The star of Two and Half Men wants to take up his classic comedic character Ricky 'Thing" Vaughn in a new version of the film, he tells TMZ.

Sheen said he'd do a new version of the 1989 movie if a script were greenlighted. He insists it will be Major League 3, even though Major League: Back to the Minors is technically the third film in the franchise.

Sheen, however, does not see the artistic merits to the third film -- calling it "an abortion” -- and does not believe it should be counted with the rest of the Major League films.

Sheen screened the original Major League during a baseball All-Star party at his house over the weekend that included baseball stars Brian Wilson, Eddie Murray and Lenny Dykstra.
