Recently I wrote an article on Triond entitled "More Sheen, Less Shine" that commented on Charlie Sheens recent firing from "Two and a half Men" by Warner Brothers and CBS. I predicted that, as a result of Charlie's public response to the firing, there would be more sheen from Charlie and less shine from Warner Brothers and CBS. As it turns out, Charlie is suing his former employers for $100 million. Not only is Charlie suing his employers on his behalf, but also on the behalf of cast and crew members of the popular CBS sitcom. Sheen's suit claims that the actor has suffered intangible losses as a result of the firing. Sheen and his attorneys contend that showrunner, Chuck Lorre, deliberately orchestrated Sheen's downfall and that Chuck is using his leverage and power abusively. Lorre and his attorneys believe the suit is unfounded.
It would be interesting to know how much of an impact contracts between Sheen and Warner Brothers will have on the suit. In any event, we can definitely expect more sheen from Charlie Sheen.
