SEAN ONO LENNON CALLS PAUL McCARTNEY HIS "HERO"

Sean Ono Lennon, 49, has revealed that Paul McCartney has continued to be a significant presence in his life in the years since his father's death in 1980.
"He’s been very kind to me over the years, and he and [his wife] Nancy especially have been very kind," he told.

"And I’m very close with [Paul’s children] Stella and James. James and I did a song together. Mary I love very much as well. Obviously in the ’80s, maybe, there was a bit of tension, but not with me. With me, he’s my hero, man."

Reflecting on his music and legacy, Sean also gave his insight into the upcoming four-movie series about The Beatles by Sam Mendes.

In a first-of-its-kind event, all four Beatles will take centre stage in separate movies about their experiences with the group, with Harris Dickinson taking on the role of John Lennon.

Completing the group are Paul Mescal as McCartney, Barry Keoghan as Ringo Starr, and Joseph Quinn as George Harrison.

The films are currently slated for release in April 2028.

"We are all in touch with Sam. I told him I am not interested in second-guessing his casting choices as a director," Sean explained.

"Would anyone have expected Christian Bale to be a good Dick Cheney? I think that’s the filmmaker’s choice. My interest has more to do with the scripts, and how they intertwine. I have every confidence in Sam and Harris and the rest of the team."
