'Two and a Half Men': Show casts Patton Oswalt to play Walden Schmidt's former business partner

We've already met Walden Schmidt's (Ashton Kutcher) mom, his future ex-wife and his brother (well, the gorilla) on "Two and a Half Men." But fans of the show are no doubt wondering what he was like in his days as a computer entrepreneur. For that, the show will soon have an answer.

The highly-rated sitcom has cast comedian and actor Patton Oswalt to play Schmidt's former business partner, EW.com is reporting. One of the show's writers explains to the publication that Oswalt will be "the [Steve] Wozniak to Walden's [Steve] Jobs."

Oswalt recently starred opposite Charlize Theron in the movie "Young Adult." He also worked on "United States of Tara" and "Bored to Death."

The episode with Oswalt will air on Feb. 27 at 9 p.m. ET.

So Zappers, are you as excited to see Oswalt as we are?
