Mendes is planning to tell the astonishing story of the greatest band in history—and one film won’t be enough to get things done. According to his production partner Pippa Harris, they’re plotting “a uniquely thrilling, and epic cinematic experience: four films, told from four different perspectives which tell a single story about the most celebrated band of all time.”

They found a perfect partner in crime in Sony Pictures Entertainment, and their CEO Tom Rothman promises this project “will rock audiences all over the globe”. They’re planning to release all four films theatrically in 2027, and their rollout strategy for this cinematic event has been described as “innovative and groundbreaking”.

The Beatles recorded music together between 1960 and 1970 and became a true sensation all around the globe before going their separate ways. With an estimated 600 million records sold online, they’re one of the best-selling music acts of all time, and many artists have cited them as their main influence over the course of the past five decades.

Months after the film’s initial release, Sir Paul McCartney has revealed that he was not impressed by the idea and declined the opportunity to watch a premiere screening. Now, he has confessed that he eventually did go and see the movie. And he loved it.

“That began when Richard Curtis, who [directed] Love Actually, wrote to me with the idea. And I thought, ‘This is a terrible idea’, but I couldn’t tell him, so I said, ‘Well, that sounds interesting – good luck,’” the Beatle told Billboard.

“I didn’t think anything more of it. Then someone said Danny Boyle would direct it, and I thought, ‘They must think they can pull it off.’ And I thought nothing more of it until they asked if I wanted to see a screening. I asked Nancy, and we said, ‘Let’s go, you and me, on a date to the cinema’.”

The couple then snuck into the cinema anonymously, hoping that no one would catch them.

He recalled: “We were in the Hamptons in the summer and there it was, so we got two tickets and walked in when the cinema went dark. Only a couple of people saw us. We were in the back row, giggling away, especially at all the mentions of Paul McCartney. A couple of people in front of us spotted us, but everyone else was watching the film. We loved it.”

Almost 50 years since The Beatles went their separate ways, Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr have recorded a song together.

And what more, the song was written by another of their friends and former band mates, John Lennon.

“I just loved this song. I sang it the best that I could. I do well up when I think of John this deeply. And I’ve done my best. We’ve done our best,” Ringo said of the track “Grow Old with Me,” which will feature on his upcoming album What’s My Name.

“The other good thing is that I really wanted Paul to play on it, and he said yes. Paul came over and he played bass and sings a little bit on this with me. So John’s on it in a way. I’m on it and Paul’s on it. It’s not a publicity stunt. This is just what I wanted. And the strings that Jack [Douglas] arranged for this track, if you really listen, they do one line from ‘Here Comes The Sun.’ So in a way, it’s the four of us.”

What’s My Name is out on October 25th.

The two are the only surviving members of The Beatles, which is still considered one of the greatest bands of all time.

Paul is currently performing in North America as part of his Freshen Up tour. While in Los Angeles, an old friend pitched up at the concert at Dodgers Stadium in Los Angeles.

“We’ve got a surprise for us, a surprise for you, a surprise for everyone: Ladies and gentlemen, the one and only, Ringo Starr,” Paul told the crowd who responded with cheers.

The pair then played some of The Beatles’ classics including “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band (Reprise)” and “Helter Skelter”.

The last time that Paul and Ringo performed together at that venue was with John Lennon and George Harrison in 1966 as part of The Beatles’ penultimate tour.

It was nice to have them come together.

And one such occasion was during his show at London’s famous O2 Arena.

The former Beatle was joined by his fellow bandmate Ringo Starr in what turned out to be a mini-reunion on stage.

In addition, the pair found were accompanied by Ronnie Wood of The Rolling Stones as they all performed Get Back which The Beatles recorded in 1969.

Ringo returned to his drums, while Paul and Ronnie both played guitar.

We’re so happy they got back to where they still belong!

After announcing a month ago that he will be releasing new music in five years with a 17th solo album titled Egypt Station and an incredible guest spot on James Corden’s Carpool Karaoke, the former Beatle surprised fans Monday when he paid a visit to a particular road in London. 

The 76-year-old music sensation was spotted reenacting the famous Abbey Road crossing from the group’s 1969 album, The Beatles. 

McCartney retook the now historic walk across Abbey Lane, just as he did with fellow Beatles George Harrison, Ringo Starr and John Lennon almost fifty years ago. 

Lucky for fans McCartney’s daughter Mary was there to film the historic do-over. McCartney posted the nostalgia-filled video to his Instagram account where he’s also seen striking a pose mid-crossing much to the crowd’s delight. 

This time around McCartney was clad in maroon pants, a white button-up and a blazer slung over his shoulder, and unlike in the original, he also opted for some footwear. 

Now that’s what you call a walk down memory lane!

The Chicago rapper has accomplished a pretty impressive feat by tying a record held by The Beatles for the longest streak of albums to hit number one.

Kanye’s 8th studio album, Ye, was released on the 1st of June and went straight to number one on the Billboard 200.

The occurrence meant that the 41-year-old now holds the same record as the Fab Four, as well as fellow rapper Eminem, who have all notched up 8 consecutive number one albums.

During Ye’s first week, it already sold 208,000 album units — 85,000 of which were traditional albums as opposed to digital downloads.

So far, Kanye has 4 number one Billboard hits under his belt, compared to The Beatles’ 19.

If there’s anyone determined enough to try… it’s definitely Kanye.

According to Deadline, the musician could be involved in the new comedy/musical from director Danny Boyle.

Although not much as been revealed about the project as yet, it is believed to be set in a universe where The Beatles never existed (Help!) and has tentatively been titled All You Need is Love.

The release date has also been announced as September 13th, 2019.

The Oscar-winning director will be at the helm, while Love, Actually screenwriter Richard Curtis will pen the script. Cinderella actress Lily James, Himesh Patel of Eastenders, and Kate McKinnon from Saturday Night Live are expected to star.

Ed is known as a huge fan of the Fab Four and is said to be making an onscreen cameo in the film (check out Game of Thrones or Bridget Jones’ Baby if you want proof of his acting skills), as well as contribute to the film’s soundtrack.

Sounds like just another “Day in the Life” for the “Shape of You” singer.
