Opinion
JOHNSON, Acting P. J.
Robert Wagner individually and as trustee of his children’s trusts brought this action against Columbia Pictures Industries, Inc., claiming he and the trusts are contractually entitled to share in the net profits Columbia earned from two motion pictures it produced based on the Charlie’s Angels television series. The trial court concluded the contract did not entitle Wagner and the trusts to share in the profits from the movies and granted Columbia’s motion for summary judgment. Wagner filed a timely appeal from the judgment. We affirm.
