The Beatles documentary Get Back rakes in £5m for Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr – Irish Mirror Online
New accounts show that The Beatles raked in millions from their Get Back documentary.
The band’s Apple Corps Ltd netted £58.4million in income last year, or £160,000 per day.
The bumper earnings allowed Sir Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr and their bandmates’ widows to pay themselves over £5m each.
The company said it “benefitted from the release of the Get Back documentary” and the stage show Love in Las Vegas, re-opened in 2021.
Apple Corps, set up in 1968, is owned jointly by Sir Paul, Sir Richard Starkey, Yoko Ono Lennon and Olivia Harrison.
The company made a £11.7m pre-tax profit for 2022 compared with £2.8m in the previous year.
Get Back launched on Disney+ in November last year and featured over six hours of restored footage, including The Beatles’ last gig.
