THE BEATLES Biopic Cast: 4 Fab Stars for 4 Massive Movies

Based on the Nerdist article, here's a summary of the upcoming Beatles biopic project:

• Project Scope: Director Sam Mendes (American Beauty, 1917, Skyfall) is undertaking an ambitious project to create four separate feature films about The Beatles, one from the perspective of each member: John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr.
• Unprecedented Access: In a landmark move, the project has secured the full life story and music rights from Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, and the families of John Lennon and George Harrison (via Apple Corps Ltd.). This is the first time all parties have granted such rights for a scripted feature film project.
• Interconnected Narrative: While each film will focus on an individual Beatle's viewpoint, they are planned to intersect and tell the complete story of the band.
• Studio & Producers: Sony Pictures Entertainment will finance and distribute the films globally. Mendes will direct all four and produce alongside Pippa Harris and Julie Pastor (Neal Street Productions) and Jeff Jones (Apple Corps Ltd.).
• Release Plan: All four films are slated for a theatrical release in 2027. Sony plans an innovative, potentially staggered release strategy for the films within that year.
• Casting: Casting for the roles of the Beatles has not yet been announced.
• Significance: The project is being hailed as a groundbreaking and epic cinematic event due to its unique four-film structure, the unprecedented access granted by the band members and their estates, and the involvement of a high-profile director like Sam Mendes.
