Nothing is off limits for Charlie Sheen as the Two and a Half Men star dishes on his sordid past in the new Netflix documentary, aka Charlie Sheen.
“How do I present this with any class?” Sheen, 59, said in the trailer for his upcoming documentary. “When you got a lot of shame about a lot of stuff … shame is suffocating.”
“I lit the fuse, you know, and my life turns into everything it wasn’t supposed to be,” he continued. “Everything was fine for awhile. Nobody got hurt. Nobody got arrested. For a while.”
Sheen has a long history of substance abuse which hit its peak in the early 2010s as the actor was reportedly “smoking seven gram rocks” before getting killed off his hit sitcom.
Now, the Major League star is peeling back the curtain on his life for the first time, from with his upbringing to his well-documented spiral.
“I can’t imagine being my dad,” Sheen said in the trailer of his famous father Martin Sheen. “I really hurt the people I love.”
Sheen is joined by former costars Jon Cryer, Sean Penn and Chris Tucker, ex-wives Denise Richards and Brooke Mueller, Two and a Half Men creator Chuck Lorre and brother Ramon Estevez. His former drug dealer, Marco, also makes an appearance.
“With seven hard-fought years of sobriety behind him, Charlie Sheen — as you’ve never seen him — finally leaves it all on the table, and revisits the very public peaks and valleys of his life with humor, heart, and jaw-dropping candor,” Netflix revealed of the documentary.
“The stuff that I plan on sharing, I have made a sacred vow to only reveal to a therapist,” Sheen said, before adding that nothing will be “off limits.”
“This isn’t a comeback. It’s a revelation.”
