Roman Polanski may pay out a "very, very significant" amount of cash to get bail, according to his lawyer.

The 'Rosemary's Baby' director was taken into custody in Switzerland in September (09) on the request of Los Angeles law officials, who want to extradite the star to the U.S. to face sentencing over his assault on a 13-year-old girl in 1977.

The filmmaker fled to France in 1978 before he could receive his punishment and has never returned to his native America.

Although his victim has called to drop the charges, Polanski has been refused bail twice over worries he is a "flight risk".

However, his legal team is expected to file a new bail offer on Monday.

In an interview with a French radio station, Polanski's lawyer Herve Temime said that the offer will be "very, very significant" and his client will not be "like a fugitive" if he was released from custody, reports Contactmusic. (ANI)
