I hadn't heard any updates about this film in a while, but it's apparently still in the works. From the Blackpool Gazette:
This week, film crews and stars of the big screen descended on Blackpool as the clock was turned back six decades for a Hollywood biopic on the man behind Beatlemania.
Caunce Street was closed to the public on Tuesday (May 9) while crews transformed the road and shop fronts into a bustling Liverpool street scene set in the 50s.
A row of Art Deco-style buildings between Cookson Street and Church Street were used to recreate the Epstein family’s shop, which sold furniture, musical instruments and household appliances.
...The movie is "Midas Man: The Brian Epstein Story" and features British stars Emily Watson, Eddie Marsan and 35-year-old Jacob Fortune-Lloyd (Netflix drama "The Queen’s Gambit," "Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker") in the lead role.
It also stars American chat show host and comedian Jay Leno in the shoes of US television host Ed Sullivan who booked the Beatles to appear for the first time on US television in February 1964.
