Jack Nicholson has admitted that he may have up to 9,000 kids that he doesn't know about yet.

The actor claimed that he has calmed down his lifestyle of late but may have some children from his younger partying days.

He told The Sun: "There could be 9,000 for all I know - I used to live so freely.

"You can’t get too wild these days but I’m as wild as you can get."

Nicholson has four confirmed offspring by three separate women.
