NEW YORK (AP) — The Beatles are getting the big-screen biopic treatment in a Fab Four of movies that will give each band member their own film.
All are to be directed by Sam Mendes.
For the first time, the Beatles are giving full life and music rights to a movie project.
Sony Pictures announced Monday a deal that may dwarf all music biopics that have come before it, with the stories of Paul McCartney, John Lennon, George Harrison and Ringo Starr spread out over a quartet of films.
The films are expected to roll out theatrically in 2027, with the movies potentially coexisting or intersecting in cinemas.
