Apple and Disney+ have announced Beatles ’64, an all-new documentary film from producer Martin Scorsese and director David Tedeschi. It will stream exclusively on Disney+ beginning November 29.

The film captures the moment of The Beatles’ first visit to America and will feature never-before-seen footage of the band and their legions of fans. Beatles ’64 is to include lots of the footage filmed by the famous documentarians Albert and David Maysles, restored in 4K by Peter Jackson’s company, Park Road Post in New Zealand. There will be live performances from The Beatles first American concert at the Washington, DC Coliseum and their Ed Sullivan appearances – demixed by WingNut Films (also a Peter Jackson company). The sound is remixed by Giles Martin.

Given Scorsese and Tedeschi’s success with the George Harrison biographical doco Living In The Material World (from 2011), and Peter Jackson’s Get Back, his multi-part examination of how Let It Be came about, this latest project looks to have a top chance of being brilliant.

Beatles ’64 will of course be supported by the November 22 release of seven American Beatles albums, analog cut for 180-gram audiophile vinyl from their original mono master tapes. They include Meet The Beatles!, The Beatles’ Second Album, A Hard Day’s Night (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), Something New, The Beatles’ Story (2LP), Beatles ’65, and The Early Beatles, available for preorder as a vinyl box set titled The Beatles: 1964 U.S. Albums In Mono. Six of the titles are also available individually.
