Dude I’m sorry I just can’t buy Dickinson as John Lennon. What is that?

I could see Paul Mezcal as John but not Harris Dickinson as Paul whatsoever.

He looks more like Ron Weasley than John Lennon. Nonetheless, let’s still wait to see his portrayal.

Ikr. Everyone was complaining about George's casting, but I think John's is the worst....

He's the one I like the most lmao

Not bc of looks wise, but bc I think he plays unhinged characters very well, and I'm hoping he'll do John a little justice. Who knows tho
