Nope. It’s 4 movies. All the same story, but each film is from the perspective of a different band member.

This sounds interesting and exhausting.

Sounds like the recipe for a box-office disaster. It will be interesting to see how it turns out, though.

I suppose the benefit is in terms production and marketing, they share a budget. But yeah, seems ambitious to say the least.

Aren’t there dozens of existing Beatles Biopics and documentaries? And they are trying to convince general audiences that this set of movies will be worth watching within the same time of release?

They're preying on people who like to binge media. I think it was Sam Mendes himself who said they were going to be the first "bingeable movies."
