Director Tony Scott has been cremated, and his widow will keep his remains at their Los Angeles home.

The information is included on the death certificate of the Top Gun director, who jumped from a bridge into Los Angeles Harbour on August 19.

The document does not include a formal determination of Scott's cause of death. Coroner's officials expect it will take several weeks to finalise their investigation, but they are treating his case as a probable suicide.

Family and close friends gathered over the weekend to honour the British-born director at a private memorial.

His family also announced that they have created a memorial scholarship at the American Film Institute to help future filmmakers and honour his creative legacy.

The last film Scott directed was 2010's Unstoppable.
