Quebec pranksters offer Charlie Sheen movie role

By Alexandra Heilbron on April 3, 2012 | 5 Comments


Montreal radio personality Marc-Antoine Audette, half of the notorious comedy duo known as the “Justiciers Masques” (Masked Avengers), called Charlie Sheen on the phone to offer him a role in the sequel to the Oscar-winning film, The Artist. Taking on a heavy French accent, he impersonated Jean DuJardin, the star of the movie. Sheen congratulated “Jean” on his award, saying, “It was nice to see someone so genuinely excited.” Audette responded, “Of course, I was very excited, but I was thinking about you when winning. Winning, winning winning!” He goes on to tell Charlie he’d like to direct the sequel himself, adding, “But in ‘The Artist 2,’ the Artist is winning.” Charlie agrees, saying, “I’d read the phone book with you.” Audette goes on to call Charlie a “f***ing great actor. You did all those great movies — Platoon, Wall Street, Scary Movie 4, really, that was really great.” Charlie replies, “Oh, please! Thank you for considering me! That’s very sweet. It’s not every day that the guy who’s [the] Best Actor Oscar [winner] reaches out to you. That’s pretty cool.” Listen to audio from the show below. ~Kayla Thompson

    Way cool! Sheen is a tool if he thought an Oscar-winning actor wanted to work with him. Or would even give him a call. Stupid.

    Noone would call him after what he pulled last year. Especially not Jean. Heck, I dont even think a RAZZIE winning actor with an once of class would ask to work with him. Sheen’s a tool and I bet that his new show wont do well.
