X17 EXCLUSIVE - Charlie Sheen Meets With Studio Exec To Discuss Major League 3
Posted on Fri Mar 11th, 2011 1:59pm PDT By X17 Staff
Fresh off a police raid of his Sherman Oaks estate last night, Charlie Sheen was back to business this afternoon, meeting with Morgan Creek VP David Robinson regarding Sheen's pet project -- Major League 3, X17online can report exclusively. And of course he brought Goddess Natty Kenly along ...
Having been fired from his hit CBS show Two And a Half Men on Monday, the troubled actor is now creating his own gigs. He has appeared on a new live-streaming talk show Sheen's Korner on uStream, and is planning a live stage tour called the My Violent Torpedo of Truth/Defeat Is Not an Option Show.
But Sheen's true dream is a Major League trilogy. Problem is, Morgan Creek Prez (and David's dad) James, told reporters the other day that he wouldn't make a movie with Sheen in his current state:
- "Obviously with Major League 3 there’s a huge part written for Charlie’s character … but after dealing with Lindsay Lohan on Georgia Rule, I can speak for someone who has experienced the difficulties of working with an actor dealing with addiction.
I won’t go through that again. If Charlie doesn’t straighten up … I unfortunately can’t put him in the movie."
Well perhaps the father-son team are having seconds thoughts and Sheen went to plead his case. Good luck, Charlie! Winning!
UPDATE:
After the meeting, a rep for Morgan Creek tells X17online exclusively that not only is Charlie very interested in reprising his role, but the meeting went very well. "Charlie looked great, acted great, sounded great, and was very much on point. [James] said he never sounded better."
Is it possible that this whole fiasco hasn't ruined Charlie's career?!
Charlie commented on his casting decision saying, "He’s almost as good a ball player as I am. And he’s perfect for the role because he’s going to have more personality than anybody that’s ever lived … except me."
So humble ...
