He is internationally renowned for his often dark-themed portrayals of neurotic characters, such as The Joker in the [[Tim Burton]] ''[[Batman (film)|Batman]]'' movie and Randle McMurphy in ''[[One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest]]''. Also known for keeping up his career, as he has to approve of the script personally to make the movie and thus often avoiding [[Money, Dear Boy|only doing his roles for the money.]] Also, because Nicholson is a MASSIVE Lakers fan, attending every home game, his shooting schedule has to revolve around the Lakers schedule.
