Why West Wing's Martin Sheen Regrets Changing His Name
After a career spanning over seven decades, The West Wingactor Martin Sheen looks back and regrets changing his name. Sheen's long and storied career has encompassed roles in film, television, and the theater. His star-making turn came in Francis Ford Coppola's war odyssey, Apocalypse Now, in which Sheen played Army Captain Benjamin L. Willard. He's followed that with roles in The Departed, Catch Me if You Can, Wall Street, Gandhi, and Badlands, to name a few. Arguably his most memorable role, though, is that of been Jed Bartlet, one of the greatest fictional presidents of all time, which Sheen played across seven seasons of the Aaron Sorkin-created political drama The West Wing.
