This Is What The Cast Of “The Big Bang Theory” Looks Like In Real Life
After many years of working in TV, The Big Bang Theory made Jim Parsons a star. He is originally from Houston and has appeared in films like Hidden Figures and The Muppets. He married his long-time partner Todd Spiewak in May 2017.
Theoretical physicist Leonard Hofstadter withstood living with Sheldon and his iron-clad “roommate agreement” for much of The Big Bang Theory before Sheldon moved in with his girlfriend, Amy. Leonard finally managed to put a ring on on-again/off-again love interest Penny’s finger in the show’s seventh season.
First known for his role as David on Roseanne, Johnny Galecki now plays the conventional scientist to Jim Parson’s Sheldon and his array of quirks. Galecki also performs in a duet band when he’s not filming The Big Bang Theory.
Raj’s mother hasn’t appeared on the show except on a computer screen when video chatting with Raj and Raj’s sister.
British actress Alice Amter has been living in the U.S. for over 20 years. She and Brian George were only supposed to have a one-time role on the show as Raj’s parents, but their characters were popular enough to make return appearances.
Raj’s sister Priya came to the U.S. and stayed with Raj for a period of time. She is an accomplished lawyer and also dated Leonard when he and Penny were on a break.
Like the actors that play her parents, Aarti Mann’s role on The Big Bang Theory was expanded after originally being planned for a smaller part. After studying theater at NYU, Mann appeared in a film directed by her sister, Kruti Majmudar, called The Memsahib, and she has also appeared on Heroes.
Despite his good looks, Rajesh “Raj” Koothrappali has not been lucky in love on The Big Bang Theory. In fact, the astrophysicist used to need a drink in order to talk to women, but he’s at least moved past that phase.
London-born, New Delhi-raised Kunal Nayyar came to the U.S. to study business at the University of Portland. However, his passion for acting won out and The Big Bang Theory was one of his first big roles. He’s married to fashion designer Neha Kapur Nayyar and is an experienced golfer.
