Men's Journal: The Beatles – A Four-Film Cinematic Event’ Netflix Release Window Confirmed
Sony’s “Pay-1” licensing deal with Netflix dictates that the streaming service will become the streaming home of Sony Pictures releases, once said film’s theatrical and PVOD (Premium Video on Demand) release periods have finished.
The typical release window from theatrical premiere to Netflix release is approximately 120 days, according to data compiled by What’s on Netflix. Although the film is still very much in the development stages, if The Beatles: A Four-Film Cinematic Event is ready on time for its planned release of April 7, 2028, the films should reach Netflix on Saturday, August 5, 2028 — although the popularity of its theatrical run may alter this date.
Guitar Player: Did John Lennon and Paul McCartney last meet in 1978 over a pizza in New York City?
A friend of John Lennon and Yoko Ono, [Elliot] Mintz has challenged the long-held belief that Lennon and Paul McCartney last met on April 25, 1976. According to that rather sad tale, McCartney turned up unannounced at Lennon’s New York apartment at the Dakota and was turned away by Lennon, who was busy with his son, Sean. Supposedly, the two former musical partners never met again.
Mintz, however, says the two men crossed paths two years later, during the Christmas holiday. And he knows, he says, because John and Yoko invited him over.
“They invite me to Dakota to spend one of the Christmas days with them,” Mintz tells Corgan. “And I go up to the Dakota, and I notice in the living room, there’s a vase with a single branch of a tree. That’s their Christmas decoration.
“I sat down on the white couch in the white living room, and we’re just making small talk,” he goes on. “Then there’s a knock on the door after the intercom. [Lennon] opens it, and Paul and Linda McCartney walk in.”
...“We sat and we talked for a while. It wasn’t overly jubilant. It wasn’t icy. It was just correct,” he says.
Vice: The Wild Story of How the Beatles Tried to Get Mick Jagger Into ‘A Clockwork Orange’
A 1967 letter addressed to the film’s original screenwriter, Terry Southern, reads as follows: “We, the undersigned, do hereby protest with extreme vehemence as well as shattered illusions (in you) the preference of David Hemmings above Mick Jagger in the role of Alex in [A] Clockwork Orange.” For context, Hemmings, an English actor who later appeared in movies like Gladiator and Gangs of New York, was being considered for the lead in the beginning.
You know what’s especially interesting about that letter, though? It was signed by all four members of the Beatles.
