Despite being diagnosed with throat cancer, Michael Douglas refuses to delay his court battle with ex-wife Diandra Douglas over her claim that she’s entitled to half his earnings from the upcoming “Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps,” which opens September 24th. Diandra had offered to postpone the hearing, but “Michael declined; he wants to get this over with as soon as possible,” a source told the New York Post. Lawyers representing the actor and his ex tangled in a New York court yesterday. The suit hinges on a clause in Michael and Diandra’s divorce settlement that entitles her to 50% of any earnings Michael receives from any movies he did, including residuals, merchandising and ancillary rights, during their 23-year marriage. According to Diandra’s lawyers, that provision includes any “spinoffs” of Douglas’ movies.
