Acclaimed director Tony Scott owes his agency for his multi-million dollar paychecks.

When "Top Gun" director Tony Scott jumped to his death off a California bridge last August, he left behind an alleged $1 million in unpaid commissions to his powerhouse talent agency, Creative Artists Agency (CAA).

This week, CAA filed a creditor's claim against Scott's estate in L.A. County Superior Court seeking $1,040,522 to be exact in unpaid commissions from several film projects.

CAA says Scott owes the agency a 10 percent cut of his fees (at least) — which aren't cheap.
