Following his firing from “Two and a Half Men,” Charlie Sheen continued to unload on some high-profile names associated with the show, including his co-star Jon Cryer.
Speaking to E!, Sheen says that Cryer’s lack of supportive outreach means, “Obviously, he’s with the trolls.”
“Jon has not called me. He’s a turncoat, a traitor, a troll. Clearly he’s a troll,” says Sheen. “He issued a statement. Is it gonna take me calling him a ‘traitor, juvenile and scared’ for him to get it?”
Of note is the fact that Cryer has not released any official statement on Sheen’s termination from the show.
And if Cryer does end up reaching out with favorable support, Sheen would contend that it is too little, too late.
“What’s there to say? I’ll tell him ‘You’re a little late. Goodbye, troll,’ ” said Sheen. “When I’m starring in multimillion-dollar films and he’s begging me for a supporting role I’ll say, ‘You left me out in the cold with all of your guilt and stupidity.'”
— Not every “Men” co-star has made Sheen’s list of “trolls,” however. The E! story says that cast members Angus T. Jones, Conchata Ferrell, Marin Hinkle and Melanie Lynskey, along with show director Jamie Widdoes, have all reached out with support.
Holland Taylor, who plays the mother to the Sheen and Cryer characters in an Emmy-nominated turn, has meanwhile offered her support via a public statement to the Associated Press.
“Charlie was cordial and polite with all of his cast mates and crew, sometimes even courtly — and always witty,” said Taylor in an e-mail statement to the AP. “We watched movies at his house occasionally — warm evenings with interesting, spirited conversation. This is the guy I know. In this very sad and complicated time, I really have no comment beyond valuing my own history with Charlie, and my abiding affection for him.”
