The rumors regarding the casting of Sam Mendes<\/strong>\u2019 four Beatles <\/strong>films continues, with <\/span>Deadline<\/strong><\/span><\/a>\u00a0now reporting\u00a0<\/span>Stranger Things<\/span><\/em>\u00a0actor\u00a0Joseph Quinn<\/strong> will play George Harrison<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n

And it sounds like he\u2019s getting ready for the part, with Deadline citing sources in Europe who claim Quinn\u2019s been spotted with a guitar while overseas filming his role of Human Torch in the new <\/span>Fantastic Four<\/span><\/em> movie.<\/span>\u00a0<\/p>\n

Quinn is no stranger to the guitar, or at least acting like he knows how to play one.\u00a0His character Eddie Munson\u00a0memorably played Metallica<\/strong>\u2019s \u201cMaster of Puppets\u201d in the season\u00a04 finale of <\/span>Stranger Things<\/span><\/em>.<\/span>\u00a0<\/p>\n

Quinn most recently starred in Ridley Scott<\/strong>\u2019s <\/span>Gladiator II<\/span><\/em>, and if the casting rumor is true, he will be the second star from that movie rumored to be in the Beatles films. On Tuesday,\u00a0<\/span>Gladiator II<\/span><\/em>\u00a0director Ridley Scott<\/strong> let it slip that Paul Mescal<\/strong> is attached to the project; he\u2019s rumored to be playing Paul McCartney<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n

As for the rest of the band,\u00a0<\/span>Ringo Starr<\/strong> recently let it slip in an\u00a0<\/span>Entertainment Tonight<\/strong><\/span><\/em><\/a>\u00a0interview that\u00a0Barry Keoghan\u00a0<\/strong>had been cast to play him.<\/span> Plus, <\/span>Babygirl<\/span><\/em> actor Harris Dickinson<\/strong> has been mentioned as a possible candidate to play John Lennon<\/strong>. When asked about it on the red carpet for the <\/span>Babygirl<\/span><\/em> premiere, he played coy, telling\u00a0<\/span>Variety<\/strong><\/span><\/em><\/a> \u201cwe\u2019ll see.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

So far there has been no official announcement about the casting of the films.<\/span>\u00a0<\/p>\n

Mendes\u2019 Beatles project was announced back in February, with the director revealing he planned to make four separate films, one for each member of the group. Sony Pictures is the studio behind the movies, and it marks the first time Apple Corps Ltd. and The Beatles have granted a studio the rights to the life stories of the band members and their legendary catalog of music.<\/span><\/p>\n
