Actor Charlie Sheen has reportedly missed several days of work causing the 'Anger Management' producers to delay the production of the show.

According to the Hollywood Reporter, Lionsgate is using several stand-ins to play the actor in certain scenes due to his absence from the set.

The actor's no-show on the set has reportedly angered his fellow castmembers who are threatening to stop working if he persists with his behaviour.

The troubled actor, who was thrown out of 'Two And A Half Men' due to a very public spat with the show's creater following his meltdown, has been rubbing people wrong on his current show too.
 

Sheen's publicist, Jeff Ballard, however, has denied that the show has used stand-ins or shot around the actor.

"We did not shoot last week because another member of the cast was sick. Charlie is always ready, willing and able to shoot Anger Management and looks forward to returning on Monday," the actor's representative said.

It is not the first controversy related to Sheen. Earlier, Sheen got actress Selma Blair, who had played Sheen's love interest, bumped from the show. The actor had used expletive texts to dismiss Blair, who apparently had questioned the work ethic of the actor.
