If you’re planning to see Fox’s “Young Guns�--the Emilio Estevez/Charlie Sheen/Kiefer Sutherland/Lou Diamond Phillips Western opening Aug. 12--you’d better skip the cover story in Premiere.

Premiere gives away the ending, with four photos detailing Sheen’s ultimate fate--and the film makers are unhappy about it.

“It’s stupid to reveal such an important plot point like that,� Sheen told us. “Nobody from the magazine told me they were going to show the scene or I wouldn’t have done the story (interview).�

Added a spokesman for the producing Morgan Creek Films, “Nobody at the magazine even consulted us about this. It shows a lack of sensitivity on Premiere’s part.�

Exec co-editor Peter Biskind said the mag has no policy about revealing major plot points: “It’s a judgment call that should be decided on a film-by-film basis.� He suggested Premiere may have made a mistake and might catch some flak after the film opens.
