Ringo Starr had strong opinions about how he’ll be portrayed in the four upcoming Beatles biopics.

The musician, 84, told The New York Times on Wednesday, July 2 that he spent two days with the director, Sam Mendes, and offered “extensive notes” on the script.

Starr noted that he had feedback surrounding his first wife, Maureen Starkey Tigrett, explaining that the original script didn’t necessarily showcase how they acted in reality.

“He had a writer — very good writer, great reputation, and he wrote it great, but it had nothing to do with Maureen and I,” Starr told the outlet. “That’s not how we were. I’d say, ‘We would never do that.’”

Beatlemania is back! Paul Mescal, Barry Keoghan, Harris Dickinson and Joseph Quinn are officially confirmed to play members of iconic band The Beatles in a quartet of movies directed by Oscar winner Sam Mendes. Sony Pictures announced the news on Monday, March 31, at CinemaCon in Las Vegas and shared the first photo of the […]

The former couple married in 1965 and had three children together: Zak, 59, Jason, 57, and Lee, 54, before divorcing in 1975.

According to The New York Times, Starr is now content with the way he’ll be portrayed onscreen after going through the script line by line and sharing his feedback with Mendes.

In March, it was officially confirmed that actors Paul Mescal, Barry Keoghan, Harris Dickinson and Joseph Quinn were on board to portray the four members of The Beatles in Mendes’ quartet of movies.

Mescal will play Paul McCartney, Dickinson will play John Lennon, Keoghan is set to play Starr and Quinn will play George Harrison. (Lennon was murdered at age 40 in 1980, while Harrison died of cancer at age 58 in 2001.)

Appearing on Jimmy Kimmel Live in May, Keoghan, 32, revealed what it was like to meet Starr as he gears up to portray him onscreen.

The actor told Kimmel, 57, that he met Starr at his home and during the talk show, he divulged how nervous he was during the meeting.

“Yeah, I was… And when I was talking to him I couldn’t look at him,” Keoghan admitted. “I was nervous, like right now. He said, ‘You can look at me.’ And again — you’re playing Ringo Starr. My job is to observe and take in kind of mannerisms and study, but I want to humanize him and bring feelings to him, not just sort of imitate him.”

Meanwhile, Starr previously revealed he was looking forward to the new films being released, which are expected to drop in 2028.

“I’m excited that [Mendes] has taken the madness of making four movies at the same time,” the drummer told People in May.
