, Missy’s role was again reduced, and the Young Sheldon finale did little to change that.
Revord is confirmed to return for more episodes of Georgie & Mandy's First Marriage, according to a report from TV Insider. While it’s unclear how many episodes she will appear in, the show plans to make her a recurring character. A significant part of Georgie's story will involve him keeping his sister in check while also caring for Mandy and their baby, Cece.
Missy's increased presence is welcome news for fans, especially considering her disappointing send-off in Young Sheldon. While Georgie & Mandy's First Marriage will focus more on Mandy's family, the McAllisters, it’s important to keep the Coopers involved.
Missy’s expanded role will help maintain continuity with The Big Bang Theory, where it was established that Georgie took care of his sister after their father’s unexpected death.
Missy’s character arc in Young Sheldon showed her struggling with feelings of neglect, leading to rebellious behavior. With her father gone and her mother overwhelmed with grief, Missy will need Georgie and his new family for support.
Show's executive producer Steve Holland said in an interview with the TV Insider, “We’re going to see a slightly different Missy, she’s gone through the loss of her dad and she’s acting out. She’s [becoming] rebellious.”
Holland added about Georgie's character in the show, “He’s trying to balance being a husband and a father and also being a caretaker to his sister, who’s having some struggles.”
Although it's uncertain how long Georgie & Mandy's First Marriage will run, The Big Bang Theory has already hinted at Missy's future, including her first marriage ending in divorce and her eventual remarriage with more kids.
