The Beatles legends John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr will be the subject of a different upcoming feature film. The four separate films will tell the stories of each of them in standalone narratives.
The films will be directed by the Oscar nominated filmmaker Sam Mendes. Sam plans to make four separate movies, one from each Beatles member’s point of view, reports Variety.
They will intersect to “tell the astonishing story of the greatest band in history,” leading up to their 1970 breakup, according to a press release.
Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, and the families of the late John Lennon and George Harrison have granted full life story and music rights for the scripted films.
Sam said in a statement: “I’m honoured to be telling the story of the greatest rock band of all time, and excited to challenge the notion of what constitutes a trip to the movies.”
The four films will be financed and distributed by Sony Pictures Entertainment with preferred release of all of them in 2027. (IANS)
