The time Charlie Sheen harassed a famous female co-star

Published By Marriska on Mar 25, 2021

Sean Young and Charlie SheenBlade Runner star Sean Young is opening up about Charlie Sheen's antics while they were filming the 1987 Oliver Stone film, Wall Street, starring Michael Douglas and Sheen.

In an interview with the Daily Beast, the 61-year-old actress revealed that her then co-star Sheen was "awful" to her during filming. She said that he had written the word "c***" on a piece of tape and stuck it on her back while they were filming.

Co-star Michael Douglas, whom she described as "wonderful," tore the tape off before Young even saw the note. She recalled, "I said, 'What was that?' and he said, 'Forget it.' Then the art dealer—the guy who brought in all the paintings that were on the wall—was there guarding the paintings, and he told me what Charlie had done."

She added: "I spoke with Charlie the next day and said, 'Your dad was a pro. Writing ‘c***’ on a piece of tape and sticking it to my back? Not pro. It’s just stupid. What are you doing?'”

Young recalled that Sheen "was on a lot of coke" while filming Wall Street. She said: "That’s what coke does to you."

In March 2015, Young gave an interview to The Guardian in which she said that she "had to give up" her career ambitions after facing several challenges. She said: "Of course if I were a man I'd have been treated better. Duh. Why are the dudes that run Hollywood incapable of honoring the women anymore? Maybe it's because all these dudes were not the first choice of the women of their youths. But they can make it in Tinseltown and perpetuate the desperate delusion that they are powerful."

    I would be surprised if Charlie Sheen didn't do stupid stunts like this. Somebody should write a book about him...

    Wow, the more we hear about him, the bigger a pig he is. He took Soleil Moon Frye's virginity when she was a teen and raped Corey Haim when he was barely a teen. Doesn't care if children are male or female. I'm guessing this actress turned him down, so he figured he'd get back at her in the most childish way possible.

    It's been over 30 years, don't you think it might be time to let that go? It was a note on your back, albeit a disgusting word, but a note on your back.

    To Jessica: No, according to the following quotes from Soleil herself, Charlie Sheen did not take her virginity; it says that she had consensual sec with him at age 18, but she had been taken advantage of / date raped earlier at age 17 by someone else.

    I am not surprised that Charlie on cocaine or not would do this being the Diva he is.Shame, but for Sean Young,she did things in her past she should want not to resurface.She was accused of stalking Kevin Costner on the set of No Way Out awhile back in the 80's.He got a restraining order against her.So despite the fact I liked her in several movies,she has her own skeletons to keep hidden.I do hope that any man who harasses women gets called out and held accountable but 20 years or so after seems a bit much.

    The message was inappropriate, but not inaccurate.
