Liam Gallagher Confirmed For Beatles Film

The director of an upcoming Beatles biopic has said that Liam Gallagher has been cast in the film.

The Beady Eye frontman will appear in the big screen adaptation of Richard DiLello's book The Longest Cocktail Party, which charts the final days of the Fab Four at their Apple Corps record label.

Michael Winterbottom will helm the project, having previously directed 24 Hour Party People, a 2002 film about the Factory Records label.

He told Contactmusic: "Liam will have a part in it. He's all over it. It's about the mad chaos of Apple, so it's not dissimilar to 24 Hour Party People... I've met him (Gallagher) a few times. He seems like a nice guy."

The Longest Cocktail Party is scheduled for release late in 2012.
