Acclaimed director Sam Mendes is set to bring the story of The Beatles to the silver screen in an unprecedented cinematic endeavor. Mendes has cast a quartet of rising stars to portray the legendary band members in four separate films, each narrated from the unique perspective of its respective Beatle.
Harris Dickinson steps into the shoes of John Lennon, while Paul Mescal takes on the role of Paul McCartney. The quiet mystique of George Harrison will be captured by Charlie Rowe, and Barry Keoghan will be cast as Ringo Starr.
Slated for release in 2027, the ambitious project aims to offer an intimate glimpse into the lives and minds of the musicians who changed the face of music forever. Each film will stand alone as a personal account, yet together, they will intersect to "tell the story of the greatest band in history." Mendes's vision is not just to recount The Beatles' journey but to delve deep into the heart of their music, their relationships, and their impact on generations of fans.
