The 45-year-old actress, Melanie Lynskey is a renowned personality in the entertainment industry who built her profile by working in supporting roles thus strengthening her position in the acting field. She is known for several of her well-acclaimed portrayal in the series and films including her time in Two and a Half Men in which she portrayed Rose since 2003. Her quirky performance quickly raised her position in the series from the guest character to the main cast.

However, in 2005, she downgraded to a recurring role to explore the horizon of the film industry. While many thought it might have something to do with Charlie Sheen, she decided to clarify the issue.

“But I just was like, This feels like if I keep doing this, then it will only be this. Not just time-wise. But because there was so much exposure, and I knew I had to get out and start building up something else.”

Despite those speculations, she had nothing but kind words for her former co-star as the duo shares a great friendship.
