Critics Confirm Charlie Sheenâs Return To Two and A Half Men
During an interview with Ellen DeGeneres last Friday, Ashton Kutcher didnât have to say anything to prove that Two and a Half Men producer Chuck Lorre plans on rehiring Charlie Sheen to the cast of the show. Rumors have swirled around the internet for months, and there is now finally confirmation of Sheenâs long awaited return to the show. Sheen was firedÂ from Two and a Half Men in 2011, after making controversial public rants against ProducerÂ Lorre. He eventually sued CBS, the Warner Bros Studio, and Lorre himself for his dismissal from the show. His character, Charlie Harper, was presumed dead in the storyline, as Lorre had to devise a quick way to write the character out; though fans never really saw proof of the characterâs demise. He has told TV Guide that he is up for returning to theÂ long-running series, and other sources say heâs admitted that he actually is returning. Jon Cryer, who portrays Sheenâs younger brother Alan Harper in the show, reportedly expressed much excitement about Sheenâs return, stating he âliterally cannot waitâ to âreunite with Sheenâ and âbegin filming the final episodeâ. Critics report that Lorre plans on reintroducing Sheen into the cast for the final episode of the series, further confirming Cryerâs allegations. Rumor states that the production team has decided that the characterâs death never occurred; that he was only presumed to be dead by the other characters, yet has been alive the throughout the past three years. While it sounds a bit like how a soap opera would play out, CBS spokesperson Ameera Lindley says the strategy âmakes senseâ, as it is incredibly difficult to bring people back from the dead on television. While AMCâs The Walking Dead did itÂ with the character of Beth Greene, itâs a bit more difficult to pull off within a half hour prime-time family show. The facts are, that fans never saw anything that proved the death of Charlie Harper. The only thingÂ that hinted at the characterâs deathÂ within the show was a mock-funeral, and some ill-fated dialogue to remind us that he once existed. Producers have poorly attempted to bring back the memory of Charlie by writing his supposed-daughter into the cast, however, fans have seen it as a major fail. National Report Staff attempted to reach out to Sheen personally for comment; his response? âWinning!â Two and a Half Men fans may just have to be patient, and await what Charlie Sheen does next. According to our sources, the wait wonât be long.
