CBS Looks to Replace Charlie Sheen

By Justin Worsley,

In an article posted on People.com, CBS is reportedly looking into replacing Charlie Sheen on "Two and a Half Men."

CBS fired Sheen due to his recent drug abuse as well as his actions in the media. Sheen has said that he will be seeking legal action for breach of contract.

Producers have reportedly been talking to "Parks and Recreations'" Rob Lowe about the vacancy. Former "Full House" heartthrob John Stamos has also been brought up.

People.com also fingered Steve Carell, who's contract with "The Office" ends this season and he has already announced that he will not return.

Lowe, 46, will also play a role in the upcoming season of Showtime's "Californiacation." It is unclear as to whether or not Sheen's replacement will actually overtake Sheen's role or if a new character will be created.

Production of the current season was put on hold last month due to Sheen's condition. Sheen has checked into a rehab facility three times in the past year.
