Long-Lost Beatles Documentary 'Let It Be' Will Be Released on Disney+

The Big Picture Good news, Beatlemaniacs - the long-lost 1970 documentary Let It Be will finally hit streaming next month. Peter Jackson, who used Let It Be's extensive outtakes to create his own Beatles documentary, Get Back, in 2021, has had the footage restored by his Park Road Post Production team to make it seem more vital than ever. Variety reports that Jackson worked with Michael Lindsay-Hogg, the director of Let It Be, to meticulously restore Let It Be's footage.

This will be the first-ever digital release of the documentary, which was last released on VHS in the 1980s. While Get Back was an eight-hour epic depicting the last gasp of the biggest band of the 1960s, Let It Be is a more stripped-down version, presenting the story of the titular album's recording in a tight 80 minutes.

Why Was 'Let It Be' Locked Away For Forty Years? Close The documentary chronicles the recording of the Beatles' final album, Let It Be, and their final concert, the famous impromptu set on the rooftop of their Apple Corps headquarters in London. It was a famously fractious time for the band, who would break up shortly afterwards.

Over sixty years after they released their debut album, interest in the Beatles remains strong. The next cinematic retelling of the band's story is Midas Man, which will chronicle the short life of their original manager Brian Epstein and wrapped filming last year. Next on the docket is an ambitious four-movie project that will dramatize the life of all four Beatles.
