While discussing the moment, Lorre revealed the actor's current status.
“He’s doing great,” Lorre said. “He’s a terrific guy. It’s an extraordinary thing. We started working together, he was eight years old. He’s a little boy, right?

"I apologize if my remarks reflect me showing indifference to and disrespect of my colleagues and a lack of appreciation of the extraordinary opportunity of which I have been blessed. I never intended that.”
He continues, “I have been the subject of much discussion, speculation and commentary over the past 24 hours. While I cannot address everything that has been said or right every misstatement or misunderstanding, there is one thing I want to make clear. Without qualification, I am grateful to and have the highest regard and respect for all of the wonderful people on Two and Half Men with whom I have worked and over the past ten years who have become an extension of my family."

Chuck Lorre Isn't So Sure That Charlie Sheen Will Also Reunite With Jon Cryer Down The Line
Angus T. Jones' return to Bookie was a success. However, Lorre doesn't feel as optimistic about a reunion between Jon Cryer and Charlie Sheen.
The TV creator said, "I don’t think so,” Lorre said. “Not that I’m aware of. It’s foolish to say never. It’s still to me more gratifying and fun to do new stuff. And to let let the stuff we did in the past be the past.”
As for Lorre and his own issues with Sheen, he's glad things are finally in the past.
“It was just a lot, for both of us, we were grateful to be past it,” he said of reuniting with Sheen. “Here we are, so many years later. And there was a lot of gratitude. I think it was warm. People said it must have been healing and you know, it was. It was wonderful to not just give the man a hug. We worked together and we had a blast. It was very reminiscent of those wonderful eight years where we had a lot of fun making a show that we worked hard on and we were proud of.”
