While the Rolling Stones get ready for next month’s release of their new live album, No Security, Mick Jagger is busy lining up a pair of new film deals — one of which may become an acting vehicle for the singer, while the other has drawn the interest of director Martin Scorsese. Jagger is co-writing a movie based on his 30 years worth of rock & roll experiences with Scorsese and Rich Cohen, and Scorsese says he eventually wants to direct the picture, according to ‘Variety.' The Stones singer, who was in drag for his last on-screen appearance in “Bent,” the 1997 film about the Nazi persecution of homosexuals, has also just sold the rights to “Swap,” a role-reversal comedy based on the lives of rock stars and roadies.
