Our beloved '60s band, The Beatles, whose music still resonates across generations, will finally be receiving the biopic treatment. Not just one film, but four theatrical biopics will delve into the lives of each member, offering unique perspectives on their journey from global stardom to their eventual breakup.&nbsp;
Award-winning screenwriters Jez Butterworth (Ford v Ferrari, Spectre), Peter Straughan (Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy, Conclave), and Jack Thorne (Enola Holmes, The Aeronauts) are set to write the scripts for this landmark project, the first-ever officially authorized Beatles biopic.&nbsp;
Who&rsquo;s in the Cast?
Paul Mescal has been cast as Paul McCartney, Harris Dickinson will portray John Lennon, Joseph Quinn will take on the role of George Harrison, and Barry Keoghan will appear as Ringo Starr. Each actor will vividly bring to life the personal and creative journeys of these iconic figures, capturing their highs, lows, and the bond that transformed music forever.
Mendes expressed his excitement, stating, &ldquo;We need big cinematic events to get people out of the house.&rdquo;
What Will the Films Explore?
Each film will show the story of the Beatles from the perspective of one member. Viewers will experience their journey from humble beginnings to great success, as well as the tensions that led to their breakup in 1970. This approach offers a close look at the personal and creative factors that influenced the band. All four films will be released in theaters in April 2028.
Will Beatles Songs Be Featured?
Unlike previous Beatles-inspired movies like "Yesterday" or "Nowhere Boy", which lacked full music rights, these films are officially backed by Apple Corps, the Beatles&rsquo; label. This means the filmmakers have secured the rights to use both the band&rsquo;s life stories and original music, though the specific songs featured are still under wraps.
A Brief Look Back at the Beatles&rsquo; Breakup
The Beatles broke up mainly due to creative differences, especially between John Lennon and Paul McCartney. George Harrison often felt excluded, and Yoko Ono's presence during recording sessions increased the tension. The loss of their manager, Brian Epstein, also played a role in their conflict. The band members were tired of fame and wanted to grow personally, which led them to drift apart. This separation ended with Paul&rsquo;s public announcement in 1970, marking the end of the group.

The Beatles are more than a band; they are a major part of our culture. Even if you weren&rsquo;t alive when they were most popular, their music and stories have had a big impact on music history. Watching their journey through four different films, each showing a band member&rsquo;s view, will be an exciting experience for both longtime fans and new listeners.
