Could there be any other way to eliminate Charlie Sheen from “Two and a Half Men" than killing him and have his funeral held at the show’s ninth season premiere.

Deadline has confirmed in a report Monday that indeed Charlie Harper, Sheen’s character on U.S. most-watched television show, will be featured on its season premiere

However, to Charlie Sheen’s expected chagrin, the once full-of-life character of the troubled actor will be dead at the show’s premiere. Citing a report by TMZ, CBS News noted that the producers of the show killed Charlie Sheen by having his character drove to the cliff.

The show, featuring Ashton Kutcher to replace Charlie, will be a two-parter, said Nellie Andreeva of Deadline.com.

As “Men” debuts its first episode on September 19, it will introduce Kutcher as one of the buyers of Sheen’s house, which producers included in its story line to put out in the market following the star’s death.

According to CBS News, the producers of the show, including Sheen’s nemesis, Chuck Lorre have already listed big actors in Hollywood for cameo roles on the premiere in order to help Kutcher get started.

Kutcher was named to replace Sheen in May, shortly before CBS announced its line-up for the fall.

"I can't wait to get to work with this ridiculously talented 2.5 team, and I believe we can fill the stage with laughter that will echo in viewers' homes...I can't replace Charlie Sheen, but I'm going to work my ass off to entertain the hell out of people," Kutcher was quoted as saying in a separate report by IBTimes.

He came from a long line of actors rumored to be the show’s big star. Other men that surfaced as possible Sheen’s replacement included Robe Lowe, Jeremy Piven, John Stamos and Hugh Grant.

The ninth season of “Men” starts taping its first episode on Friday, August 6.
