Major Beatles alert — Sam Mendes will direct four different movies from each band member’s perspective … and all of them are apparently supposed to come out the same year.

The Big Announcement

The famed filmmaker, Sam Mendes, has been announced as the director for a massive undertaking in the movie industry. He will be helming four feature-length films, each focused on a different Beatle, including Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, John Lennon, and George Harrison.

Studio Support

Sony is the studio behind this ambitious project. They will finance and distribute these movies. Not only that, but the two living Beatles and the families of the late members are all on board with the project.

Rights and Storytelling

All four members and their estates have granted Sam Mendes and Sony the life and music rights for the respective scripted films. Mendes plans to intertwine all their stories in an intricate web of storytelling to bring the band’s full legendary history to life on the big screen.

Release Plans

The ambitious plan is to release all four films in 2027, which is an unprecedented move in the film industry. The multimedia company the Beatles started, Apple Corps Limited, will also be a partner in producing these movies.

Historical Depiction

This will mark the first time the Beatles, as a collective, are depicted in a film that is not a documentary. In other words, this project aims to be the definitive Beatles biopic(s).

Excitement is building for what promises to be an extraordinary cinematic experience for Beatles fans and movie enthusiasts alike.
