about the two reuniting for “Bookie,” Lorre’s new Max series.“The anxiety that I had prior to our first chat was a tsunami,” Sheen, 58, told The Post in an exclusive interview. “Chuck got on the phone and couldn’t have been more lovely or engaging.
It was so healing … and it was so surreal when the little voice in your head keeps saying, ‘This can’t be happening.’“It was like a really fun dream you’re having,” he said. “It was just so refreshing and liberating.
I felt like so much weight had been lifted. It was hard for me to reach out [to Chuck] just because of the amount of shame I’ve lived under for all these years.”Sheen added, “I told Chuck, ‘You know, there’s not a day that goes by that I don’t have a moment of regret about the whole episode,’ and he said, ‘It’s time to move past all that.'”“It’s easy to forget that we worked together for eight-and-a-half years and made 170 episodes of television and had a lot of fun, more often than not,” Lorre, 71, told The Post. “It was time to put all that craziness behind us.”Sheen was starring in “Two and a Half Men,” Lorre’s top-rated CBS sitcom, when, in 2011, he plunged into a very public meltdown.
He was eventually fired from the show and acrimonious words were exchanged between the star and series co-creator (but mostly from Sheen) — creating a seemingly insurmountable rift … until now.“It was all him,” Sheen said about Lorre reaching out regarding “Bookie.” “Any chance I got, if I did the odd podcast or interview … I would just talk about about [Chuck] in a way hoping it would get back to him and then maybe he caught wind of some of that.“The people that were around me knew that I had parked that [meltdown] nonsense and retired my stein,” the actor continued.
