Well, we let it be, and this is reportedly our answer. Barry Keoghan will play Ringo Starr in the upcoming four-part Beatles film series directed by Sam Mendes, which is being sold as a “uniquely thrilling and epic cinematic experience.” The news comes from Starr himself, who was asked by Entertainment Tonight for his thoughts on the Irish actor. “I think he’s great, and I believe he’s somewhere taking drum lessons,” he responded. “And I hope not too many.” A source for Rolling Stone insisted casting decisions for Mendes’s Fab Four have yet to be finalized, so if you choose to charter the yellow submarine of Starr’s gossip, just know it isn’t press-release official just yet. Another name that has been twisting and shouting into the Hollywood rumor abyss is Paul Mescal for Paul McCartney, with Mescal admitting just last week how it would “truly be a dream come true.” But for John and George? And noted stud George Martin? It will all … come together soon.
