The Beatles: A Four-Film Cinematic Event - From Theaters to Netflix: Release Schedule and Streaming Details
The Beatles are set to have their stories told in four upcoming biopics, focusing on each member of the iconic band: John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr. These films will be directed by Sam Mendes and feature Harris Dickinson, Paul Mescal, Joseph Quinn, and Barry Keoghan portraying the Fab Four. The project, titled The Beatles: A Four-Film Cinematic Event, will offer a unique storytelling approach, with each movie told from the perspective of a different Beatle. The films are scheduled for a theatrical release in April 2028.
Recently, the lead actors were seen recreating the famous Abbey Road album cover, with additional cast members like Saoirse Ronan, Anna Sawai, Daniel Hoffmann-Gill, and James Norton also spotted on set. Following their theatrical run, the biopics will make their way to Netflix, thanks to a streaming deal between Sony Pictures and the platform. The agreement stipulates that Netflix will become the streaming home for Sony Pictures releases after the films have completed their theatrical and PVOD release periods.
According to industry data, the typical timeframe between a film's theatrical premiere and its availability on Netflix is around 120 days. If The Beatles: A Four-Film Cinematic Event sticks to its planned release date of April 7, 2028, viewers can expect to see the movies on Netflix by Saturday, August 5, 2028. However, actor Barry Keoghan, who plays Ringo Starr, has hinted that the films might be released two weeks apart, although this has not been officially confirmed by Sony. The popularity of the movies during their theatrical run could also impact their Netflix release dates.
As fans eagerly anticipate the cinematic event, the prospect of experiencing the Beatles' stories through these biopics promises to be a captivating journey for music enthusiasts and movie buffs alike. Stay tuned for more updates on the release schedule and streaming availability of The Beatles biopics.
