“The Big Bang Theory” Leaves It’s Mark on Hollywood

Published

On the heels of Warner Bros. Television’s blockbuster comedy The Big Bang Theory filming the final episode of its remarkable 12-season, 279-episode run last night, series stars Johnny Galecki, Jim Parsons, Kaley Cuoco, Simon Helberg, Kunal Nayyar, Mayim Bialik and Melissa Rauch received one of the most prestigious honors in entertainment when they left their handprints in cement at the TCL Chinese Theatre IMAX in Hollywood today, Wednesday, May 1, 2019.

The Big Bang Theory is the first television series in history to be honored with the ceremony. The show will sign off as the longest-running multi-camera series in television history with a one-hour series finale Thursday, May 16, 2019, at 8/7c on CBS.

The Big Bang Theory executive producer and co-creator Chuck Lorre, who was a featured speaker at the event, said: “Having just wrapped the final episode the night before, we’re on a bit of an emotional roller-coaster. But we can definitely count this iconic handprint ceremony at the Chinese Theatre as one of the highs. We’d like to thank all of our viewers who’ve supported us over the last 12 years and made an unforgettable event like this possible.”

The TCL Chinese Theatre Handprints Ceremony is not only rich in tradition, but also provides the more than six million people who visit the site each year with an opportunity to touch Hollywood up close.

A year after movie entrepreneur Sid Grauman opened the Chinese Theatre in 1927, he launched the handprints ceremony. Recent hand/footprint honorees have included Jessica Chastain, Robert De Niro, directors Ridley Scott & Quentin Tarantino, plus Jennifer Lawrence, Melissa McCarthy, Sam Elliott, Ethan Hawke, Helen Mirren, Sandra Bullock, Ryan Gosling and more. Although Star Trek was honored for its 25th anniversary and its six feature film adaptations, The Big Bang Theory represents the first standalone television series in history to be honored with the ceremony.

The Big Bang Theory shot its final episode on Tuesday, April 30, which will air on Thursday, May 16, 2019 (Thursdays at 8/7c on CBS). Currently in its 12th season, The Big Bang Theory is produced by Chuck Lorre Productions, Inc., in association with Warner Bros. Television.

on

 in Hall H at San Diego Comic-Con, Rick Riordan and Disney+ revealed that Daniel Diemer (“Under the Bridge”) will star as fan-favorite cyclops “Tyson” in the epic adventure series “Percy Jackson and the Olympians.” Diemer joins Walker Scobell (Percy Jackson), Leah Sava Jeffries (Annabeth Chase) and Aryan Simhadri (Grover Underwood) as a series regular. The Disney+ Original series from Disney Branded Television and 20th Television will start filming its second season next week in Vancouver.

Season two of “Percy Jackson and the Olympians” is based on the second installment of Disney Hyperion’s best-selling book series titled “The Sea of Monsters” by award-winning author Rick Riordan. In the new season, Percy Jackson returns to Camp Half-Blood one year later to find his world turned upside down. His friendship with Annabeth is changing, he learns he has a cyclops for a brother, Grover has gone missing, and camp is under siege from the forces of Kronos. Percy’s journey to set things right will take him off the map and into the deadly Sea of Monsters, where a secret fate awaits the son of Poseidon.

Diemer stars as Tyson – a young Cyclops who grew up all alone on the streets, and finds it difficult to survive in the human world.  Shy and awkward, with a heart almost as big as he is, Tyson soon discovers that Poseidon is his father, which means Percy Jackson is his half-brother… and that Tyson may have finally found a home. 

Diemer recently starred in the Hulu limited series “Under the Bridge” based off the critically acclaimed book of the same name and a tragic true story of a missing teen girl in Vancouver in 1997. He will next star in the indie “Thug” opposite Liam Neeson and Ron Perlman for director Hans Petter Moland. Daniel was recently seen as the lead in the indie “Supercell” opposite Alec Baldwin and Skeet Ulrich and the lead in the film “Little Brother” opposite Phil Ettinger and JK Simmons. Daniel can also be seen in the Netflix series “The Midnight Club” and recently starred as the male lead in the breakout hit Netflix feature “The Half Of It” from producer Anthony Bregman and director Alice Wu. He is a graduate of Victoria Academy of Dramatic Arts in Vancouver.

Created by Rick Riordan and Jonathan E. Steinberg, season two of “Percy Jackson and the Olympians” is executive produced by Steinberg and Dan Shotz alongside Rick Riordan, Rebecca Riordan, Craig Silverstein, The Gotham Group’s Ellen Goldsmith-Vein, Bert Salke, The Gotham Group’s Jeremy Bell and D.J.
