Sam Mendes is making four Beatles movies, and yesterday at CinemaCon, the filmmaker confirmed the much-speculated casting! Paul Mescal is playing Paul McCartney, Joseph Quinn will portray George Harrison, Barry Keoghan will star as Ringo Starr, and Harris Dickinson will put his spin on John Lennon. The four stars came out on stage at the Las Vegas-based trade show for cinema operators and bowed in the style that the band popularized in their heyday. All four films will be released theatrically in April 2028. Read more about the films HERE
