Barry Keoghan to Play Ringo Starr in Sam Mendes' Beatles Films, According to Ringo Himself!

It looks like a rumored piece of information about Barry Keoghan might be true!

Earlier this year, the 32-year-old actor’s name was linked to Sam Mendes‘ Beatles movies. Sam is set to direct four separate movies about the Beatles.
