[post_page_title]Jim Parsons in real life[/post_page_title]
Like many stars on The Big Bang Theory, Jim’s career began to skyrocket after he landed the role as Sheldon. This actor has picked up an Emmy and a Golden Globe award for his incredible acting, but that isn’t all Jim has managed to land.
The actor has become a beloved face in Hollywood, especially after he was cast to voice Oh, the adorable purple alien misfit that starred in the movie Home. He also showed a more serious side, although with striking similarities to Sheldon, as he played an astrophysicist at NASA for the Oscar-nominated movie, Hidden Figures. At 44 years old, Jim Parsons nearly tops the list of highest earning actors on TV as he earns $900,000 for each episode of TBBT.
