While Beatlemania dominates the British games and music industries right now – with EA's Beatles Rock Band going straight in at number four in this week's games charts and the ten remastered original Beatles albums in the top forty - it looks like the Fab Four are also set to get a 3D makeover pretty soon.
Disney is set to remake the classic Beatles movie Yellow Submarine in 3D, incorporating all the original sixteen recordings and tunes from the original animated film.
Disney Studios chairman Dick Cook confirmed that the new 3D Beatles film will be directed by Robert Zemeckis making user of the same 3D motion-capture tech used in movies such as Polar Express.
