Paul Mescal Says He’ll Begin ‘Rationing’ Movies, Hopes ‘Nobody Gets to See Me’ Until 2028 ‘Beatles’ Biopic

After starring in two emotionally driven films in 2025, “Hamnet” and “The History of Sound,” Paul Mescal has vowed to begin “rationing” his upcoming film slate, saying in a Friday interview that he hopes he will neither appear in nor promote any films until the 2028 release of the “The Beatles” movies.

“Once I’ve finished promoting [‘Hamnet’], I hope nobody gets to see me until 2028 when I’m doing the ‘Beatles,'” Mescal said in a Guardian interview alongside his “History of Sound” co-star Josh O’Connor.
