Geeks Of Doom gives us:
Mark Waters, director of Mean Girls, Freaky Friday, and The Spiderwick Chronicles, is currently in line to helm Get Back, a comedy about two diehard Beatles fans who discover a time machine and use it to travel back in time to change a major event in John Lennon‘s life.
It’s a comedy, and I can see some potential out of it- but only if the “die hard fans” (who most likely won’t be in their 20s) go back to see a concert or two they missed out on, or get an autograph for a collection- and indirectly change things accidentally such as John never meeting Yoko. Then there’s a debate if this is for the better or worse. But as it stands all these two want to do is stop the John-Yoko union, which doesn’t make sense.
Yoko also owns rights to John’s image/likeness, so that also could be a problem. That’s not part of the story; that’s a reality.
So, what do you think? Interested in Get Back’?
