Uma Thurman's ex-fiancé Arpad Busson is trying to stop the actress from seeing her daughter Luna while she films a new movie, a new report is claiming.

The French financier has apparently filed legal documents to ask a judge to prohibit the Kill Bill star from taking four-year-old Luna to Europe with her during the shoot.

According to TMZ's sources the latest development has blindsided Uma as she's supposedly set to travel in two days.

Tough decision: Uma Thurman's ex-fiancé Arpad Busson is apparently trying to stop the actress taking her four-year--old daughter Luna to Europe with her while she films a new movie

Arpad has requested that their daughter stay in New York, posing a difficult choice for the 46-year-old actress.

Uma and Arpad will be heading to court in the next couple of months amid their ongoing custody battle over their daughter. 

Earlier this month is was claimed that Uma is set to fight her ex on visitation time with Luna which he wants more of.

Sources told TMZ: 'When she and Arpad head to court in a few months, Uma will argue he cancels his scheduled time to see her '7 times out of 10'.

'Arpad is the one who's asking the judge for more time, but the sources say these are just 'tactics.'

'Our sources say he gets a significant amount of custodial time currently, yet doesn't come close to taking advantage of it.'

Uma apparently wants to co-parent with Arpad but a lot of the time she has to arrange a nanny to take the child to London or the Bahamas where he lives.

The insider added 'he won't take the time to pick her up.' 

Arpad has demanded more visitation with the couple’s daughter, less than a year after they reached an initial settlement over the custody of their child.

Arpad filed a motion for temporary visitation rights on August 31. He first filed a custody lawsuit against Thurman in New York in 2014.

The former couple are set to face off in Manhattan Supreme Court by December, according to Page Six. 

Arpad has had a rocky relationship with Uma since they first started dating in 2007. 

The investor and actress were originally set to be married in 2009, but the wedding was called off, and Thurman returned her eight-carat diamond ring.

In 2011, the couple reconciled and shortly thereafter Thurman became pregnant with their daughter, who she gave birth to in 2012.

Uma and Arpad then were set to get married again, but the actress called off the engagement and the couple again parted ways.

Shortly following their breakup, Arpad slapped Uma with a lawsuit demanding more custody of their daughter. He also demanded the power to make important life decisions for their daughter.

Uma's representative released a statement after the lawsuit was filed: ‘It is unfortunate that this very private discussion regarding Mr. Busson's visitation rights and his participation in decision making has been made public.

In 2015, Thurman, who often posts loving photos with her daughter on Instagram (above), and Busson signed a three-year plan on how they agreed to co-parent their daughter

‘However, we are optimistic that a fair agreement for both sides will be reached out of court.’

In September 2015, the couple finally reached a settlement, and the judge praised them for putting aside their issues aside for the benefit of their daughter.

At the time, the judge was quoted saying both parties had compromised very little to reach the settlement.

The terms of the deal, however, were sealed from the public and the terms remain confidential.

It was reported at the time that Uma and Arpad signed a three-year plan on how they agreed to co-parent their daughter.

But after Busson headed back to court on August 31, it appears that he wants more custody.

After being engaged twice and splitting after Thurman gave birth to their daughter, the couple (pictured together in 2009) went to court to battle for custody of their young daughter

He filed a Pendente Lite Visitation, which is usually only filed during an on-going battle, with one person seeking to have the judge award temporary visitation until the outcome of the case.

Once the final order on custody and support is issued by the judge, the temporary decision is voided.

It is unclear why he filed for temporary visitation rights if the couple reached a settlement last year.
