Ashton Kutcher to replace Charlie Sheen in ‘Two And A Half Men’

Kutcher is on the verge of signing to replace fired Sheen in his US sitcom

Ashton Kutcher is being lined up to a replace Charlie Sheen in Two And A Half Men.

Sheen was fired from the US sitcom earlier this year after his behaviour became increasingly erratic, culminating in a spat with executive producer Chuck Lorre.

The future of the series had been in doubt, but it has now emerged that the search for a replacement has been ongoing, with Kutcher on the verge of signing a deal, according to Hollywoodreporter.com.

Sources claim that Kutcher will receive around $1million (£615,000) per episode. In his old job, Sheen was the highest-paid actor in television, receiving $2million (£1,230,000) an episode, when factoring in his portion of repeat revenue.
