'Two and a Half Men' Season 12 Premiere and Cast: Will Charlie Sheen Return in the Last Season?
There may be hope for Charlie Sheen to make a comeback when "Two and a Half Men" returns to CBS for its 12th and last season next month.
Sheen says he has reached out the producers behind the long running comedy series about resurrecting his character Charlie Harper for a special guest appearance,
Harper was killed off the popular sitcom back in 2011 after Sheen was fired for publicly bashing "Two and a Half Men" executive producer Chuck Lorre before suing him, the network and Warner Brother, the studio behind the show.
However, in spite of the bad blood between Sheen and Lorre, the "Anger Management" actor told E! News that he is "100 percent" interested in being featured on the show.
According to TV Guide, the actor had reached out to "Two and a Half Men" about reprising his role in the final season of the series.
"I've reached out to them and they've reached back," he said, adding. "We're trying to figure out what makes the most sense."
However, inside sources told E! News that Charlie's statement is false.
"Charlie has not had any conversations with the 'Two and a Half Men' producers regarding a return. There has been no back and forth."
Still, he went on to express his hope to return to the show.
"I just want to do it classy," Sheen told E!. "I want to do it in a way that still services what the show is today, and also honors what it was when I was there. Who knows? I'm sure they are over there right now, pen to paper, trying to figure something out. If it's not done properly, then there is no reason to do it. But it's a pretty smart group over there and I'm sure they will figure something. Something that makes sense to everyone."
When asked about the possibility of Sheen coming back last month, Lorre said "we haven't discussed that, really. We've been really focused on finding a storyline that puts Jon and Ashton front and center in a really interesting, provocative, hopefully funny story. That was our priority going into this year, was to do a storyline that puts these two guys right in the middle of it. So outside characters will come in as they do, but that's not the focus."
Likewise, when asked if Sheen will return for Season 12, CBS Entertainment President Nina Tassler, gave ABC News a simple answer.
"Not at this time, no," she said during the Television Critics Association summer press tour in Beverly Hills over the summer.
