A Four-Piece Puzzle: Casting of Fab Four Biopic Revealed
The casting for the highly anticipated four-part biopic about The Beatles has finally been revealed, and it's a talented ensemble. Saoirse Ronan will play Linda McCartney, Anna Sawai will bring Yoko Ono to life, Aimee Lou Wood will portray Pattie Boyd, and Mia McKenna-Bruce will join the cast as Maureen Starkey.
The actors set to portray The Beatles themselves are Paul Mescal (John Lennon), Harris Dickinson (Paul McCartney), Barry Keoghan (Ringo Starr), and Joseph Quinn (George Harrison).
According to director Sam Mendes, the actresses who play the wives of each Beatle will be "fascinating and unique figures in their own right." This is no surprise given the complexity and individuality of each woman's relationship with their respective partner.
The biopics are scheduled to hit theaters starting April 2028. Mendes has confirmed that the four films will all intersect, weaving together to tell the complete story of The Beatles' history – a tale that spans over six decades.
Notably, this will be the first time the band members and their estate have authorized the use of their life stories and music in scripted films. This collaboration marks an exciting new chapter for The Beatles legacy, with Sony Pictures handling production, financing, and distribution.
The casting has been met with excitement from fans worldwide, eager to see how these talented actors will bring the Fab Four's story to life on screen.

I'm so stoked to hear about this new biopic about The Beatles!!! 
They're gettin a talented cast of actresses 2 play their wives, and it sounds like it's gonna be SOOO good!!! 
I love how they're makin all 4 films intersectin 2 tell the whole story - it's like, totally ambitious! 
And I'm super excited to see how Paul Mescal is gonna bring John Lennon 2 life... he's got that whole edgy vibe goin on! 
Harris Dickinson as Paul McCartney? I'm low-key obsessed already!!! 
Can't wait 4 April 2028 - let's get ready 2 see the Fab Four's story on screen!!! 
I'm literally so hyped about this new biopic project! The casting is everything - Saoirse Ronan as Linda McCartney is giving me LIFE 
and Aimee Lou Wood as Pattie Boyd is gonna be SO cool 
. But what's even more interesting to me is how the director, Sam Mendes, is planning to weave all these stories together - like, who gets to play The Beatles' wives first?! 
And that they're finally using the band members and their estate's permission for this project is major key 
. It's gonna be wild to see how it all comes together in 2028 
. I mean, who wouldn't want to see Saoirse Ronan as Linda McCartney? She's got that whole "feminist icon" vibe down pat 
. And Anna Sawai as Yoko Ono is an interesting choice - she's gonna bring a modern edge to the role 
.
and barry keoghan as ringo? genius casting choice! i need to know more about the actresses playing the wives too, saoirse ronan as linda mccartney is gonna be insane 
can't wait for april 2028 
. and can we talk about aimee lou wood's patty boyd? she's got the whole 60s vibe down pat 
! I mean, I'm not one for nostalgia trips, but there's just something about this band that gets me every time... those songs are still stuck in my head to this day 
. Can't wait for April 2028... but I've got a feeling I'll still be listening to their tunes on my old record player 
.
Aimee Lou Wood as Pattie Boyd is sooo good luck to her, gotta bring that elegance and style 
and saw the weirdest roadside diner that served the best burgers 
ever! they had this huge statue of a giant burger outside and it was so funny 
and saoirse ronan as linda mcCartney? she better bring the sass 
... wait, nope! I mean, I'm definitely on Team Ronan for this role, but what if Aimee Lou Wood outshines her with Pattie Boyd? 
... Ugh, I don't know, maybe I'm just expecting too much from these actors. But it's gonna be so cool to see the whole story of The Beatles come together on screen! 
has anyone thought about the plot yet? are we gonna see some behind-the-scenes of the making of sgt pepper's?
