Charlie Sheen has settled his dispute with Warner Brothers, a source confirms to Usmagazine.com.

The former Two and a Half Men star will get an immediate payout of $25 million, which will spiral to $100 million in syndication profits over the next decade, according to TMZ, who first reported the story.

At the Emmys on Sunday he wished his former colleagues well, telling the A-list audience, "I want to take a moment to get something off my chest and to say a few words to everybody here from Two and a Half Men. From the bottom of my heart I wish you nothing but the best for the upcoming season. We spent eight wonderful years together and I know you will continue to make great television."

    They made money off of writing a character that was basically Charlie Sheen. They tolerated his behavior and enabled it. then one day when tey're embarrased and only thinking of the show, they put a spin on the last charlie fiasco. KuDos to charlie for getting off the train. As for the media they eat it up. They'll make the pope look like a rapist if it sells commercials. Crazy like a fox. got a new show goming out too winning!!

    @Erika - Would it be disgraceful if someone offered you that type of Money? Just curious. What the are paying him is nothing compared to what the show gross overall. So, basically they are paying him what he's worth.

Godd Luck, God Speed, you can do it
