Sam Mendes’ ambitious four-part Beatles biopic has officially announced its cast. At CinemaCon 2025 in Las Vegas, Mendes unveiled the actors playing the Fab Four in his groundbreaking project, which will be released in April 2028.
The Beatles movie cast features Harris Dickinson as John Lennon, Paul Mescal as Paul McCartney, Barry Keoghan as Ringo Starr, and Joseph Quinn as George Harrison. Each film in the series will focus on a different band member, making this a unique approach to storytelling in music biopics.
“We’re not just making one film about The Beatles — we’re making four,” Mendes told the CinemaCon audience. He described the project as “the first binge-able theatrical experience,” aiming to give fans a deeper understanding of the legendary band’s journey.
This marks the first time The Beatles and Apple Corps have officially supported a scripted film about their lives. Mendes, known for 1917 and Skyfall, will direct all four films, ensuring a cohesive cinematic vision.
Sony Pictures chairman Tom Rothman emphasized that this epic undertaking is designed to reignite excitement for theatrical experiences.
With its star-studded cast and unprecedented storytelling format, the Beatles biopic is set to be one of the most anticipated film events of 2028.
