Sean Penn seems to have taken a temporary break from racing to the L.A. County courthouse to file for divorce from his wife Robin Wright every eight weeks. You’d think he’d take advantage of this extra time that has now presented itself in his schedule, and focus on making movies, but he’s actually taking a year off.
In a move that has some in the industry left holding the bag — Penn was slated to appear in Cartel and The Three Stooges but has backed out of both projects — Sean has indicated a need to spend time with family as his reason for the sabbatical.
May I be candid? “Sabbaticals” and “taking a break” and “exhaustion and dehydration” all mean the same thing: rehab. It’s a long-standing rumor that Penn has a penchant for the nose candy — how else to explain his little friendship with Leggings Lohan?
I guess we’ll just have to stay tuned for the official announcement, but think about it. You don’t give up the opportunity to play Larry in The Three Stoogesjust so you can chillax a bit — that’s the role of a lifetime. In the meantime, good luck Sean and enjoy your, uh, “rest.”
Yes, most people take a year off to go to rehab.
Wendie are you a Conservative? Just trying to figure out your motivation for posting such nonsense.
Not sure how being a conservative would make you aware that Sean Penn is going to rehab after cutting out of two movies as opposed to making his marriage work with his non-working wife.
There was a very clear blind item about this last week and its quite obvious where he is actually going.

Not follow much politics do you honey?
Damn, I used “honey” several times now on this website recently and not a single offended woman responded. So disappointed, lol.
First of all, everyone needs to settle down because Hes not taking any breaks, he is actually in the process of filming a movie called Fair Game which i was just recently an extra in on Tuesday May 26th in the city. Im not defending him nor am i a die hard fan lol but you guys most deffinately have been mistaken LOL
I am very disappointed that he’s pulled out of 3 Stooges.
Sean is an excellent actor and I always look forward to his movies. This is one I was particularly excited about.
Not sure about the nose candy – perhaps he just needs to get away from RWP.
