And in about two and half minutes, someone is going to take to their Twitter for a rant! (We’re ready Charlie! Let’s hear it!)
Warner Bros. Television and CBS just confirmed what everyone already assumed to be true – Ashton Kutcher is joining the cast of Two and a Half Men.
In the official press release, Ashton shared his deep gratitude for the chance to star on a hit television again and promised he would give his all to the role. He added:
“I can’t wait to get to work with this ridiculously talented 2.5 team and I believe we can fill the stage with laughter that will echo in viewers’ homes. I can’t replace Charlie Sheen but I’m going to work my ass off to entertain the hell out of people!”
We bet the crew is just elated to have you, Ashton – no one more so than the higher-ups, like Chuck Lorre!
What say you Chuck about your new star:
“We are so lucky to have someone as talented, joyful and just plain remarkable as Ashton joining our family. Added to that is the deep sigh of relief knowing that our family stays together. If I was any happier, it’d be illegal.”
Fantastic! Everyone is happy! The studio is happy! The star is happy! The creators are overjoyed!
And we doubt even a very special episode of Charlie’s Korner could ruin everyone’s high right now!
