Maureen Cox, played by McKenna-Bruc, was an early fan of The Beatles who met Ringo Starr at the Cavern Club in 1962. Their romance blossomed quickly, they married in 1965 and had three children together.

Linda Eastman (Ronan) was a celebrated photographer when she met Paul McCartney in 1967.

Japanese artist Yoko Ono (Sawai) met John Lennon at a London exhibition of her work. Although Lennon was married at the time, he was immediately intrigued by Yoko, and the two eventually became inseparable creative partners for the rest of his life.

Pattie Boyd (Wood) was a successful model when in 1964 she met George Harrison on the set of the Beatles movie ‘A Hard Day's Night'. The two began dating and later married, with Boyd sharing Harrison's growing interest in Eastern mysticism.

Starring Harris Dickinson, Barry Keoghan, Paul Mescal and Joseph Quinn, as the legendary singers, the film marks the first time Apple Corps Ltd and The Beatles have granted full life story and music rights for a scripted film.

"The Beatles—A Four-Film Cinematic Event" is a Neal Street production in association with Apple Corps for Sony Pictures. Mendes is producing alongside his Neal Street partner Pippa Harris and Neal Street's Julie Pastor. Alexandra Derbyshire is also producing.

The film is set to release in April of 2028.
