Ridley Scott appears to have confirmed that Paul Mescal will be playing Paul McCartney in Sam Mendes’ upcoming Beatles film series.The four biopic projects were announced in February, with each film to tell the story of the Fab Four from a different band member’s perspective. They will be the first time the Beatles’ estates will have granted full life story and music rights for scripted films and will intersect to “tell the story of the greatest band in history”.The films are set to have a global release in 2027, with producers saying in a statement: “The dating cadence of the films, the details of which will be shared closer to release, will be innovative and groundbreaking”.Although all casting for the films remains unconfirmed, a report in June suggested that Mescal would portray McCartney, while Harris Dickinson would play John Lennon, Barry Keoghan would play Ringo Starr and Charlie Rowe would play George Harrison.Now, Scott, who recently directed Mescal in Gladiator 2, appears to have confirmed the actor’s involvement in the project in a conversation with Christopher Nolan at the Directors Guild Of America on Tuesday (December 10).Nolan asked Scott whether he wanted to work with Mescal again on his upcoming film The Dog Stars.

‘Gladiator II’ DP John Mathieson & Podcaster Fall On Swords For Botched Edits That Insulted Ridley Scott

EXCLUSIVE: A serious case of Thanksgiving indigestion was caused yesterday by caustic comments attributed to Gladiator II cinematographer John Mathieson against the film’s director Ridley Scott on The DocFix Documentary Storytelling Podcast. Today, both the DP and the podcaster today are each eating a bit of crow here on Deadline. Mathieson regrets an interview about his illustrious career done last March whose edit made him seem to savage his director, when a two-hour interview got condensed to 30 minutes. It made it appear Mathieson leveled disparaging comments about Scott, when he was actually talking about the industry in general, but it sounded like he said the director took a “lazy” approach to the epic sequel they did together that has been critically acclaimed and has so far grossed over $300 million worldwide and might finally get Scott that elusive Best Director Oscar.
