"A Glimpse Inside the Mind of Charlie Swan III" will be Sheen's first big-screen project since he was fired from his sitcom "Two and a Half Men" for his drug use and erratic behavior several months ago.

Variety said "Glimpse" is about a successful graphic designer whose life takes a dive after his girlfriend leaves him.

Schwartzman and Coppola previously collaborated on the film "The Darjeeling Limited."
