Two and a Half Men to return without Charlie Sheen

Chuck Lorre has decided that Two and a Half Men will return with Jon Cryer as one of the stars, but without Charlie Sheen, who was fired from the show last month. Instead, a new, yet-to-be cast character will be introduced, according to The Hollywood Reporter. Although Sheen has expressed interest in returning to the show, despite his $100 million lawsuit against the producers, Warner Bros. is adament that he won’t be invited back. Sources to the magazine say a midseason relaunch is more likely than a fall return, which will give the network and studio more time to retool the series. Cast member Angus T. Jones, 17, was not mentioned, but it’s assumed he’ll be returning for the ninth season.
