A head of his 85th birthday, Ringo Starr revealed in his interview with The New York Times. Ringo said that he had a detailed sit-down with Sam Mendes, the director of the forthcoming four separate biopics about each member of the Beatles, which will have a look at their lives from individual perspectives.

A Beatle turns 85 on July 7 - and is still as fit as a fiddle. Ringo Starr released a new album a few months ago, tours with his band, and was recently seen on the "Simpsons".

Ringo Starr has claimed the original script of a forthcoming Beatles biopic misrepresented his first marriage.
