Ashton Kutcher, Jon Cryer set for ‘Two and a Half Men’ season 11, but Angus T Jones out as regular
CBS confirmed on Twitter Friday that the show Two and a Half Men has been renewed for the 2013-2014 season.
The long running comedy is dropping the “Half” for the new season as Angus T. Jones won’t be returning as a regular. CBS alluded to guest appearances but no details were available at this time.
Both starsAshton Kutcher and Jon Cryer have closed new one-year deals to return paving the show’s return for at least one more season. Kutcher will receive $700,000 per episode with Cryer earning slightly less, keeping the duo as the highest-paid TV actors.
Jones’ departure is not surprising.
He had indicated his desire to go to college and originally planned to leave after last season until he had a change of heart at the last minute and signed on to return. During the fall, the actor criticized the show after finding Christ and his character “was sent to the Army” and his appearances were reduced.
Jones later apologized and subsequently returned to regular work.
Based on the show’s strong performance, CBS’ entrainment president Nina Tassler in January reached out to Two And A Half Men producer Warner Bros TV to start talks about Season 11.
