Hollywood
hotheads Charlie Sheen and Mel Gibson will be on the same movie set in Robert
Rodriguez's movie Machete Kills.
Sheen was just cast to play the US president in the film, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Rodriguez announced Sheen's casting on Twitter, saying, "I just cast Charlie Sheen in #machetekills as the President of the United States! Who better? More soon..."
The ensemble movie, already filming in Austin, Texas, also co-stars one of Hollywood's other most legendarily unpredictable actors, Gibson, as well as sexy stars including Jessica Alba, Amber Heard, Sofia Vergara and Zoe Saldana.
It's unclear what role Gibson is taking on in the sequel to the pulpy 2010 movie Machete.
The move to cast Sheen adds to the actor's career rehabilitation after a very public meltdown last year which saw his exit from the hit show Two and a Half Men. Sheen said in a Playboy interview recently that the episode was a "psychotic break."
"I started to unravel," Sheen said. "I finally just said things I had always been thinking. But in the middle of a psychotic break."
He's making a comeback with a new comedy, F/X's Anger Management.
