How to watch Let It Be: stream The Beatles movie online
"Get Back" in the studio with The Beatles in Let It Be
Michael Lindsay-Hogg's Beatles movie Let It Be has not been officially available for decades, but on Wednesday, May 8, you'll be able to stream it from the comfort of your own home.
US: Disney Plus
UK: Disney Plus
AU: Disney Plus
Originally released in 1970, just one month after The Beatles split up, Let It Be brings Beatles fans into the studio and onto the Apple Corps London rooftop to watch as the band (joined by Billy Preston) write and record their final album.
It's been out of circulation for decades, but following Peter Jackson's efforts on The Beatles: Get Back, and with the full support of Lindsay-Hogg, Apple Corps turned to Jackson's Park Road Post Productions team to bring us a full restoration of Let It Be.
The restoration was developed from the original movie's 16mm negative and features audio remastered by the same MAL de-mix technology used on Get Back. In Peter Jackson's words, this new version of Let It Be arrives 'looking and sounding far better than it did in 1970'.
If you're looking to revisit this chapter of music history, here's how to watch Let It Be.
