Charlie Sheen is staying with Star World sitcom Two and a Half Men for another two seasons
Charlie Sheen is staying with Star World sitcom Two and a Half Men for another two seasons. The 44 year-old had threatened to leave the show amid reports that he was demanding up to $1m per episode. The actor is also facing trial in July over domestic violence charges. The charges stem from an alleged altercation with his wife, Brooke Mueller Sheen, on Christmas Day 2009.
At the time, she told police, Sheen had put a knife to her throat and threatened to kill her. In the TV show, Sheen plays a bachelor whose brother and nephew move into his flat after a divorce. His future in it was thrown into doubt some months ago after he indicated he wanted to spend more time making films. He also said the production demands of the show had become too great after seven years in the role of bachelor Charlie Harper.
Interestingly, the actor subsequently denied allegations of last minute wage demands.
Watch Two and a Half Men today at 2 pm, Saturday at 12.30 pm and Thursday at 2 pm and 7.30 pm
