Carlos Irwin “Charlie Sheen” Estevez, an American actor for both cinema and television, is thought to be worth $125 million. the eldest son of Martin Sheen, an actor. Charlie Sheen, a leading man with a talent for action, comedy, and dramatic roles, is almost as well known for his extracurricular activities as for his acting, but after going through scandals that would have ended the careers of many actors, he overcame negative publicity and bad habits to make a significant comeback on television in the late ’90s. Sheen’s private life has recently been in the news as well, with stories concerning drug and alcohol misuse, marital issues, and accusations of domestic violence. The son of actor Martin Sheen, Charlie Sheen was given the name Carlos Irwin Estevez on September 3, 1965 in New York City, New York.
Sheen had a small role in one of his father’s movies when he was nine years old, The Execution of Private Slovik, but his real acting career didn’t start until he portrayed Matt Eckhart in the Cold War drama Red Dawn in 1984. Sheen received his big break in 1986 when Oliver Stone’s Oscar-winning Vietnam drama Platoon cast him as Chris, a soldier with conscience, following several starring roles in made-for-TV movies and minor parts in more well-known feature films. In addition, he has appeared in humorous movies including Major League, the Hot Shots! series, Scary Movie 3 and Scary Movie 4, and others during his career.
Sheen is well-known for his appearances on two sitcoms: Spin City’s Charlie Crawford and Two and a Half Men’s Charlie Harper. Sheen earned $1.25 million each episode of Two and a Half Men in 2010, making him the highest paid actor on television. When back end syndication points are taken into account, the value rises to $2 million. Sheen received a season’s worth of 24 episodes, or around $48 million annually, from the show.
