A Japanese trailer has been released from the upcoming drama « 9/11 » starring Charlie Sheen.
What’s notable is that the « Two and a Half Men » star has previously raised questions about the 9/11 terrorist attacks.
During a radio interview with Alex Jones in 2006, the 51-year-old actor claimed that the towers had collapsed because of a « controlled demolition, » rather than two planes being flown into them.
« We’re not the conspiracy theorists on this issue, » he said. « It seems to me like 19 amateurs with box cutters taking over four commercial airlines and hitting 75% of the targets — that feels like a conspiracy theory. »

On « The Jimmy Kimmel Live Show, » Sheen said he had « questions » surrounding the attack and, after much research, decided that the facts « didn’t add up. »
He also spoke at the Neocon Agenda — a conference organized by neoconservatives, some of whom believe in 9/11 conspiracy theories — and called for people to « wake up and join us, » speaking out to « unleash the juggernaut of truth. »
It’s also Sheen’s first role since coming out as HIV-positive in November.
The film stars Sheen and Gina Gershon as an estranged couple who find themselves in an elevator at the World Trade Center when the towers are attacked. Directed and co-written by Martin Guigui, it’s based on Patrick Carson’s play « Elevator » and also stars Whoopi Goldberg, Luis Guzman, Wood Harris and Jacqueline Bisset.
