Director Martin Scorsese is working on a documentary about The Rolling Stones.

Scorsese will film The Stones' upcoming New York City gigs at The Beacon Theatre between October 29 and 31.

It is not clear if the documentary will encompass the entire history of The Rolling Stones or just their current A Bigger Bang tour.

Scorsese's last foray into rock documentaries was the acclaimed Bob Dylan documentary 'No Direction Home'.

The Stones have made one career retrospective film, 1989's '25X5'.
