From 'Nowhere Boy to Yesterday' all The Beatles Biopic - watch

By editorial board on May 10, 2021

The 2009 John Lennon biopic Nowhere Boy is being made into a new stage project, later on Yesterday hit the screens.

Brian and Dayna Lee are fellow producers on the Nowhere Boy project for theater,  The project  is a play with music, featuring Lennon's rock-and-roll hits of the 1950s, but none of the Beatles songs for which he later became known.

The life and legacy of John Lennon has previously played out on Broadway in the original musical Lennon (2005), as well as in the Beatles tribute shows Beatlemania (1977) and Rain (2010). Lennon was also a contributor to the long-running musical Oh! Calcutta! (1969).

 

The film Nowhere Boy, which centers on the two women who largely impacted Lennon's life, starred Aaron Taylor-Johnson as Lennon along with Kristin Scott Thomas as his aunt Mimi Smith and Anne-Marie Duff as his mother, Julia.

Casting, creative team and the announcement of a debut production of the stage production are forthcoming.

‘The Linda McCartney Story’ (2000) 

This unlicensed, made-for-TV movie is so inaccurate that the plot could have been relayed by John Lennon in the ’70s. One particularly memorable, completely made-up scene which takes place during The Beatles’ break-up, features Lennon jumping the gate of the McCartney family home, throwing a rock through the front door window, and shouting “McCartney! Who the hell do you think you are? ”

Yesterday’ (2019)

the screenplay is by Richard Curtis, and Himesh Patel is a very likeable lead. It’s good, and it’s watchable.

‘Two of Us’ (2000) 

Lennon and McCartney, estranged since the break-up of The Beatles, met up in New York in 1976. This much is true. But the resulting film is a fictional account of what they might have talked about, and how they might have reconciled their differences.

‘Backbeat’ (1994)

The Beatles’ hedonistic Hamburg days, and the story of Stuart Sutcliffe.
