Claimed Murray had asked her to lie down on a hotel-room bed so he could try out a massage device called “The Thumper” on her

Bill Murray allegedly paid a female production staffer $100,000 after he was accused of “kissing” and “straddling” her on set — causing the entire film to be abruptly shut down.

The incident allegedly unfolded on the set of “Being Mortal” in April when the 72-year-old star became “sexual” with the anonymous staffer, Puck reported Tuesday.

The “Saturday Night Live” alum allegedly started straddling and kissing the “much younger” woman’s body — and she claimed she was unable to free herself during the ordeal because she was pinned down under his weight.

The accuser claimed Murray later tried to brush off his actions by allegedly insisting he meant to be playful. The woman, however, “interpreted his actions as entirely sexual” and was “horrified.”

Murray’s rep didn’t immediately respond to The Post regarding the bombshell allegations.

The woman had reportedly filed an official complaint over Murray’s behavior and her allegations were backed up by another staffer who apparently witnessed what had happened.

Other witnesses had claimed they had seen Murray try to kiss the woman, but they had both been wearing masks at the time.

Murray and the woman ultimately reached a settlement, which included a $100,000 payment and a nondisclosure agreement.

The woman also allegedly waived her rights to any legal action she may have been able to make against the Searchlight Pictures film studio and Disney.

Page Six revealed in April that production on “Being Mortal” had been suspended because Murray had allegedly been “touchy” with women on set and that a complaint had been made about “inappropriate behavior.”

Searchlight did not give an official reason for why production on the film — directed and written by Aziz Ansari — was halted.

After the film shut down, Murray insisted it was a result of a “difference of opinion.”

“I did something I thought was funny, and it wasn’t taken that way,” he said during an appearance on CNBC. “As of now, we are talking and we are trying to make peace with each other.”

He added: “The world’s different than it was when I was a little kid. Things change, times change.”

A source told Puck that Murray was remorseful — especially because his alleged behavior caused those on set to lose their gigs.

The on-set allegations emerged after Geena Davis opened up about her own not-so-glamorous first experience with Murray ahead of filming “Quick Change” in 1989.

The 66-year-old actress, who detailed the pair’s audition meeting in her upcoming memoir “Dying of Politeness,” claimed Murray had asked her to lie down on a hotel-room bed so he could try out a massage device called “The Thumper” on her.

Davis also claimed Murray later tracked her down in her trailer to scream at her for being late to production. He continued to do so as she rushed to set in front of hundreds of colleagues.

“That was bad,” Davis told the Times of London in an interview promoting the memoir. “The way he behaved at the first meeting . . . I should have walked out of that or profoundly defended myself, in which case I wouldn’t have got the part.

“I could have avoided that treatment if I’d known how to react or what to do during the audition,” she said. “But, you know, I was so nonconfrontational that I just didn’t.”
