I Read the News This Week: Beatles Headlines Roundup

Deadline: Sam Mendes’ Beatles Production Heading For Abbey Road Shoot Here Comes The Sun (again) to London’s Abbey Road, where Sam Mendes’ anticipated Beatles production will be filming a scene this summer that “involves approximately 80 extras and some vintage vehicles.” Uncut : The Beatles’ most important album might not be the one you think it is History has tended to pass over Help! and its accompanying film as minor works in the Beatles canon, almost a stop-gap between Beatlemania and the far more serious innovation to come on Rubber Soul and Revolver. But while the film’s reputation as a knockabout comic adventure has endured, it has also distracted from what was really happening.

But the ‘sweet FA’ thing is interesting. It’s like he’s thinking, ‘Aren’t we getting away from this kind of song?’” Little Girl is not th...

Saoirse Ronan Shoots Scenes as Linda McCartney for Beatles Biopics

The Daily Mail has published shots of actress Saoirse Ronan as Linda McCartney for the upcoming quartet of Beatles films directed by Sam Mendes. Some of the filming took place near Paul McCartney's London home in St. John's Wood, London. A young actress also was on set, apparently as Linda's daughter Heather (the Mail article misidentifies her as playing the McCartney's daughter, Stella). Paul Mescal also was scene on set as Paul. The four films, one each focused on John, Paul, George and Ringo, are tentatively set for release in spring 2028. The real Linda, Heather and Paul
