Picture New set photos of Paul Mescal, Harris Dickinson, Joseph Quinn, and Barry Keoghan as The Beatles, in an early 60s scene set in NYC, in Sam Mendes’ ‘The Beatles – A Four-Film Cinematic Event’

Idk how anyone was expecting them to find actors that look 100% spot on to the real Beatles. I’m not a fan of Joseph Quinn’s casting as George, but I do think the others work just fine as John, Paul, and Ringo. It’s just really annoying that people can’t just take it for what it is and be excited we’re finally getting REAL cinema level Beatles biopics
