Martin Scorsese is set to produce a movie based on 'Batman' villain The Joker. According to Deadline, Warner Bros. and DC are in the early stages of putting the 'Batman' spin-off together and it will be the first movie under a new banner which is yet to have been given a name. The Joker has been famously portrayed by Jack Nicholson in the 1989 film 'Batman' and Heath Ledger - who died in January 2008 - in the 2008 film 'The Dark Knight', for which the latter won a posthumous Best Supporting Actor Oscar for his performance.
