Pop culture is currently seeing a resurgence of interest in Dungeons & Dragons, starting with the release of the 5th edition in 2014. As someone who’s been playing for nearly twenty years, I’m thrilled to see its growing popularity. We’re now seeing more and more TV shows and movies inspired by D&D, and the game has become so influential that it subtly shapes stories even when creators aren’t aware of it. It’s a ripple effect – D&D inspires one work, which then inspires another, and so on.

Charlie Sheen previously explained that he didn’t call Jon Cryer directly to be in the documentary because he didn’t have Cryer’s phone number. The director, Andrew F. Renzi, reached out to Cryer instead. After seeing Cryer’s contributions, Sheen wrote him a thank you note and apology for not connecting personally, hoping to see him again. Sheen jokingly added to People magazine that he might have sent the message to the wrong number, noting Cryer is always very responsive. He ended with a playful request for Cryer to send him his current phone number via direct message if he’s reading the article.
