Before he went nuts and pissed away a job that paid $50 to $75 million per year, Charlie Sheen (born Carlos Estevez) had a lengthy acting career that officially started with Red Dawn in 1984.
While his brother Emilio Estevez was more ambitious with writing and directing, Sheen had the better movie career thanks to two aces in the hole from Oliver Stone -- Platoon and Wall Street (he was strongly considered for Born on the Fourth of July, but Stone went with some guy named Tom instead). However, his partying and addiction ways seemed to lead to a string of crappy movies (even one that was directed by Clint Eastwood) and Sheen's time on the A-list quickly came to an end.
Later on, Sheen's stint as Michael J. Fox's replacement on "Spin City" opened new doors for him, which eventually led to "Two and a Half Men" and becoming the highest paid TV actor of all-time. Which he once again pissed away with his partying and addiction ways.
So buried beneath all the headlines is an actor who has been around for over 25 years, with a lot of good movies on his resume but even more bad ones. This contest is for his acting roles only -- movies or television -- all genres accepted.
