The first image has arrived from the tepidly-awaited comedy sequel Scary Movie 5 , featuring troubled stars Charlie Sheen and Lindsay Lohan sharing a bed together.

Whether or not it turns out to be as surprisingly serviceable as the Stooges movie remains to be seen, but what can be guaranteed is that the pair’s opening scene will be “outrageous, sexy and hilarious”. At least that’s what Dimension’s press department are saying.
