Sheen took to Instagram, where he shared a video of himself in conversation with Douglas. He was heard saying: “Michael Douglas, welcome to Mostly Sheenius.” To which Douglas replied: “Thank you, Charlie. It's an honor to have you. Wow. Acid flashback, lots of good memories, real time, knowing each other.”

Recalling some memories with Douglas, Sheen said: “Very good memories. No, it's an absolute pleasure. It's a little surreal. I'm reminded of one of Bud Fox's lines in early stage of that film when he says, life comes down to a few moments. And this is one of them.”
