Actor Sean Penn has dropped out of an upcoming film project, The Three Stooges.  His fans will be disappointed to find out that he will not be lending his talents to the role of Larry in the upcoming remake.  The reason behind his drop?  Penn is reportedly going to take a much needed sabbatical.

Stating personal reasons, Penn and wife Robin Wright Penn have had their share of marital problems and have recently called off their legal separation for the second time.  One thing seems clear–they apparently want to make their marriage work.

His plan is to take at least a year or more off to focus his attention on his family.  We wish the Penn family our best!
