London: The Oscar-winning actor Dustin Hoffman was asked to re-shoot some of his scenes for comedy movie ‘Little Fockers’ and has reportedly been paid USD 7.5 millions for five days` work.

"The movie distributors Universal decided on a re-shoot at the last minute, and Hoffman`s character was needed for some new scenes. They couldn`t originally agree on terms with Hoffman, so for the re-shoot he was given USD 7.5 million for five days," femalefirst.co.uk quoted a source as saying. In the film, which is the third installment of ‘Meet The Parents’ comedy franchise, Hoffman plays Ben Stiller`s father Bernie Focker.
