Actor, Charlie Sheen, 46, may have shocked his fans with his crude and erratic behaviour last year, but the actor has immersed himself into a ‘winning’ lifestyle and finally returns back to TV, with what he describes as his ‘swan song’, with a new show called Anger Management.
FX network has launched the new TV series based on the Adam Sandler-Jack Nicholson movie with the same name, starring Sheen alongside Selma Blair, as a baseball player-turned-unconventional anger therapist, who changed gigs after a self-inflicted injury forced him out of the game.
While Sheen, pictured right, is planning his retirement, he insists that he ‘doesn’t believe’ in getting older and does not want to ‘extinguish’ the seven-year-old child he feels at heart. This is the first time Sheen has acted since being axed from CBS’s Two and a Half Men because of his wild partying and unpredictable behaviour.
“When I’m done with this business it’s just going to be about soccer games and amusement parks,” said Sheen when asked about what comes after the show. “And when this ends, I’m done. This is my swan song.”
FX announced that if the first 10 episodes receive high ratings and proves to be successful, that 90 more episodes will be produced over the next two years. The show aired in the US last week.
