Ashton Kutcher Confirmed To Be Replacing Charlie Sheen On ‘Two and a Half Men’
Two sources with knowledge of the deal told the Hollywood Reporter that actor Ashton Kutcher is in the final stages of negotiation to replace Charlie Sheen on the hit CBS show Two and a Half Men.
With the deal all but signed, Kutcher is said to be receiving a “huge payday” to join television’s No. 1 comedy. The exact amount he’ll be paid is unknown.

Earlier this week, it was reported that British actor Hugh Grant had turned down an offer with the studio. Now, creator Chuck Lorre has come up with a story line to tie Kutcher into the plot. One source said, “It’s really funny. People are going to love it.”
This will be the first regular television series for Kutcher since he appeared on FOX’s That 70′s Show. The network is hoping that the actor, who is married to Demi Moore, will bring in a youthful audience to the show, as well as “a big online profile” with his 6.7 million Twitter followers. Needless to say, they certainly won’t have trouble promoting the show.

Another source said, ”Chuck’s really happy.” Warner Bros. and Kutcher’s rep have declined to comment on the deal.
This would be the best match possible. Kutcher is funny, good looking and seems relatively easy to deal with. As a matter of fact, he’s the complete opposite of Charlie Sheen. Perfect fit!
