Beatles Unveil Expanded Anthology Reissues With New Episode Nine

The Beatles will launch a comprehensive reissue campaign this fall, marking the return of the Anthology project with a new edition that combines a remastered documentary, a fresh music collection, and a refreshed companion book. The plan centers on a nine-part Disney+ documentary, expanded with a brand-new Episode Nine, alongside Anthology 4, a music box set featuring 13 previously unreleased tracks, and a 25th anniversary edition of the Anthology book. The rollout is scheduled to unfold across multiple formats, including streaming, vinyl, CD, and digital editions, beginning in late November.

The revival builds on the original Anthology, a landmark 1995–1996 project that paired three double albums of archival material with an accompanying documentary series and a 2000 book. The new cycle preserves the core concept—sharing the Beatles’ story directly through the band members’ own voices and rare footage—while expanding the music catalog and restoring the visual material with modern production. The project is being shepherded by Apple Corps and Peter Jackson’s Wingnut Films team, with Giles Martin delivering new audio mixes that bring fresh clarity to much of the existing material.
