Actor Charlie Sheen has been fired from the hit US sitcom Two and a Half Men by Warner Bros Television.

The studio explained that it had acted following "cautious consideration". The news arrives amid a frenzy of US media reviews on Sheen's controversial personalized lifestyle.

No determination has been produced on the future of the tv series, a spokesman for Warner Bros explained on Monday.

Sheen, the highest compensated actor on US tv, has also appeared in movies which include Wall Street and Platoon.

Production of Two and a Half Men had been suspended ever since late January after Sheen, the son of Hollywood actor Martin Sheen, entered rehabilitation for noted drug and alcohol abuse.

The sitcom is the most popular sequence on the CBS television network.

"Soon after watchful consideration, Warner Bros Television has terminated Charlie Sheen's services on Two and a Half Men successful right away," Warner Bros mentioned in a statement.

When asked by the Associated Press news company if he would sue, Sheen replied by means of text message with the phrase "big". He added his subsequent move would be a "huge one".

"This is very very good news," he stated in a statement obtained by celebrity website TMZ.
