One of the things that has kept everyone eager about the project is the cast, and recently the names of those who could bring the "Fab Four" to life have been revealed. So far, several names of young and talented British actors have been pointed out as the chosen ones to portray the Beatles.
Who will be the four Beatles in Sam Mendes' movies? We tell you everything
Paul Mescal as Paul McCartney: Irish actor Paul Mescal, known for his work in the acclaimed series "Normal People" and his leading role in the highly anticipated "Gladiator 2," is one of the strongest names in the project. His talent and charisma make him an excellent choice to play the charming Paul McCartney, a role that will surely require capturing both his musical sensitivity and his iconic personality.
Harris Dickinson as John Lennon: Another young talent making a name for himself is Harris Dickinson, a British actor who has stood out in films like "The King's Man" and "Triangle of Sadness". Dickinson, with his presence and ability for complex roles, could be the ideal choice to portray John Lennon, the intellectual and charismatic leader of the quartet. His challenge will be to embody Lennon's intensity and rebellious spirit without losing his humanity.
Barry Keoghan as Ringo Starr: The possible inclusion of Barry Keoghan, Oscar-nominated for "The Banshees of Inisherin", has excited both critics and audiences. Even Ringo Starr himself would have given his approval to the Irish actor. Keoghan, known for his versatility and talent for unique and quirky characters, seems like the perfect choice to capture Starr's relaxed humor and warmth.
Joseph Quinn as George Harrison: The latest addition to the cast would be Joseph Quinn, who rose to fame as Eddie Munson in “Stranger Things”. Quinn not only has acting experience, but also guitar skills, making him perfect to portray George Harrison, the most introspective and spiritual Beatle of the group.
