Glitter, who was in 2015 sentenced to 16 years in prison, could receive royalties for the film's use of"Rock and Roll Part 2" in a pivotal scene.has now come under fire for using a track by convicted pedophile Gary Glitter on its soundtrack.

Glitter, 75 — real name Paul Gadd — had huge success in the 1970s and 1980s as a star of Britain's glam rock scene, but fell dramatically from grace in the late 1990s after being arrested for downloading child pornography. In 2015, he was found guilty of attempted rape, four counts of indecent assault and one count of having sex with a girl under the age of 13, and sentenced to 16 years in prison.

"Gary Glitter gets royalties for Joker. They're literally paying a paedophile to use his music in a movie about the consequences of child abuse. I'm off the fence - this movie is immoral bullshit," tweeted one critic.
