The full title of the picture is A Glimpse Inside The Mind Of Charles Swan III . The synopsis reads below…

“Sheen stars as the title character, a successful graphic designer whose fame, money and charm have made him irresistible to women.”

“When his girlfriend breaks up with him, his life swirls into a downward spiral of doubt, confusion and reflection.”

“Through delirious fantasies involving his many failed romances, he begins the hard road of self-evaluation to come to terms with life without her.”

Sounds like a testing role for Charlie Sheen, who is almost completely foreign to fame, money, women and downward spirals.

The film is scheduled for an unspecified 2012 release date.
