The parents of late Star Trek actor Anton Yelchin have settled a wrongful death claim against the makers of the car which killed him.
The confidential settlement agreement between Victor and Irina Yelchin and Fiat Chrysler was filed and agreed on Thursday, with the carmaker saying it was "pleased that we've reached an amicable resolution in this matter".
Although the late actor's parents have not yet commented on the settlement, their lawyer Gary Dordick said the money would go to the Anton Yelchin Foundation and fund a documentary on his life.
Anton Yelchin died in June last year when his Jeep Grand Cherokee crushed him between a letterbox and a fence at the doorstep of his LA home.

The 27-year-old got out of his car in his driveway, failing to securely put it in "park". The vehicle than rolled backwards down the steep path towards him.
He died of accidental blunt force asphyxia.
The US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) said in February that 2015 models of the vehicle - like Yelchin's - could continue to move after drivers thought they had locked them in "park", and linked the issue to more than 100 crashes.

Manufacturer Fiat Chrysler's US unit issued a recall for hundreds of thousands of Jeep Grand Cherokees and other models in April to address the problem.
"We continue to extend our deepest sympathies to the Yelchin family for their tragic loss," Fiat Chrysler said.

South Korea holds live-fire drills that simulate destroying North Korea's leadership "The reason they want it, I think, is they want to be able to either respond to North Korean provocation or they want North Korea to be aware that they have the capability to respond if North Korea goes too far," said Schuster, now a Hawaii Pacific University professor. "To an extent it's as much a political as an operational development that's important to South Korean self-confidence." Moon has sought to be "more accommodating" to North Korea than his predecessor and looked for nonmilitary ways to resolve the situation, Schuster said, but the North's recent actions have undermined public confidence in his policies. They have also alarmed South Korea's allies in the region and around the world. The United States responded this week to a series of missiles launches by North Korea -- one of them over Japan -- by staging a mock...
Swae Lee Sleeps With His Jewelry On CreditCreditAkram Shah for The New York Times Swae Lee , half of the hip-hop duo Rae Sremmurd , has been stepping out on his own. After teaming with such disparate artists as French Montana (“ Unforgettable ”), Post Malone (“ Sunflower ”) and Madonna (“ Crave ”), he is set to release his second solo album. He has also been honing a signature style, beyond his mop-top dreads and elaborate tattoos. Over a late lunch of French toast with maple syrup at the Public hotel in Lower Manhattan, he shared some fashion favorites. My favorite top is a button-down, for sure. It’s got to fit so clean. Sometimes it can be oversize and I love that, too. I like a light material, one that feels silky. I like both plain and patterned, but if it’s a dope pattern, it’ll beat plain any day. I like ones by Dolce & Gabbana and AllSaints. I also have Versace ones. I really just found out about Asos , and now I’m going crazy on there. ...
