Ringo Starr praises Barry Keoghan in Beatles biopic: 'I'm in good hands’. Keoghan landed the role of the Beatles star in the four-part Sam Mendes-directed biopic, where he will act alongside Harris Dickinson as John Lennon, Paul Mescal as Paul McCartney and Joseph Quinn as George Harrison. Starr, who celebrated his 86th birthday on 7 July, told TMZ, "We're all excited. He's such a fine actor. I think I'm in good hands. ”He came to the house for a couple of hours one day, and we just hung out like real people, and he took away whatever he took away.” When asked if the drummer thought Keoghan was going to nail it, he answered with an emphatic ‘Yes’. As has been the custom since 2008, the legendary Beatle and his friends gathered in Southern California to head up a global birthday celebration with Starr's catchphrase theme, "Peace and Love”. Starr's social media pages shared videos from all corners of the world, with fans coming together to sing songs and wish him a happy birthday. Last month, the stars of the new series about the Fab Four posed on set in costume as production officially got underway. The films are due to arrive in cinemas in April 2028.
