New look for Ashton Kutcher

Ashton Kutcher changed his look. The actor was forced to shave his beard for the next week of Two and a Half Men.

“These guys wrote a screenplay that dictated I cut my hair and shaved my beard,” Kutcher explained.” Watch on Monday, it’s a real good show.”

Kutcher’s character Walden Schmidt has to change his look on the show because of the romantic relationship developing in the series. “It was great to have a lead character that didn’t look like any any lead character on television,” said executive producer Chuck Lorre.

However, one big question remains: will Kutcher return for another season?

“The deal we structured was a test deal,” Kutcher talked about his contract. “The show is outperforming the numbers from before I was here. I think people are responding to it. For me, having a show that people like and want more of — that’ll dictate my decision. I have a couple features I’m going to do in the summer. Right now, I’m looking at [the summer features] as a hiatus. I’m interested in coming back.”

Lorre announced that everyone wanted to see the series continued.

“I think the ratings warrant it,” Lorre said. “But CBS has not said anything to us about it, and there’s Ashton, and [co-star Angus T. Jones] is about to go to college — there’s a lot of things up in the air.”

Talking about Charlie Sheen’s comments according to which the show was lazy, Lorre said:

“If you dont like the show, I’m sorry. I’m doing the best I can. I’ll try harder. We try to put on a funny episode every week.”
