Young Sheldon’s Montana Jordan and Emily Osment Talk First Impressions and Favorite Georgie/Mandy Moments
Emily Osment had her reservations about scene partner Montana Jordan when she first stepped foot on the set of Young Sheldon midway through Season 5.
“I think I asked like five different people if you were over 18 because you looked so young,” Osment tells Jordan in the video above. “I think I was 29 or 30 at the time… and that was new for me. I mean, usually, it goes the other way. Usually, I’m like, how old is this guy? So, it was refreshing.”
In Part 2 of TVLine’s wide-ranging interview with the Young Sheldon stars, Osment and Jordan reflect on their first impressions of each other, their favorite Georgie and Mandy moments (in the lead-up to their characters’ wedding on Thursday, April 11), and what it’ll be like to say goodbye to the Big Bang Theory prequel before they head off to headline their own, as-yet-untitled spinoff (which we discussed in Part 1).
“We’ve just been focusing on this show and giving it everything that it deserves going out in its final season,” Osment says. “We can only really focus on this right now because that’s what’s in front of us, and we’re really excited to get going on something new.”
Jordan, who’s been with the prequel since its 2017 premiere, also takes a moment to reflect on what it’ll be like to say goodbye to TV siblings Iain Armitage and Raegan Revord — aka Sheldon and Missy. “These past seven years, we’ve become real siblings in real life,” he says. “It’s the siblings I’ve always wanted.”
Young Sheldon Season 7 resumes Thursday, April 4 at 8/7c on CBS (and streams next day on Paramount+). In the meantime, watch Part 2 of our interview with Montana Jordan and Emily Osment above, then hit the comments with your reactions.
Can’t wait for the wedding!
It would’ve worked out having everyone (but George and Sheldon of course) return in the spin-off. Sheldon could “visit” from college occasionally and we could’ve kept the family we have grown to love
I would like it if half the episode for this season was on withing a year from the ending of young sheldon so it feel like young sheldon finish a whole season. I do like that young sheldon it actually 14 at the start of these half a year season. And by making it a half season sheldon 14 and 3 months when the show end. And we know gorge pass away when he 14 but don’t say when at 14 he can pass when he about to trun 15 and they would nit have to show it.
