Al Pacino 'Godfather Part II' Contract Sells At Auction

A cool piece of Hollywood history just changed hands … the original contract Al Pacino signed for his iconic role as Michael Corleone in “The Godfather Part II.”

The contract — dated May 12, 1972 — locked Pacino into his return as the infamous mob boss for the sequel. It called for him to be paid $500,000 … a big bump from the $35,000 he made for the first film.

Pacino’s signature, in bold black ink, stands out here … and the document was drafted by Chal Productions and Francis Ford Coppola Productions.

Over a half-century after Pacino signed the deal and earned an Oscar nomination for his performance, the contract ended up on the auction block … and RR Auction tells us it sold this week to the highest bidder for $31,344. That’s a lotta mozzarella!!!

Whoever snatched up Pacino’s ‘Godfather II’ contract wants to remain anonymous, for now — which feels on point for movie mafia memorabilia — but they’re now the proud owner of some ‘Godfather’ franchise history.

By the way … this contract also secured Pacino 10% of the film’s profits — earning him millions on the back end.
