In his first interview since learning the news, Sheen told Access Hollywood's Billy Bush that his former bosses at Warner Bros. Television, which produces the show, did not contact him to break the news - he found out via technology.
"I got a text or something. Here's another thing -- these guys are such yellow cockroaches that they didn't even have the decency to call me. I put 5 bill[ion] in their cheap suit pockets and another half a bil' in what's-his-cheese's pockets and this is the... respect I get?" Sheen told Bush. "It's just deplorable and they should be ashamed of themselves!"
Sheen blamed his firing - not on his recent media onslaught - but on his former bosses not understanding the actor.
"Whatever. I guess if you can't process a guy, or realize his value, you must terminate him," Sheen told Bush. "That's real high-brow thinking, really evolved thinking. I don't know. It is what it is. I'm more worried about my children [Bob and Max] right now than any of this nonsense, you know."
Sheen confirmed to Bush that he plans to move forward with potential legal action against his bosses for breach of contract.
"I think that they realized that," Sheen said. "They exercised such a cheap move and [this is] so silly and so transparent and... it's so juvenile. It is the work of infants. It is the work of silly infants and it's just -- if this is what it had to come to, to get me out of those silly shirts, then so be it. So maybe I'll wear one, just on the final day when I go and remove all of their bazillions."
AccessHollywood.com, on Monday afternoon, Warner Bros. Television, which produces "... Men" confirmed they had fired Sheen.
