Actor Charlie Sheen has officially lost his primetime television role after producers announced that he had been fired from the sitcom, Two and a Half Men, for good.
The decision comes after the series was put on hold in the wake of Mr Sheen’s increasingly bizarre behaviour and alleged drug abuse.
In the past few weeks Mr Sheen has appeared on radio and television indulging in rants about colleagues, including one where he sneered at his Jewish producer “Chaim Levine”.
At another point Mr Sheen, the son of devoutly Catholic actor Martin Sheen, claimed he had Jewish roots.
