In 2019, Charlie Sheen was nearly locked in to compete on “Dancing With the Stars.” The 28th Season of the ABC dance-off would have had him competing against everyone from former NBA star Lamar Odom to “Bachelorette” alum Hannah Brown. Sheen was even partnered with popular pro dancer Cheryl Burke, according to Us Weekly. His publicist confirmed to the outlet that the actor’s “very generous” offer for “Dancing With the Stars” had been part of a contingency deal for a series pilot on ABC. But at the last hour, Sheen changed his mind and backed out. “I was very flattered by ABC and their offer, but at the end of the day, I have two left feet and I just can’t dance,” he told the outlet.

While he didn’t take the “Dancing” deal, Sheen was still on ABC’s mind for the following season. ABC executive Rob Mills told Variety that even though Sheen rejected the Season 28 offer, he still wanted him for the show. “I think people would love to see him, but it may not be for him,” Mills said. “What I really found very sweet about him is he basically said, ‘I really don’t dance. I’ve got two left feet.’ So there’s a real sweetness and vulnerability, which would be really fun to showcase on the show.”
