‘Stuart Fails to Save the Universe’ Star Teases ‘Big Bang Theory’ Easter Eggs as Fan-Favorite Boards Spinoff
Wil Wheaton appears briefly in a new HBO Max sizzle reel as Stuart Bloom races to restore reality after breaking Sheldon and Leonard's device.
HBO Max released a sizzle reel on Sunday confirming actor Wil Wheaton's cameo in the upcoming spinoff 'Stuart Fails to Save the Universe,' showing him firing an energy blast at Stuart, Denise, Bert, and Kripke inside the comic book store.
The spinoff's multiverse premise allows alternate-universe versions of characters from the original series, supporting Wheaton's appearance as a different iteration of his previous role as Sheldon Cooper's adversary.
During his original run, Wheaton appeared in 17 episodes spanning seasons 3 through 12, with his connection to Stuart Bloom established in 'The D & D Vortex' episode where he hosted the show's final Dungeons and Dragons game.
Wheaton's appearance has sent hardcore Big Bang Theory fans into excitement, sparking speculation that legacy characters like Sheldon, Leonard, Penny, Raj, and Howard could return in alternate forms without disrupting their established storylines.
Created by Chuck Lorre and Bill Prady with original music by Oscar-nominee Danny Elfman, 'Stuart Fails to Save the Universe' premieres in July on HBO Max as the third Big Bang Theory spinoff following previous successes 'Young Sheldon' and 'Georgie & Mandy's First Marriage.
