The Beatles biopics cast leak: The four stars including two Oscar nominees 'unveiled'
The Beatles biopics directed by Sir Sam Mendes have reportedly cast their four Fab Four stars to play John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr.
Back in February, The Beatles announced that James Bond director Sir Sam Mendes will helm four separate biopics of John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr.
Each scripted movie will be from each of the Fab Four’s perspectives and release across 2027.
Mendes said at the announcement: “I’m honoured to be telling the story of the greatest rock band of all time, and excited to challenge the notion of what constitutes a trip to the movies.”
And now the four actors who will play John, Paul, George and Ringo have reportedly leaked.
According to respected scooper The InSnider, Harris Dickinson will play John Lennon. The 27-year-old English BAFTA nominee is best known for The King’s Man, Triangle of Sadness and The Iron Claw.
Meanwhile, Paul Mescal will reportedly portray Paul McCartney. The 28-year-old Irish actor rose to fame in the BBC’s Normal People before being Oscar-nominated for Aftersun. He is next set to star in Sir Ridley Scott’s Gladiator II later this year.
Disney+ now costs as little as £4.99 a month for the Standard with Ads plan, but members can get 12 months for the price of 10 by paying for a year upfront on the Standard or Premium plans.
Disney+ is the only place to stream epic shows including The Bear and Shōgun, plus blockbuster franchises like Star Wars and Marvel.
Next up is Charlie Rowe, who reportedly has been cast as George Harrison in four Beatles biopics.
The 28-year-old English actor was almost cast as Spider-Man instead of Tom Holland and is best known for his roles in Slow Horses, The Boat That Rocked, Rocketman and Neverland.
And last but certainly not least, Barry Keoghan is set to play Ringo Starr. The 31-year-old Irish Oscar-nominee has an incredible back catalogue of work from Dunkirk, Eternals and The Banshees of Inisherin to Saltburn, Chernobyl and Masters of the Air.
