The video for that new Beatles song, Now and Then, was released and filmmaker Peter Jackson said initially that he wanted nothing to do with it. He said Paul and Ringo were insistent and he said new footage was unearthed and it all came together. There's even some unseen early footage donated by Beatles' original drummer, Pete Best. Jackson explained, "Luckily, we found a collection of unseen outtakes in the vault, where The Beatles are relaxed, funny, and rather candid. These become the middle section and we wove the humor into some footage shot in 2023. The result is pretty nutty and provided the video with much-needed balance between the sad and the funny and the old and the new.” Check out the video...
