<\/p>\n
Sir Ringo Starr has been involved in his biopic<\/p>\n
The 59-year-old filmmaker is working on four separate movies about each member of the iconic band, and Ringo has revealed that he’s been closely involved in the creative process, offering insights into his family life and his relationship with his first wife, Maureen.<\/p>\n
Ringo told the New York Times newspaper: “He had a writer \u2014 very good writer, great reputation, and he wrote it great, but it had nothing to do with Maureen and I. That\u2019s not how we were. I\u2019d say, ‘We would never do that.'”<\/p>\n
Ringo isn’t sure whether Sam will be able to deliver on his promise of delivering all four biopics by 2028.<\/p>\n
He added: “But he\u2019ll do what he\u2019s doing. And I\u2019ll send him peace and love.”<\/p>\n
\nRingo previously revealed that he was “excited” to watch the Beatles biopics.<\/p>\n
\nThe drummer admitted that the director’s ambition of making four separate movies was “madness”, but he was looking forward to seeing the final product.<\/p>\n
\nRingo – who starred in the legendary band alongside John Lennon, Sir Paul McCartney and George Harrison – told People: “I\u2019m excited that [Sam] has taken the madness of making four movies at the same time.”<\/p>\n
\nRingo is curious to see how Sam approaches the project, and the different perspectives he explores.<\/p>\n
\nThe iconic star said: “My life as a lad, John’s life, Paul’s life, George’s life, I mean, it must interact in some way.<\/p>\n
\n“There\u2019ll be Beatles in mine around when I joined, and there\u2019ll be Beatles in Paul\u2019s. We\u2019ll all be there. So I\u2019m excited to see what he does with it.”<\/p>\n
\nSam first announced plans to make the Beatles movies in 2024.<\/p>\n
\nThe acclaimed movie-maker – who is directing all four films – told Deadline at the time: “We went out to Los Angeles just before Christmas to pitch the project, and it\u2019s fair to say we were met with universal enthusiasm.<\/p>\n
\n“The reason Sony stood out from competing offers was down to [Sony\u2019s Tom Rothman and Elizabeth Gabler’s] passion for the idea, and commitment to propelling these films theatrically in an innovative and exciting way.”<\/p>\n
