Meet Barry Keoghan and Paul Mescal, the Irish Lads Bringing The Beatles to Film

Barry Keoghan 77th Cannes International Film Festival, Paul Mescal 77th British Academy Film Awards

Two of Ireland’s rising stars are about to make teenage dreams come true by bringing Beatlemania roaring back to life!

Get ready to twist and shout, because two of Ireland’s hottest actors are about to channel some serious rock star energy. Barry Keoghan and Paul Mescal have landed major roles in an ambitious new Beatles biopic series!

That’s right, the lads will be portraying two of the legendary Fab Four in not one, but four separate films from director Sam Mendes (1917, Skyfall). Each flick will spotlight one iconic Beatle - John, Paul, George, and Ringo. They will be joined by Harris Dickinson and Charlie Rowe.

The 4 ‘BEATLES’ biopics will reportedly star:

• Harris Dickinson as John Lennon
• Paul Mescal as Paul McCartney
• Barry Keoghan as Ringo Starr
• Charlie Rowe as George Harrison

In a first for Apple Corps Ltd. and the Beatles’ families, they’ve granted full rights for these scripted biopics. We’re talking life stories and all the chart-topping music!

Planned for a 2027 release, this cinematic event is basically Beatlemania 2.0. Get ready to relive the magic of the biggest band ever!
