Speaking to Extra, Kutcher said that he is greatly enjoying working with Tamblyn.

"She's just amazing! I've been working with her all week, and I'm beyond excited," he said.

Tamblyn's character Jenny will arrive in the season 11 premiere looking for her father, only to find Walden Schmidt (Ashton Kutcher) living in his apartment.

"I don't believe they are [changing the name]," Cryer said, teasing: "I am the half a man, just everybody get used to that."

Tamblyn's previous credits include House, Joan of Arcadia and The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret.

Her addition to Two and a Half Men comes as Angus T Jones steps away as a full-time cast member.

Two and a Half Men returns on Thursday, September 26 at 9.30pm ET.
