Filmmaker MARTIN SCORSESE is lining up another documentary about a music legend - the Oscar winner has announced plans to make a movie about BOB MARLEY. Scorsese has previously explored the '60s heyday of Bob Dylan's career in No Direction Home and his new Rolling Stones concert film Shine A Light premiered at the Berlin Film Festival in Germany on Thursday (07Feb08). Now the director has signed up to shoot a documentary on reggae legend Marley, who died of cancer in 1981 at the age of 36. Marley's son Ziggy Marley will act as executive producer on the currently-untitled film, which is set for release on 6 February 2010, the 65th anniversary of the Exodus star's birth.
