Charlie Sheen Offers Angus Jones Role On 'Anger Management'
Charlie Sheen has offered a former co-star a role on his new sitcom, “Anger Management.”
"My former nephew is welcome at the Goodson Anger Management home anytime," The Sun quoted Sheen as saying.
"Obviously, not having been there for some time, the Angus T. Jones that I knew and still love is not the same guy I saw on YouTube yesterday," he added.
Sheen went through a similar experience with “Two and a Half Men” bosses after he had public rants against the producers of the show in 2011 and was kicked off. He played the character of Jones’ uncle on the CBS sitcom.
When news first broke that Jones had trashed the the show on YouTube, Sheen told People magazine: "With Angus's Hale-Bopp-like meltdown, it is radically clear to me that the show is cursed."
The 19-year-old actor has been on the show since he was 10, but he publicly displayed how disgruntled he was with the show when he made a YouTube video calling “Two and a Half Men” “filth” and urged people not to watch the show.
He also said, "People say it's just entertainment. Do some research on the effects of television and your brain, and I promise you you'll have a decision to make when it comes to television especially with what you watch."
He has since apologized to his cast and crew through a public statement via his publicist, but according to sources who spoke to E! Online, Jones will “likely” leave the show after its current season.
Allegedly, the actor was slowly getting written off the show before his public rant went viral, and now reports are saying the character will probably choose to go to college.
Tune in to "Two and a Half Men" on Thursdays at 8:30/7:30c on CBS.
