Charlie Sheen may soon be back on network TV. The troubled actor met with officials at the Fox network last week to discuss his starring in a new show, said The Hollywood Reporter. After the meeting, the actor tweeted: “Perhaps a new lair...? A Fox and a Warlock? Epic.” He included a picture of a Fox television logo. CBS and Warner Bros., meanwhile, were in the process of deciding whether to bring back Two and a Half Men, the country’s most-watched TV comedy, without Sheen next season. Several reports claimed that CBS chief executive Les Moonves was trying to persuade the show’s producer and Warner Bros. to bring Sheen back, but sources told TMZ.com there was “no chance” of that happening, given his wild behavior and vitriolic public attacks on CBS and Warner Bros.
