LOS ANGELES — Charlie Sheen recently sold his profit participation rights to “Two and a Half Men” for nearly $27 million, the actor disclosed in a court filing seeking to cut child support payments for his twin sons.

Sheen’s filing Wednesday seeks to alter his divorce settlement with ex-wife Brooke Mueller. It states his income has changed significantly and he wants to change the $55,000-a month minimum monthly child support payments for his 6-year-old boys.

The actor lists more than $12 million in debts, the majority of which is owed on mortgages, taxes, and legal fees.
