Charlie Sheen Settlement with Warner Bros. North of $100 Million

[Arnold]

Charlie Sheen will immediately get $25 million in his settlement with Warner Bros. in his "Two and a Half Men" dispute -- but over time he'll get 5 times that amount ... TMZ has learned.

Sources connected with the settlement tell TMZ ... Charlie will get the $25 mil in about two weeks and, as we reported, the sum represents the monies owed him for the work he already performed on the series and the profits that have already accrued.

But Charlie has shot around 180 episodes for the show, and in the next 7 - 10 years, the settlement will produce $100 million for the actor in syndication profits.

Not bad when you don't have to show up for work.

I never watched the old one (or the new) but what u said I have heard the same from others.

Just got done watching the Charlie Sheene roast. It was more like the Mike Tyson Roast. This roast wasn't all that great.

 

[MDR]

Good for him. Hope he is able to clean up his act and live long enough to spend some of it on something other than drugs and whores.

 

[SFW]

this!!!

You can bang a lot of 7 gram rocks with $100 million.

What else is there?

 

[IronAddict]

Winning?

Sounds like the mutha phuqa won to me.

 

[Big Pimpin]

He could buy a Colombian cartel for $100mil.

[meow]

With that much money, maybe he'll be able to afford a full tiger's blood transfusion

 

[BillHicksFan]

I'd say that drugs and whores are on his bucket list.

 

[FUZO]

GO charlie

 

[bigdtrain]

I bet Chuck Lorre is feeling like a real douche right now and Warner Bros probably really hates his ass knowing how much they have to pay Sheen.

Someone needs to being me up to speed on the details of this.

Charlie goes on a bender, talking shit about his coworkers and employers, and the employers have to pay him?

How did it work out that way?

They're going to pull in a lot of money from reruns and Charlie gets his cut from it.

Go Charlie! I fucking love it, a bunch of network business assholes under appreciating the obvious talent of the show get burned big time.

I don't watch television, but if I am visiting friends or family and the show is on, I'll watch it just because it has Charlie in it.

Oh, okay, that makes sense. It was money that he's entitled to, anyway.

Then how do you know the network heads were underappreciating the talent???

From the outside looking in, it looked to me like Sheen went off the deep end and was badmouthing the network, the show's producers and his own co-workers. If that truely was the case, I think he's the one who should have gotten burned. Sure, give him the $$$ he's earned but, I certainly wouldn't be cheering him as some sort of working class hero.

I know very easily from making a few basic observations:

1. Charlie Sheen is the shit, and I have enjoyed almost everything he has ever been part of.
2. No one else on that show has a quarter of Sheen's talent or charisma.
3. The producers were fucking lucky to ever get Sheen in the first place.
4. Chuck Lorre is a faggot who writes lame ass sitcoms for lame ass people, and only someone of Sheen's caliber could have made the stupid show a hit.

I kept up with Sheen during his meltdown. I understand where he was coming from. He knew he was the cause of the show's success, and he felt like a piece of shit for lowing himself to doing stupid prime time sitcoms like two and a half men. So, he felt that if he was going to lower himself to that, he damn well better be appreciated for it. I can't say I blame him.

Like I said, I would watch the show because he was on it, but it always pained me at the same time to see someone fall from being the funny edgy guy to doing a show so fucking lame as two and a half men.


Also, I am not cheering him on as a working class hero. The guy is a spoiled rich kid who was born and bred to be a successful actor and never have to really work, need, or even want. No, I like Sheen for completely different reasons that I explained in the melt down thread a few months back.

he won''

I really liked him in The Chase.

Jon Cryer is great on that show. The others actors are also topnotch. Charlie couldn't carry that show on his own. The truth is that we're going to find out now.

Charlie's career was on the flag.

Chuck Lorre has created many good, and successful, TV shows. Not to mention that he wrote the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles theme.

Jon Cryer has been in only one movie that I even remember, and I don't even remember the name of it. He went back to high school in his 30s to avoid mafia hitmen or some other ludicrous plot.

Charlie's career was on the flag. I can't dispute that, but that is also the only reason he lowered himself to doing that gay ass show.

Everything Chuck Lorre ever did blowed goats. Just because his shows got viewers does not mean he produces anything good. Whoever produces the latest and greatest reality TV show will get shit piles of viewers, but I still consider them Satin's helper and smoker of poles.
