‘The Beatles: Get Back’ is an upcoming three-part documentary series that will be streamed on Disney Channel.
Peter Jackson’s upcoming documentary covers the making of the Beatles’1970 controversial album, ‘Let It Be.’
‘Let It Be’ is the twelfth and final studio album of the English rock band. This studio album was considered to be one of the most controversial rock albums in history.
It is known as Beatles’ break up record as the relationship between the band members was at its lowest when the recording of this album took place.
According to Jackson though foul language was included in the documentary it was not used “in an aggressive or sexual way”.
Each episode of the documentary is about two hours in length.
Talking about the interesting project, Peter Jackson told a radio channel, “We've had to have a discussion with Disney about the swearing. The Beatles are scouse boys and they freely swear but not in an aggressive or sexual way. We got Disney to agree to have swearing, which I think is the first time for a Disney channel. That makes them feel modern, too. Obviously people did swear in the 60s but not when they were being filmed.”
