it is actually crazy that like 88% of more recent celebrity relationships start from sliding into DMs

Jim Parsons is opening up about how "beautiful" it was to reprise his Big Bang Theory role as adult Sheldon Cooper for the Young Sheldon series finale.

While speaking with ET's Rachel Smith about his Broadway project, Mother Play, Parsons shared that, yes, he has already taped his part for the Young Sheldon series finale. He's reprising his role alongside Mayim Bialik's Amy Farrah Fowler. Parsons said going back to a familiar role went so much better than he expected.

"It was beautiful. It was even more beautiful than I expected it to be. One of the reasons I was excited to do it is because what they wrote is so sweet and I think they worked Mayim and I into that show so beautifully," Parsons tells ET. "I hope everyone agrees. But also for us the way that they tape -- because they're a single-camera show and we're multi-camera -- the whole look of the show was a really special experience. To get to go with Mayim, in a world we're really guests and revisit these characters a little older, just a completely different circumstance."

When they reprise their roles on Young Sheldon on what will likely be a flash-forward scene, it'll be the first time Parsons and Bialik reprise their roles and appear on-screen together since The Big Bang Theory ended in May 2019. Parsons said that since leaving the show, everything's been like "one big wash of a memory, but to go back" it felt different.

"We're older and we haven't seen these people," he says. "It just felt different, but it felt really, really sweet."

"Well, yes and no. We finished our first read-through, we didn't tape it. We just went in and felt around the set, and Mayim nailed it when she walked back and said, 'Uh, I thought I'd feel a lot more confident than this.' I said, 'Me, too,'" Parsons admitted. "I really thought it'd be like putting on a pair of old shoes and then eventually it was, but not for about an hour or so. And I was like, 'Do I still know how to talk like this?' It was weird."

When Young Sheldon comes to a close with the season 7 finale in April, fans can expect the Big Bang Theory universe to expand once again, as it's been reported that CBS ordered a Young Sheldon spinoff series centered around George and Mandy raising their family in Texas. Chuck Lorre, Steven Molaro and Steve Holland are the creators. The trio's also the brains behind The Big Bang Theory and Young Sheldon.

"I really think it goes back to the writers," said Parsons, explaining what makes the shows successful. "They have continuously created such characters that people connect to, that people enjoy watching. It was always the key to our show, that I thought it was a group of people that who each individually were such well-defined deep characters. And it's the same with Young Sheldon and now they've got two more to go with. It's crazy."

In the meantime, fans can catch Parsons star opposite Jessica Lange and Celia Keenan-Bolger in Mother Play, a Broadway feature from Pulitzer Prize winner Paula Vogel. The 1-hour, 30-minute play (no intermission) is directed by Tina Landau, and the play centers around Parsons, Lange and Keenan-Bolger sharing the stage as a dysfunctional but moving family. 

Mother Play begins preview performances on Broadway on April 2.

Sunday Morning Session

Sweet is the Work

Conducting: Dallin H. Oaks

Go Forth with Faith

I’m Trying to Be Like Jesus

President M. Russell Ballard, Q of 12

Joseph Smith and the first vision

We are blessed by Joseph’s ministry

We have the knowledge that Jesus is the Christ because Joseph was worthy to get the plates

It is important to ensure your children know you believe them – and believe in them

Be a little better, a little kinder, a little more prepared.

He’s our Savior and Redeemer, our best friend

President Emily Belle Freeman, YW President

The Jesus Trail

The five finger promise

He doesn’t ask us to face challenges alone. He will invite us to walk with Him

He has promised to walk with us in the way

Jesus will meet us where we are, as we are

His is a mission of condescension – He will meet us where we are as we are

Staying where we are won’t bring us the deliverance we seek

It’s the covenant relationship that saves us

Just like a marriage, the wedding date is important but ultimately it’s what comes after

What relationship do you want to have with Him?

If you want to live in a continuous covenant relationship with him

Your place or placement on the path is not as important as progress

It’s not the course alone that will save us, it’s the companion our Savior

Adilson de Paula Parrella, 70

Witness through actions and words that Jesus is the Christ

Take upon you the name of Christ

Spain – attending a small church meeting

Brazil story

Everything in church (talks, testimonies, etc) should be about and focused on Jesus

Elder Quintin L. Cook, Q of 12

This is the time to prepare to meet God

Be the peacemakers

Have a peaceable walk among the children of men

Be peaceable followers of Jesus Christ

Which act of the play am I stuck in?

There are three acts to the play (in the plan of happiness), which act are we going to participate in?

If you come in to the performance in the third act of the play you will lack the context of what happened prior

Praise the Lord with singing, music and dancing

If you are sorrowful, call on the Lord with supplication that your souls may be joyful

Being joyful and relying on Heavenly help through prayer is a great way to be peaceable

Earth has no sorrow that heaven cannot heal – Hymn Come, Ye Disconsolate

Come Ye Children of the Lord

Elder Dieter F. Uchtdorf, Q of 12

The Greatest Short Story ever told

The prodigal son Luke 15:11-32

#livingmybestlife

He will help you and shelter you no matter what has happened

Even after you squander your entire inheritance

“It wasn’t just an empty stomach that bothered him, it was an empty soul”

Even when you feel no longer worthy, and decide that you must be only worthy for the lowliest roll in the Fathers house, He instead celebrates that His child has returned home

He will unconditionally allow us to return for forgiveness and mercy

It is always possible to go back and become renewed

It is never better to stay lost – Heaven will rejoice at our return

Some of us may wonder if its even possible to go back, if its better just to stay lost. But Heavenly father will run to us!! And embrace us!!

“It is not possible for you to sink lower than the light of Jesus Christ’s atoning sacrifice shines” - Elder Holland

The Master Healer stands at the road that leads home, welcoming you

Your return will not diminish the blessings of others

Coming back is not an easy thing to do. It may be the toughest choice we make. But Christs power will enter our lives and transform it.

Together we will rejoice – for Jesus Christ is our Strength.

Hear the Father’s voice beckoning us to follow the road that leads home.

W. Christopher Waddell, 1st counselor Bishopric

Ephraim’s rescue

Bring as many people as you can safely home

Hero worship can be taken too far – you can look beyond the mark and lose what is essential – Jesus Christ

Jesus Christ has done everything that is essential for our journey through mortality toward the destiny outlined in the plan of our Heavenly Father. -Dallin H. Oaks

We need to be careful in choosing our hero, so that our hero worship does not become our golden calf

If you have not chosen the Kingdom of God first, then you need to consider carefully what choices you have chosen

Any choice other than choosing the kingdom of God will fail us

Turn to Him, follow Him, choose Him.

It is by choosing Him, the King of Kings, that we choose the kingdom of God.

Hark All Ye Nations

President Henry B. Eyring, 2nd counselor 1st Presidency

Pray and heed promptings to gain inspiration and blessings

Think and pray about Helaman’s sons Nephi and Lehi

Helaman 11:23 (whole chapter tho)

We need the constant companionship of the Holy Ghost – we desire it, but we know that it sometimes isn’t easy to achieve

Remember the sacrament promise

We can be guided by the spirit minute by minute

Purity brings power

Don’t give in to fear, He is there. Repent

Don’t succumb to the fear that God has abandoned us or does not hear us.

Of all the things the Holy Ghost testifies of, the most precious for us is that Jesus is the Christ, the Living Son of God.

Your experiences will be unique and the spirt will guide in the way best suited to you and your experiences

He loves you and He hears your every prayer

The Holy Ghost is sent to faithful members of the Church of Jesus Christ

Your relationship with the Holy Ghost is unique to you

Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing

Alex R. Hibbert and Mahershala Ali in Moonlight (Barry Jenkins, 2016) Cast: Trevante Rhodes, Ashton Sanders, Alex R. Hibbert, André Holland, Jharrel Jerome, Jaden Piner, Naomie Harris, Janell Monáe, Mahershala Ali, Patrick Decile. Screenplay: Barry Jenkins, based on a play by Tarell Alvin McCraney. Cinematography: James Laxton. Production design: Hannah Beachler. Film editing: Joi McMillon, Nat Sanders. Music: Nicholas Britell. Coming-of-age films are the cinematic equivalent of the Bildungsroman, the usually semi-autographical "novel of education" that tracks the formative childhood and adolescent experiences of the protagonist. Dickens, for example, wrote not one but two Bildungsromane: David Copperfield and Great Expectations. In the movies, the classic coming-of-age films include Satyajit Ray's Apu Trilogy (Pather Panchali, 1955; Aparajito, 1956; The World of Apu, 1959) and François Truffaut's The 400 Blows* (2017). Lately, Richard Linklater has added a distinguished entry to the genre, Boyhood (2014). And now Barry Jenkins adds to the genre with Moonlight, a fine film about growing up black and gay, while deftly avoiding the double pitfall of making his film about being black or gay. There have been plenty of films about growing up black and about growing up gay  and much commentary about possessing the dual stigma in a straight and/or white society. But what sets Jenkins's film apart is its avoidance of pop psychology and trite sociology: Moonlight is about being human. You don't need to have grown up in India or France to understand and sympathize with Apu or Antoine, and you don't need to have grown up in the Miami housing projects to sense why Chiron (rhymes with "Tyrone," but with a spelling that suggests the mythical centaur) is so blocked, so stubborn, so silent. Jenkins and Tarell Alvin McCraney, who wrote the play Jenkins adapted for the film, step carefully around the clichés of the genre, especially when it comes to ascribing blame. Juan (Mahershala Ali), the drug runner who finds the young Chiron (Alex R. Hibbert) hiding from bullies in an abandoned crack house and shows him kindness, isn't entirely the heroic figure he might be. Juan becomes the fatherless Chiron's first adult male role model, but he's a poor one even though he's generous and understanding, since Chiron grows up to follow Juan's profession and even imitate some of his showy mannerisms. Paula (Naomie Harris) is a terrible mother, but she doesn't want to be: It's the drugs that Juan sells her that send her skidding off the track she desperately wants to be on. Kevin (Jharrel Jerome), Chiron's first (and apparently only) sort-of boyfriend, isn't strong enough to stand up to the taunts of the bully Terrel (Patrick Decile), so he betrays the teenage Chiron (Ashton Sanders), provoking him to violence. So the film ends on an ambivalent note with the reunion of the adult Chiron (Trevante Rhodes) and Kevin (André Holland). Are they strong enough now to provide support to each other, or are their lives going to be haunted by the damaged child that was Chiron, seen in the film's final shot? There is something a little too formulaic about that ending, I think. I'm not entirely convinced, for example, that the handsome, bulked-up, successful drug runner that is the adult Chiron would have remained celibate for so long. But Jenkins has risked much and mostly succeeded -- after all, there's that Oscar -- in crafting a film that doesn't play the blame game or rely on pat explanations and outcomes. *I'm not including the other four Antoine Doinel films by Truffaut because, like many others, I don't sense a real continuity of character between the Antoine of The 400 Blows and the Antoine of the sequels.

“A Cielo Abierto”

Crédito foto: Ana Paula Álvarez

Protagonizada por los jóvenes actores Federica García, Máximo Hollander y Theo Goldin,  acompañados por Julio César Cedillo, Sergio Mayer Mori, Cecilia Suárez, Manolo Cardona y Julio Bracho, “A Cielo Abierto” cuenta la historia de dos hermanos adolescentes que junto a su hermanastra emprenden un viaje de carretera hasta la frontera entre México y Estados Unidos para dar con el responsable del accidente que causó la muerte de su padre.

Dirigida por Mariana Arriaga y Santiago Arriaga, “A Cielo Abierto” fue escrita por Guillermo Arriaga, autor de “Los Tres Entierros de Melquíades Estrada” ( Mejor Guión en el Festival de Cannes) “Amores Perros”, “21 gramos” y “Babel” (Nominada al Oscar al Mejor Guión).  

La película se rodó en el estado de Coahuila, en las ciudades de Saltillo y Piedras Negras y en la Ciudad de México. Se trata de la primera producción de K&S Films México.  

La distribución en México estará a cargo de Cinépolis Distribución. "A Cielo Abierto" es un guión escrito por nuestro padre en los años noventa. Cuando éramos niños, nos embarcamos junto a él en innumerables viajes de caza, atravesando los agrestes paisajes del norte de México, al igual que el personaje central de nuestra historia. Estos viajes encendieron nuestra imaginación, evocando vívidas imágenes de los escenarios, los personajes y la odisea que les esperaba. En "A Cielo Abierto" aspirábamos a crear una exploración sobre las profundas consecuencias que se derivan del dolor y la pérdida.  Nos obligó a reflexionar sobre las decisiones que tomamos cuando nos enfrentamos a un dolor indescriptible y cómo esas decisiones conforman nuestros caminos hacia la redención. Para nosotros, así como para todo el equipo que realizó esta película, es un honor ser considerados en la Competencia Orizzonti del Festival de Cine de Venecia. Estamos feliz de encontrarnos con el público, jurado, colegas seleccionados, prensa y, sobre todo, los organizadores de este festival cuyo trabajo tanto admiramos. Mariana Arriaga & Santiago Arriaga     Esta película busca responder una pregunta fundamental, ¿se debe vengar la muerte de un ser querido? ¿se justifica tratar de cobrar una revancha aún cuando la muerte haya sido producto de un accidente? La historia de “A Cielo Abierto”, intenta contar los vaivenes de los descubrimientos más poderosos en un trío de adolescentes: la muerte, el encuentro, la sexualidad, la complicidad, la intimidad, el amor. A través de un viaje por carretera, estos jóvenes pertenecientes a la clase media alta mexicana, topan con la violencia, con la ternura, con un paisaje salvaje e inclemente, con los instintos, con los animales, con la ferocidad.

250(ish) Favorite Arrowverse Episodes: Part 6: 125-101

Picked from „Arrow“, „Black Lightning“, „Supergirl“, „Legends of Tomorrow“, „The Flash“, „Barwoman“ Season 1+2 and „Superman & Lois“ Season 1+2. I did consider kicking „Superman & Lois“ of this list, but since it pretended to be part of the Arrowverse for its first two seasons I left it on here.

6, Written by: Katie Aldrin, Directed by: Sudz Sutherland

 " When I first showed up in Metropolis as Superman, there was a lot of talk about what the world should do with someone who had powers like mine. And it took me a minute to realize that other people were more afraid of what I could do than I was. So what I had to do, more than anything, was earn their trust, prove to them that, no matter what, I would never use my powers to hurt them. 20 years later, every time I use my powers, that trust is tested, every time. Just today, in fact. The thing about trust, Jordan... Once you break it, it's take a lot longer to heal than a wrist."

But I will say, as far Channing Tatum goes, he also took his performance of Beyonce's Run the World, he DEFINTELY took it seriously. He also had his start as a dancer, took the choreography seriously, and Queen B herself made an appearance. And both he and Jenna Dewan (his at the time wife) both fangirled over both Beyonce and Paula Abdul in the episode. He took Let It Go less seriously, but he was also kind of channeling how he plays with his daughter (he's also written a series of children's books inspired by her imagination)

I think what is most charming about the Tom Holland Umbrella performance is the fake out of Singin in the Rain at the beginning. Not only because he reveals a kind of drag performance, but the juxtaposition of the two songs; one standard one pop, one male one female, one dressed in classic Hollywood one modern RB.

Coming-of-age films are the cinematic equivalent of the Bildungsroman, the usually semi-autographical "novel of education" that tracks the formative childhood and adolescent experiences of the protagonist. Dickens, for example, wrote not one but two Bildungsromane: David Copperfield and Great Expectations. In the movies, the classic coming-of-age films include Satyajit Ray's Apu Trilogy (Pather Panchali, 1955; Aparajito, 1956; The World of Apu, 1959) and François Truffaut's The 400 Blows (1959). Lately, there have been two distinguished additions to the genre: Richard Linklater's Boyhood (2014) and Barry Jenkins's Moonlight, the latter a fine film about growing up Black and gay, while deftly avoiding the double pitfall of making his film about being Black or gay. What sets Jenkins's film apart is its avoidance of pop psychology and trite sociology: Moonlight is about being human. You don't need to have grown up in India or France to understand and sympathize with Apu or Antoine, and you don't need to have grown up in the Miami housing projects to sense why Chiron (rhymes with "Tyrone," but with a spelling that suggests the mythical centaur) is so blocked, so stubborn, so silent. Jenkins and Tarell Alvin McCraney, who wrote the play Jenkins adapted for the film, step carefully around the clichés of the genre, especially when it comes to ascribing blame. Juan (Mahershala Ali), the drug runner who finds the young Chiron (Alex R. Hibbert) hiding from bullies in an abandoned crack house and shows him kindness, isn't entirely the heroic figure he might be. Juan becomes the fatherless Chiron's first adult male role model, but he's a poor one even though he's generous and understanding, since Chiron grows up to follow Juan's profession and even imitate some of his showy mannerisms. Paula (Naomie Harris) is a terrible mother, but she doesn't want to be: It's the drugs that Juan sells her that send her skidding off the track she desperately wants to be on. Kevin (Jharrel Jerome), Chiron's first (and apparently only) sort-of boyfriend, isn't strong enough to stand up to the taunts of the bully Terrel (Patrick Decile), so he betrays the teenage Chiron (Ashton Sanders), provoking him to violence. So the film ends on an ambivalent note with the reunion of the adult Chiron (André Holland) and Kevin (Trevante Rhodes). Are they strong enough now to provide support to each other, or are their lives going to be haunted by the damaged child that was Chiron, seen in the film's final shot? There is something a little too formulaic about that ending, I think. I'm not entirely convinced, for example, that the handsome, bulked-up, successful drug runner that is the adult Chiron would have remained celibate for so long. But Jenkins has risked much and mostly succeeded -- after all, there's that Oscar -- in crafting a film that doesn't play the blame game or rely on pat explanations and outcomes.
