Over a decade after a falling out that led to the downward spiral of one of CBS' most successful sitcoms, Charlie Sheen and Chuck Lorre are reuniting.
It was announced by Deadline that Charlie, 57, will be partnering up with his former showrunner on Max's comedy series How to Be a Bookie.
The actor is set to play a recurring role on the sitcom, which will star Sebastian Maniscalco, although it hasn't been revealed as of yet when the show will premiere.
The pair are coming together for the first time since in 2011, Charlie was fired from his lead role in Two and a Half Men after comments made about the show's creator and his co-stars.

After entering rehab that year, the actor made several disparaging remarks about Chuck in radio interviews, even telling TMZ that he wanted to "fight" the 70-year-old and "if he wins, then he can leave MY show!"
The show was then pulled from production after an eight-season run, eventually going on a production hiatus and resulting in Charlie's firing.

He then went on a series of controversial interviews, claiming that he had "tiger blood" and creating instantly viral moments like his "winning" monologue and calling himself a "warlock."

However, following his exit, the show did experience a ratings dip as they attempted to restructure it around Jon's Alan and a new addition in the form of Walden Schmidt, played by Ashton Kutcher.
Charlie also filed a wrongful termination lawsuit against the showrunner and Warner Bros., which was settled out of court, and has since taken responsibility for his actions at the time.
