The “Young Sheldon” cast had their share of roles before that show came on air. From Iain Armitage’s breakout performance in HBO’s “Big Little Lies” to Zoe Perry’s appearances in shows like “Scandal” and “Grey’s Anatomy,” this talented ensemble brings their charm and talent to the prequel of “The Big Bang Theory.”
