"I would love to be an author one day": 'Young Sheldon's Missy aka Raegan Revord gets candid about her future plans

In talks with Meaww, Revord dishes some candid details about her life on the sets of 'Young Sheldon', the nail-biting moments before she landed the role of Missy, and her ambitious plans for the future.

Following the massive success of CBS' 'The Big Bang Theory', creators Chuck Lorre and Steven Molaro took fans back in time, recreating the entire childhood of Sheldon Cooper in last season's hit 'Young Sheldon'.  

With Jim Parsons serving as the narrator, the series - as the name suggests - centers on the younger days of Sheldon, his polar opposite parents, and his eccentric bunch of siblings and friends. While the limelight is certainly on young Sheldon (starring Iain Armitage), a great part of the credit for making the series so relatable to viewers of every age also goes to Armitage's young and talented co-star, Raegan Revord.

Starring as Missy Cooper, 10-year-old Revord not only adds a much-needed spunk to the plot but also serves as the perfect foil to her academically-gifted twin brother, Sheldon. And all this while navigating through life in the deeply religious Texas community of the 1990s.
