Charlie Sheen has been open about conquering multiple addictions, from alcohol to crack cocaine, but he blames Johnny Depp for getting him hooked on one particular substance: Nicotine.
In his new memoir, The Book of Sheen, the actor, 60, says he started habitually smoking while working on 1986’s Platoon with Depp, 62.
The Pirates of the Caribbean star, “began to offer the cigs more frequently; I began to accept them less cautiously (usually after P.T. or a meal),” Sheen writes. “This went on for about a week, with Johnny’s strange glee around it growing by the day. He finally clued me in — he had successfully converted one non-smoker on each of his previous three films.”
The Two and a Half Men alum, who told the Daily Beast in 2013 that Depp was a “hardcore” partier, reveals in the book that he finally quit the bad habit in 2019. “I did the math and figured out that I had smoked twenty-five miles of cigarettes when lined up tip-to-butt,” he writes. “Thanks, Johnny; should I ever need one, I’ll send you the bill for my new lung.”
Depp — who once told Cosmopolitan (via Seattle Times) that he smoked three packs a day, but wanted to have “another mouth grafted onto my face to smoke more” — has since admitted the vice is “stupid” and has more recently been photographed vaping.
