The upcoming Beatles biopic series has added more big names to its cast. Harris Dickinson, Barry Keoghan, Paul Mescal, and Joseph Quinn will portray the iconic band members.

We now know who will portray four key women connected to these famous musicians.

Okay, so I just heard some awesome casting news! Anna Sawai, who was amazing in Shōgun, is going to play Yoko Ono in a new movie. And get this – Aimee Lou Wood, who I loved in Sex Education and The White Lotus, is going to be Pattie Boyd, who was married to both George Harrison and Eric Clapton! Seriously cool to see who’s playing these iconic figures.

Director Sam Mendes praised Maureen, Linda, Yoko, and Pattie as remarkable individuals, and expressed his excitement that four exceptionally talented actresses have joined the project.

Announcements about who will play Cynthia Lennon, Brian Epstein, George Martin, Ravi Shankar, and other important figures are coming soon.

Dickinson portrays John Lennon, Keoghan is Ringo Starr, Mescal plays McCartney, and Quinn takes on the role of George Harrison.

The band’s story will be told in four separate films, each focusing on the experiences of a different member. All four films are scheduled to be released simultaneously in April 2028.

Director Sam Mendes described the film as a truly immersive, cinematic event, saying it was necessary to create a larger experience to draw audiences back to theaters. He explained the story was simply too expansive to be told in just one film.

Ever since the actors for the upcoming Beatles movie were revealed, people have noticed that most of them don’t really resemble the real band members.

The Beatles — A Four-Film Cinematic Event will be released in April 2028.
