Why Pixar Isn’t Creating an Animated ‘Big Bang Theory’ Movie
Unlikelihood of Pixar Collaboration
Unfortunately, Pixar is not working on an animated “Big Bang Theory” film. As fascinating as it would be to see characters like Sheldon, Leonard, and Penny (Kaley Cuoco) step into the world of animation, it’s unlikely Pixar would be at the helm of such a project. The studio has previously never adapted any intellectual properties, and seeing as Pixar is owned by Disney and “Big Bang Theory” and its prequel series “Young Sheldon” are produced by Warner Bros., it’s hard to imagine the crossover ever happening.
Absence of Movie Plans
Also, there are no plans for a feature-length “Big Bang Theory” movie (either animated or live-action), with the franchise still doing exceptionally well on television. “Young Sheldon” is on track to receive its own spin-off, signaling that the property has plenty of room to grow on the small screen. It’s possible that an animated “Big Bang Theory” show will pop up in the future, but that isn’t in the cards as of this writing either.
Possibility of a Reunion
While it may disappoint fans that there’s no “Big Bang Theory” movie in production, a reunion isn’t entirely off the table. The “Young Sheldon” series finale features both Jim Parsons and Mayim Bialik, revealing that the franchise’s stars are more than willing to return to their roles if the story is right.
