Martin Sheen and his son, Charlie, have worked together on several movies and television shows. However, they never starred in a series together. But it is never too late.
AMC announced that the two of them will be starring in the six-episode comedy Happy Jack
Happy Jack is a contemporary family comedy featuring one of America’s favorite comedic actors. Charlie Sheen plays Jack, a bit of a lifelong ne’er-do-well. He’s got two great daughters (though his Dad, played by Martin Sheen, deserves more credit for how they turned out). Kate runs Jack’s company and keeps him on the rails while Sam is a wild child who is more like her Dad. When Sam comes home to introduce everyone to her new boyfriend, Jack’s shocked to learn Paul, a former investment banker turned van life guru, is the same age as he is. Shocked at first (hypocrisy be damned), Jack soon realizes he’s got a choice to make. Will he keep looking out for number one, or embrace this last chance to be a real part of his daughters’ lives?
The younger Sheen said: “I’ve always heard the moments that truly matter happen when they’re supposed to. The good folks at AMC have played a huge hand in deciding that moment is now. It’s no secret that it’s been a minute, and I’m thrilled to be going back on television in such a meaningful way in an equally wonderful show. The crew has reassembled – suffice it to say, it’s time to give the people what they want.”
The first season will tape in front of a live audience early next year and debut shortly after.
Back in the ’80s, girls had movie posters on their walls, from films like The Outsiders, The Lost Boys, and Young Guns. However, outside of the movies, we didn’t see those actors together.
That was the ’80s. In 2026, C. Thomas Howell, Dermot Mulroney, Kiefer Sutherland, Jason Patric, Emilio Estevez, and Charlie Sheen all broke bread together after a long day of signing autographs and taking photos at Fan Expo Dallas.
And we got this photo for free! What a photo it is! I have printed it out and put it on my wall because it makes me feel like a little girl all over again, especially since they are all still so hot.
Which one of their posters did you have on your wall?
Charlie Sheen finally told his wild AF story in a Netflix documentary, and he has done some heavy drugs and alcohol (to put it mildly) throughout his life. But he is sober now.
Therefore, you think, he would not promote beer. But he is. It is just nonalcoholic!
“To ring in the New Year, I’m inviting you to have a beer with me, Wild AF style. Non-alc, full-flavor, zero regrets. Who’s in? Order now in the link in bio, and follow along next week for an announcement on joining me live for a drink this month.”
So raise a glass of Wild AF to celebrate dry January! L’chaim!!!
I respect him for drinking nonalcoholic beer. But just like decaffeinated coffee, I don’t like the taste enough to drink it. But if you do, you have a new alternative.
Before Charlie Sheen was spending time in jail in Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, he was beginning his life of crime in The Execution of Private Slovik. How cute was the 8-year-old in that 1974 movie?
For decades, Charlie Sheen has been the cause of many scandalous headlines, from drugs to his ties to prostitution to two failed marriages to rehab visits to multiple arrests to that Two and a Half Men breakdown. However, we have never heard him tell his story. That is going to change with aka Charlie Sheen.
Tabloid black hole Charlie Sheen knows what’s been said about him, and he’s finally ready to confess. Directed by Andrew Renzi (Pepsi, Where’s My Jet?), aka Charlie Sheen, tracks his upbringing in Malibu to his effortless rise to megastardom — and dramatic fall, all within the public eye. With a stunning clarity earned through seven years of sobriety, Sheen openly speaks about the subjects and events he’s never discussed publicly before. Through extraordinarily candid interviews with his family, friends, and cast members, including ex-wives Denise Richards and Brooke Mueller, ex-Madam Heidi Fleiss, Jon Cryer, Sean Penn, Ramon Estevez, Chris Tucker, and his drug dealer Marco, the most outrageous moments of Sheen’s life are revisited with raw emotion and exceptional warmth, painting a portrait of a flawed man whose penchant for self-destruction is ultimately no match for the ferocious love and forgiveness he inspires in those closest to him.
You might have noticed that there are two big names in his life who are missing from the list of people they talked to for this doc. His father, Martin Sheen, and brother, Emilio Estevez, declined to appear in it. Renzi explained to Tudum that they wanted him to have his moment. Even though they are missing from the movie, they are still close to him and watched the finished product with him.
No offense to Billy Joel, Eminem, and Mariska Hargitay, this is the must-watch documentary of the year. Congrats to Netflix for snagging it.
