Actress Louise Linton: Charlie Sheen 'was the consummate professional'

Charlie Sheen has been at the front and center of the news for months - the hotel incident in New York City, the parting of ways with "Two and a Half Men," the public disagreements with "Men" creator Chuck Lorre and now his nationwide tour.

Actress Louise Linton, who can soon be seen starring as a friend of Kate Middleton's in the Lifetime movie "William & Kate," worked with Charlie on a movie and tells Zap2it that he could not be more professional.

"He was very professional on the set and he was exceptionally well put-together," says Linton. "Not at all what anybody was expecting."

The movie is "She Wants Me," which Linton describes as "a bit like 'Love Actually, in that there is a lot of different parallel storylines and love triangles going on."

The movie shot in late 2010 - Linton tells us Charlie's days on the set came fairly quickly after his NYC hotel room incident.

"He came and began work on "She Wants Me" about two or three days after the New York dilemma with the hotel room and the woman there, so I think there was a moment where we were all wondering if he was actually going to make it to the set. But he did!" Linton laughs.

"Everyone I spoke to said, 'Oh my gosh, is Charlie going to hit on you, did he hit on you?' And I'm pleased to say he was the consummate professional and wasn't anything like what I was expecting," Linton concludes.

"She Wants Me" does not have a release date yet, but is due out sometime this year. "William & Kate" premieres on Lifetime Monday, April 18. Look for more stuff from Louise closer to the premiere.
