Four Beatles Films Planned for Release in April 2028
Sam Mendes is making four films about the Beatles, with each one focused on a different member of the band.
The films are planned for cinema release across April 2028, about a week apart.
Paul Mescal will play Paul McCartney, Harris Dickinson will play John Lennon, Joseph Quinn will play George Harrison and Barry Keoghan will play Ringo Starr.
Producer Pippa Harris said each film can stand alone, but watching all four could give audiences a fuller experience.
The production is on its 180th day of filming.
The team hopes people will see all four films in cinemas, but viewers will not need to watch them on the same day.
Four films about the Beatles are planned for cinema release during April 2028.

What people are saying
The idea at the moment is the films will come out in 2028, and we want people to be able to experience them in the cinema during the same period.
They stand alone as individual stories of each of those four men, but they have a cumulative power, which I think is greater than the sum of their parts.
