史都華升格當主角！HBO Max預訂推出《宅男行不行》衍生劇
HBO Max 宣布預訂《宅男行不行》衍生劇《Stuart Fails to Save the Universe》，由Chuck Lorre Productions與Warner Bros. Television聯合製作。
這部喜劇影集由艾美獎®提名的創作者查克洛爾（Chuck Lorre）、塞克潘（Zak Penn）和比爾普拉迪（Bill Prady） 擔任監製。
漫畫店老闆史都華（Stuart Bloom） 被迫肩負起拯救現實世界的任務，因為他不小心弄壞了謝爾頓（Sheldon） 和李奧納德（Leonard）發明的裝置，意外引發多重宇宙的末日危機（Armageddon）。
在這場旅程中，他獲得女友 Denise、地質學家好友 Bert，以及量子物理學家 Barry Kripke 的協助。過程中，他們將遇到我們所熟知並喜愛的《宅男行不行》角色的平行宇宙版本。正如劇名所暗示的，事情並不會太順利。
本劇由凱文蘇斯曼（Kevin Sussman，飾演 Stuart）、勞倫拉布庫斯（Lauren Lapkus，飾演 Denise）、Brian Posehn（飾演 Bert）與John Ross Bowie（飾演 Barry）領銜主演。
本劇由Chuck Lorre Productions與Warner Bros. Television聯合製作，並由查克洛爾（Chuck Lorre）、塞克潘（Zak Penn）和比爾普拉迪（Bill Prady） 擔任監製。
HBO 和 HBO Max 內容董事長兼執行長Casey Bloys 表示：「We’re excited to be continuing the legacy of The Big Bang Theory. Much like the original series, this new chapter wouldn’t be possible without the vision and storytelling brilliance of Chuck Lorre and Bill Prady, as well as Zak Penn, who has brought fresh insight and a distinctive voice to an already exceptional creative team.」
監製查克洛爾表示：「I wanted to do something radical that would take me out of my comfort zone. Something the characters on The Big Bang Theory, would have loved, hated, and argued about.」
監製塞克潘表示：「I was on a vision quest in the most remote parts of the Amazon Rainforest when a carrier pigeon arrived with a note from Chuck Lorre asking if I wanted to help make a show that the characters from The Big Bang Theory would watch. I couldn’t resist that idea, so I packed up my yurt and hailed the next dirigible out. At the same time, Chuck sent an expedition to locate Bill Prady, who had been frozen with his shield across his chest in a block of arctic ice. The team assembled, we set out to make this insane show, which lives in a universe created by Chuck and Bill. I couldn’t be more honored to be working with these amazing people.」
監製比爾普拉迪表示：「The process of writing this show with Chuck and Zak has been damn fun, and I’m certain that joy will come through the screen. Putting characters we loved from The Big Bang Theory into a complex science fiction story with the kind of mythology that those characters love while maintaining the comedic elements is incredibly satisfying.」
Warner Bros. Television與WBD U.S. Networks董事長兼執行長 Channing Dungey 表示：「Chuck and Bill have given us one of the most enduring comedies of our time with The Big Bang Theory, and we can’t wait to see the universe continue with this new series. With the help of Zak — a masterful storyteller — this next iteration promises to capture the essence of what fans loved about the original series, but with a completely fresh twist. We thank our partners HBO Max for joining us on this next adventure.」
