Upcoming Beatles Biopic Series Set to Premiere in 2027
The legacy of The Beatles is set to take center stage once again with an ambitious biopic series slated for release in 2027. Directed by Academy Award-winning filmmaker Sam Mendes and produced by Sony Pictures, the series aims to delve deep into the lives and individual journeys of John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr.
This multi-part series will explore the band’s meteoric rise to fame, their creative highs and personal struggles, and the profound cultural impact they left on the world. Each episode will focus on a specific member of the band, providing a unique perspective on their contributions to The Beatles and their post-band lives.
While the official cast list remains under wraps, rumors have stirred excitement among fans. Paul Mescal, known for Aftersun, is reportedly in talks to portray Paul McCartney. Harris Dickinson, who recently starred in Triangle of Sadness, is rumored to take on the role of John Lennon. Barry Keoghan is said to be the top contender for Ringo Starr, and both Charlie Rowe and Joseph Quinn are being considered for the part of George Harrison.
Ringo Starr has already weighed in on the rumors, expressing his enthusiasm for Barry Keoghan’s potential involvement. “Barry’s got a great energy,” Starr commented in a recent interview. “It’ll be fun to see what he brings to the role.”
The series will also feature never-before-seen footage and music, with special permissions granted by McCartney, Starr, and the estates of Lennon and Harrison. This marks the first time a dramatic retelling of the band’s story will receive such a high-profile production, with Mendes promising an “intimate yet epic portrayal of The Beatles’ unparalleled journey.”
Fans can expect the first trailer to drop in late 2026, with the series streaming on a major platform. As anticipation builds, this project promises to be a defining moment in the ongoing celebration of The Beatles’ timeless legacy.
