Associated PressKa-ching. So much for Charlie Sheen's dramatic farewell when he wrapped this last season of Two and a Half Men. Of course, he isn't done with the show. He reached an agreement Monday night for two more years on the hit CBS sitcom.
And his paycheck? Variety reports it's "nearly $2 million an episode."
"To put a fitting end on the 2 1/2 months of whirlwind speculation, I'm looking forward to returning to my CBS home on Monday nights," Sheen, 44, said in a statement, adding his thanks to CBS Corp. Chief Executive Leslie Moonves for his support in cutting a new deal, reports AP.
Meanwhile, Sheen who went through rehab in February, has pleaded not guilty to charges stemming from a Christmas Day domestic violence incident in Aspen, Colo., involving his wife, Brooke Mueller Sheen. He faces a July 21 jury trial in Colorado.
