Beatles Biopic Set to Be the First 4 Part ‘Bingeable’ Movie Event – Here’s What You Need to Know
The excitement for the upcoming Beatles biopic is building, and for good reason. Directed by Sam Mendes, this multi-part series will dive into the lives of Paul McCartney, John Lennon, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr, offering a deeper look at each member while celebrating their collective legacy.
The Beatles Movie Logine and Director
Mendes, known for “American Beauty” and “1917”, envisions a four-film series, with each movie dedicated to one of the Beatles. This approach lets fans explore their personal stories while showcasing how each member contributed to the band’s success. Reads the project’s logline, “Each man has his own story, but together they are legendary.” Mendes explained, per Variety, “We need big cinematic events to get people out of the house.” It’s not yet clear whether the films will be released all at once or one each week over the span of a month.
Sony Pictures has dubbed the project “the first binge-able theatrical experience,” suggesting that the films will be interconnected and encourage viewers to experience them as a series. The star-studded cast includes Paul Mescal as Paul McCartney, Harris Dickinson as John Lennon, Joseph Quinn as George Harrison, and Barry Keoghan as Ringo Starr, each chosen for their ability to capture the essence of these iconic figures.
Release Date and Filming
The films are scheduled for release in April 2028, with a year-long filming process to ensure every detail is perfect. Mendes aims to document untold aspects of the Beatles’ lives, including their struggles and creative processes.
The film is also the first to secure the music rights to the Beatles’ vast catalog, including iconic songs like “Hey Jude,” “Come Together,” “Across the Universe,” “A Day in the Life,” and countless others.
This project will use the latest technology in filmmaking, bringing the 1960s to life with stunning visuals and immersive sound. Mendes also plans to engage audiences beyond the theater, offering interactive experiences to connect with fans on a deeper level.
With a release date in 2028, the anticipation continues to grow. These films promise to offer an unforgettable journey into the world of the Beatles, appealing to both longtime fans and new generations. The wait will be worth it.
