The parents of Star Trek actor Anton Yelchin have settled their legal case against the makers of his car, which rolled downhill and killed him in 2016.

The amount hasn’t been disclosed yet.

The lawyer for Yelchin’s parents said the money would go to the Anton Yelchin Foundation.

The Russian-born actor, who was 27, died when his 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee pinned him against a concrete mailbox at his house in Los Angeles on June 19, 2016 according to police.

Anton Yelchin played Chekov in the rebooted Star Trek films released in 2009 and 2013.
