\n\tThe project will mark the first time the band\u2019s Apple Corps Ltd. and the group \u2014 McCartney and Starr and the families of Harrison and Lennon \u2014 have given full access to life story and music rights for a scripted film. \u201cI\u2019m honored to be telling the story of the greatest rock band of all time, and excited to challenge the notion of what constitutes a trip to the movies,\u201d said Mendes in a statement.<\/p>\n

\n\tMendes will direct the four stand-alone theatrical movies \u2014 with each one told from one band member\u2019s point of view \u2014 as well as intersecting to tell the full story of the Fab Four. SPE, which will finance and distribute the movies conceived by Mendes, will share the details of the roll-out, which it promised will be \u201cinnovative and groundbreaking.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThe director\u2019s Neal Street Productions partner, Pippa Harris, added, \u201cWe intend this to be 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. To have\u00a0The Beatles\u2019 and Apple Corps\u2019 blessing to do this is an immense privilege. From our first meeting with Tom Rothman and Elizabeth Gabler, it was clear that they shared both our passion and ambition for this project, and we can\u2019t think of a more perfect home than Sony Pictures.\u201d <\/p>\n

\n\tOne of the most scrutinized and studied groups in popular music history, the Fab Four have been the subjects of hundreds of books and docs, including Peter Jackson\u2019s acclaimed 2021 four-part documentary series, Get Back<\/em>, which incorporated previously unseen and unheard audio and video.<\/p>\n

\n\tApple Corps Ltd. CEO Jeff Jones said the company is \u201cdelighted to collaborate with Sam, Pippa and Julie to explore each Beatle\u2019s unique story and to bring them together in a suitably captivating and innovative way. Sony Pictures\u2019 enthusiastic support, championing the project\u2019s scope and creative vision from the start, has been invaluable for all of us.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
