An event in Glasgow in which the Hollywood actor Al Pacino, which includes tickets priced at up to more than £7,000, has sold out.
The Oscar-winning Godfather and Scarface actor will be at the SECC on May 19 as part of tour which includes London and Dublin.
In the event the actor, who made his name in more than 40 films, including Scarface, Heat, Any Given Sunday, Scent of a Woman and The Godfather trilogy, talks about his career, reveals personal stories, shows clips from his films and answers questions on stage.
Audiences have also been asked to prepare for "surprise readings" from the actor, who has been nominated for an Oscar eight times.
For the event, Pacino's promoters are offering a "dine with Pacino experience" which includes an "exclusive and intimate lunch with Al Pacino in his hotel before the show", with other benefits, which costs £7,500.
A meet and greet package sold by S2BN Entertainment costs £650.
A 'Fly With Pacino' offer is also being marketed, although its cost is not advertised.
Normal tickets without extra offers are now sold out, a spokesman for DF Concerts said.
The 74-year-old has said: "I'm looking forward to being in Scotland for the first time and meeting people and seeing some of Scotland's legendary scenery. It's a breathtaking country.
"Coming to Glasgow will be one of the highlights of the tour for me and I'm looking forward to a warm Scottish welcome and sharing an evening of engaging conversation and laughter with my Scottish fans."
At a similar event in London two years ago, Pacino was asked who his best leading lady was, to which he replied, "she's out there and we've not met yet".
Pacino said his Frankie and Johnny co-star Michelle Pfeiffer was a good kisser
Pacino also confirmed he passed over Richard Gere's role in Pretty Woman and Bruce Willis' lead in Die Hard.
"I gave that boy a career!" he said. "You know who else I gave a career to? Harrison Ford in Star Wars - that role was mine for the taking but I couldn't understand the script."
But he denied being offered the leading roles in Goodfellas, Midnight Cowboy and Misery, made famous by Robert De Niro, Dustin Hoffman and James Caan.
