Al Pacino has been slapped with an eye-watering child support bill by a Los Angeles judge.
The Scarface star, 83, has agreed to cough up a hefty amount each month to his girlfriend Noor Alfallah, 29.
The producer - who is 54 years his junior - gave birth to their son Roman in June this year.
The couple got together on the quiet during Covid, before their romance went public in April 2022.

Although sources close to them told TMZ the pregnancy was unplanned, the pair described it as a 'really special' time for them both.
Just three months after Roman was welcomed into the world, Alfallah filed for physical custody of the tot.
But despite submitting the legal paperwork in September, she remains in a relationship with Pacino.
The reasons for the custody bid have not been made public, but they have certainly left fans baffled. Whatever works for them!
Alfallah, the filing states, requested that Pacino pay for child support, her legal fees and any other court-related costs.

Though no amount was specified, it did state: "The court may make orders for support of the children and issue an earnings assignment without further notice to either party."
Now, the custody arrangement for their five-month-old son has finally been thrashed out - and the fees have been agreed on.
Pacino will fork out a whopping $30,000 (£24,550) a month to cover the care of Roman - which could continue to grow based on his annual earnings.
Reports claim he could have to put up another $90,000 (£73,600) at the end of the year, depending on what he rakes in.

He is already set to dish out $110,000 (£90,000) as an upfront payment to Alfallah, on top of the monthly fee.
The cinematic legend will also pay for his son's schooling, with an annual $15,000 (£12,200) payment being put in an education fund which will be on standby for when the child is older.
Pacino is also responsible for the wages of a night nurse, which will set him back another $13,000 (£10,600) a month.
Other expenses that he was already taking on for Alfallah and Roman will also presumably fall on him, according to TMZ.

The actor is also on the hook for his youngest son's future health needs, meaning he will shoulder any expenses that aren't covered by the baby's health insurance.
After hammering out the financial details, the couple also agreed on a custody arrangement.
Pacino and Alfallah were granted joint legal custody, but Alfallah will maintain primary physical custody of their child.
Prior to Pacino's newest addition, the A-lister was already a father to three children with two different women.
He has two 22-year-old twins, Anton and Olivia, with Beverly D'Angelo, whom he dated from 1997 until 2003, and one 33-year-old daughter, Julie Marie, with acting coach, Jan Tarrant.
