Chuck Norris Settles Suit Against CBS, Sony Over 'Walker, Texas Ranger' Profits

After more than five years of legal wrangling, Chuck Norris has settled a suit against CBS and Sony Pictures alleging he was shortchanged out of at least $30 million in profits for Walker, Texas Ranger. On Monday, a Los Angeles Superior Court judge dismissed the case after both sides agreed to resolve the suit in a settlement. Terms of the deal weren’t disclosed. Norris, through his company Top Kick Productions, claimed in a suit filed in 2019 that the companies violated a term in his contract requiring he be paid 23 percent of profits “earned from any, and all, exploitation of Walker,” according to the complaint. He alleged that CBS intentionally marketed and distributed the series in such a way to avoid having to pay him his share of streaming video-on-demand (SVOD) revenue.
