Charlie Sheen’s meltdown/rants/antics might be funnier than the show he was on.
It’s Charlie’s war now.
Swaggering actor Charlie Sheen plans to return fire at CBS, Warner Bros. and “Two and a Half Men” creator Chuck Lorre — by slapping them with a $320 million “mental anguish” lawsuit, The Post has learned.
The in-your-face legal move comes after the network declared war on its biggest star Thursday, yanking Sheen’s top-rated sitcom for the rest of the season after two bizarre, live radio interviews in which the actor tore into the show’s producers.
As part of his lawsuit, which a source said will be filed as early as today, Sheen is expected to demand payment for the ninth season of the sitcom, which has yet to be filmed.
Sheen is especially livid with Lorre, the source said.
“All Sheen has right now is time and money to destroy that little f- -k,” the source told The Post. “Charlie’s like a samurai warrior.”
The series’ cancellation came on the heels of a production halt last month, when the actor went into treatment for drug and alcohol addiction at his Beverly Hills home.
Two weeks ago, Sheen declared himself sober and demanded that the studio start filming “Two and a Half Men” again.
Sheen has “always shown up on time and ready to work,” the source said. “What goes on during his own time has always been his own business.”
But CBS is saying not anymore — and has banned Sheen from the Warner Bros. lot where “Men” is filmed, it was reported last night.
“The top people in the studio’s security department were all called together Friday night, and the word was passed to all the guards: Charlie Sheen is officially banned,” a source told the celebrity Web site RadarOnline.
“If he and his driver show up [today] — as Charlie has said he would — they are to be turned away.
“Everyone was told not to even let him in far enough that he could make a U-turn and leave. If he approaches the gate, he’ll have to back up to leave, no matter how many cars we may have to move behind him.”
This cat has officially lost his mind. But its f**king hilarious!
