LOS ANGELES — The former “Two and a Half Men” star Charlie Sheen said he is “honored” by his TV character’s gruesome demise in a horrific train crash.
“I am honored that it took something as large and violent as an oncoming train to terminate my character,” he told TMZ. “Anything less would have been an insult!”
Sheen — who played Charlie Harper in the show — was fired from the sitcom in March after a high-profile fall out with the show’s creator Chuck Lorre and network executives CBS Entertainment president Nina Tassler disclosed last week that Ashton Kutcher, 33, will take over the gap left by Sheen’s character.
The former “That ’70s Show” star will play Walden Schmidt, an “internet billionaire with a broken heart” who, unlike Sheen’s Harper, shares no family relation to the other characters.
