Inside Charlie Sheen’s Shocking Netflix Documentary
So, Charlie Sheen is back in the spotlight, but this time not with a scandal or a meltdown—it’s through a Netflix documentary called aka Charlie Sheen , directed by Andrew Renzi. And honestly, this isn’t your usual glossy celebrity puff piece. Instead, it’s raw, messy, and strangely honest, pulling together old family footage, conversations with friends like Sean Penn and Chris Tucker, and even an interview with Sheen’s former drug dealer, Marco. Yeah, you heard that right—his drug dealer.
What makes this documentary stand out is that Sheen himself really opens up. He doesn’t have editorial control, which means what you see is the good, the bad, and the downright chaotic. Renzi said he treated the project as a legacy piece—something that probably won’t be made again. Sheen, for once, seemed willing to face his past head-on, admitting both his highs and his incredible lows.
One of the wildest anecdotes shared is about Sheen actually flying a plane on his honeymoon while drunk. Imagine that—hundreds of lives behind him, and he’s at the controls, completely intoxicated. That’s the kind of jaw-dropping “only in Charlie World” moment that explains why he spiraled for so long. The allure of danger, power, and excess was always within reach, and it kept feeding his addiction.
But the documentary isn’t just about shocking stories. It also captures deeply human elements, like home movies from when Sheen was just a kid making films with Sean Penn setting up camera angles. It reminds you he wasn’t born the Hollywood “bad boy”—he was just a boy in a famous family, growing up in an extraordinary environment.

Then there’s the part that almost sounds like dark comedy: his dealer Marco eventually helped him quit crack by diluting it more and more with baking soda until Sheen was basically smoking nothing. It’s absurd, but also strangely poignant—addiction broke him down so much that this bizarre method actually worked.
The doc also explores his infamous firing from Two and a Half Men . Footage from that period was recovered, showing him at his most reckless and combative. Looking back, Sheen admits that those moments fill him with shame—not just for how he treated people like Jon Cryer and Chuck Lorre, but for how far he had let things unravel.
Interestingly, his father Martin Sheen and brother Emilio Estevez chose not to participate. But not out of estrangement—more out of respect. They felt it was Charlie’s story to tell, his moment to own. That decision, in its own way, speaks volumes about their love and boundaries.
The Book of Sheen , alongside the documentary, which promises even more unfiltered reflections.
At the end of the day, aka Charlie Sheen isn’t about glorifying chaos. It’s about survival, self-awareness, and the price of fame. Sheen went further down the rabbit hole than most stars ever survive—and somehow came back. Now, he’s finally telling the story in his own voice, flaws and all.
