CHARLIE SHEEN has inked a deal for a new sitcom with Lionsgate Television and Sheen could well be making more money than ever! That’s right even more than his $2 million per episode on Two And A Half Men!
According to the latest Hollywood celebrity gossip, “Charlie has inked a deal with Lionsgate Television to create and star in a new sitcom,” an insider tells Radar Online. “Charlie’s character will be very similar to the one he played on Two And a Half Men, however the show will be a lot racier.”
“Networks and cable are bidding on the show right now, with TBS being the front runner.”
“Lionsgate Television will produce the show. They have committed to ten episodes up front with the option to pick-up and produce 90 more episodes if the ratings prove to be successful. This means the sitcom could be on TV for 8 years, which is a long time! It also means that Charlie will make more money than ever before!”
According to same snitch, Charlie won’t be getting paid the $2 million per episode that he received on Two and Half Men but he will have a higher back-end deal, which means in the long run he could make much more than he did on the CBS show of course it’ll all depend on viewership.
On top of the new sitcom, Lionsgate Television also plans to release Charlie‘s nationwide live stage performances, My Violent Torpedo of Truth/Defeat is Not an Option shows.
