Sir Paul McCartney has been seen filming with actor Paul Mescal in London, ahead of Mescal portraying the Beatles legend in upcoming biopics. The pair were photographed at the Regency Cafe in Westminster, with Mescal carrying a notepad and both appearing in good spirits.
Mescal, known for his roles in Normal People and Gladiator II, is set to play McCartney in four separate films directed by Sam Mendes, each focusing on a different member of the Fab Four. The films are scheduled for release in April 2028 by Sony Pictures.
The documentary being filmed remains unconfirmed, but it is likely to involve conversations about McCartney's life. This follows the recent Prime Video release of Paul McCartney Man On The Run, which explores his post-Beatles career.
Mescal previously expressed his disbelief at the opportunity, telling IndieWire: “To spend any time — it’s a crazy sentence to say that I’ve spent time with that man, let alone play him.”
