 A former Two and a Half Men star who later encouraged people to stop tuning in has been photographed looking completely unrecognisable a decade after leaving the show. From 2003 until 2012, Angus T. Jones played Jake Harper in the sitcom alongside Charlie Sheen and Jon Cryer. In 2010, Angus became the highest paid child star in television at the age of 17 when his new contract with Two and a Half Men guaranteed him US$7.8 million (£6.1 million) over the next two seasons, amounting to US$300,000 (£236,000) for each of the 26 episodes. However when his character was given more adult storylines in 2011, where Jake was portrayed as a heavy marijuana user and sexually active, Angus said he was not comfortable with the scenes and that it had been 'very awkward' to do them while he was not legally an adult himself. The following year he shared that he had turned towards religion, becoming a Seventh-day Adventist, and soon after called the show 'filth' and no longer wanted to appear as it conflicted with his faith. Since leaving the series, Angus has only appeared in one other TV show, an episode of a 2016 web series created by Louis C.K. called Horace and Pete. Angus T. Jones slammed the series after leaving it in 2012 (Picture: Snorlax/MEGA) While he has nearly 25,000 followers on Instagram, he rarely shares any updates on social media and largely retreated from the spotlight after leaving Two and a Half Men. But now Angus, now 29, has been seen out and about grabbing lunch in Los Angeles. Photos taken this week showed the former child actor wearing a grey hoodie and black shorts while carrying a large water bottle and texting on his flip phone. He completed the casual ensemble with black sneakers, a grey beanie and blue-tinted sunglasses. When Angus got into his car, he took his hat off to reveal his newly shaved head.
