Ramón Luis Estévez (born August 7, 1963), sometimes billed as Ramón Sheen, is an American actor and director who runs Estevez Sheen Productions.[2]

Early life

Estevez is the second of four children born to actor Martin Sheen and artist Janet Templeton.[3][4] His siblings are actors Emilio Estevez, Charlie Sheen,[3] and Renée Estevez.[5] His father is of Spanish and Irish descent.

Career

Acting career

Estevez's movies include That Was Then... This Is Now (1985) and Cadence (1990).[6] In Cadence, he played a sycophantic "spineless corporal"[3] to the stockade's commanding officer.[7][8] Estevez was disguised in Cadence as a funny guard who wore glasses and "his hat most of the time" to prevent being recognized as Charlie Sheen's brother.[9]

In 1992, Estevez appeared in The Last P.O.W.? The Bobby Garwood Story.[10]

He appeared in Diamond Rio's 1996 video "It's All in Your Head",[11] and has written songs for Diamond Rio. Estevez's plays include a 1982 Burt Reynolds Dinner Theatre performance in One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest.[12]

Directing and producing career

Estevez is involved in production development of Warner Bros.-affiliated company, Estevez Sheen Productions,[13] a combination of his father's real and stage surnames.[14] The production company is located in Los Angeles, California.[15]

In 2010, Estevez approached Michael Ritchie about staging the play The Subject Was Roses at the Mark Taper Forum on behalf of[16] Estevez Sheen Productions.[17] Martin Sheen created the play's Timmy on Broadway in 1964 and wanted to revisit it as Timmy's dad, John.[16] In collaboration with Ritchie and Sheen, Estevez arranged for Brian Geraghty to play a role[18] with Neil Pepe as the director.[19] The play opened on February 21, 2010 with Estevez in attendance.[20] A 2011 Estevez Sheen Productions project was The Way with James Nesbitt written and directed by Emilio Estevez and starring Martin Sheen.[14][21]

From 2012 to 2014, Estevez co-produced Anger Management with his brother Charlie Sheen.
