The former ‘Two and a Half Men’ actor – was sensationally fired from the show and replaced by Ashton Kutcher after a public spat with its creator Chuck Lorre – could reportedly have signed a deal to appear in the yet to be penned series by the end of the week.

According to gossip website TMZ, the sitcom is being “written specifically around Charlie” and would go straight to series without featuring a pilot episode.

The troubled star’s ‘Two and a Half Men’ co-star Jon Cryer - who plays his brother Alan Harper in the show – recently admitted the cast of the sitcom were initially unsure about continuing without Charlie.

He said: “I love him, he's a great friend. All of us, none of us wanted to continue with the show if we felt like it was hurting him, and there was a point at which, we felt like, there's no control over him.

Charlie’s ‘Two and a Half Men’ alter-ego Charlie Harper is set to be written out of the show by moving to Paris.

con't: I'm not even sure who the villains are anymore. I was a devoted Chas. fan prior to this mess, now, like the Mel Gibson movies I used to enjoy, he is DEAD to me professionally. Bye, bye Chas. I patiently await your obituary (you too Mel).

Damn, what's a '1/2' actor have to do before some executive chooses ethics over money? What lesson are we teaching our children and those who think like children? Greed, drugs, thinking the world revolves around your needs regardless of how it effects the workers who counted on you for technical jobs so they may support their loved ones.
