Sam Mendes gave details about The Beatles movies
Mendes did not confirm the order in which the films would be released. He also mentioned that he would take him for more than a year. “They are giving me avatar flashbacks,” Rothman exclaimed jokingly.
Mendes said the Beatles “redefined culture and stayed with you all your life,” and perhaps called them “The most important band of all time”.
“I had been trying to make a movie for years, but I finally gave up” because I felt that “the story was too extensive for a single movie” and that a television series did not seem entirely adequate. “There had to be a way to tell this epic story for a new generation … I assure you that there is still much to explore and I think we find a way to do it.”
The actors then cited “Sgt Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band” And they said: “It is wonderful to be here, it is certainly exciting, they are a lovely audience, we would like to take them home with us.”
The official motto of The Beatles – A cinematographic event of four films is: “Everyone has their own story, but together they are legendary”. Mendes, Pippa Harris and Julie Pastor, from Neal Street, will produce together with Alexandra Derbyshire in association with Apple Corps for Sony Pictures.
