The series will pick up with Stuart Bloom (played by Kevin Sussman) – owner of the comic book shop frequented by the nerdy characters of the original series – as he is thrown into a fittingly sci-fi-themed adventure.
It continues: "Stuart is aided in this quest by his girlfriend Denise [Lauren Lapkus], geologist friend Bert [Brian Posehn] and quantum physicist/all-around pain in the ass Barry Kripke [John Ross Bowie].
Stuart Fails to Save the Universe stars Sussman, Lapkus, Posehn and Ross Bowie were all recurring players in the original sitcom, but this latest spin-off will place them centre-stage for the first time – in a story influenced by recent comic book fare.
Here's hoping that Stuart Fails to Save the Universe can find some new angles to delight viewers, with the prospect of alternate versions of Sheldon (Jim Parsons), Leonard (Johnny Galecki) and Penny (Kaley Cuoco) sure to intrigue longtime fans.
Executive producer Chuck Lorre, returning from the original series, said: "I wanted to do something radical that would take me out of my comfort zone. Something the characters on The Big Bang Theory would have loved, hated, and argued about."
"I couldn’t resist that idea, so I packed up my yurt and hailed the next dirigible out. At the same time, Chuck sent an expedition to locate Bill Prady, who had been frozen with his shield across his chest in a block of arctic ice.
Prady described Stuart Fails to Save the Universe as a "complex science fiction story", keeping it distinct from earlier The Big Bang Theory spin-offs Young Sheldon and Georgie & Mandy's First Marriage, which are more traditional sitcoms.
