There’s also 140 hours of audio being released.
The film was recorded from Jan. 2 through Jan. 31, 1969.
It also documents the band's last concert on the rooftop of Apple Records on Jan. 30, 1969. The film was announced on the 50th anniversary of the recording of that concert, Variety reported.
Jackson said in a statement that it is a project "that Beatles fans have long dreamt about," Variety reported.
“Watching John, Paul, George and Ringo work together, creating now-classic songs from scratch, is not only fascinating -- it’s funny, uplifting and surprisingly intimate,” Jackson said.
A release date or name for the documentary has not been released yet, but was done with full cooperation from McCartney, Starr, Yoko Ono and Olivia Harrison, NME reported.
And while the original film was shot on 15mm, Jackson is expected to use a similar technique to process the footage as he did for his World War I documentary "They Shall Never Grow Old," Variety reported.
