The film chronicles the Fab Four recording their album, 'Let It Be,' before breaking up soon after.
.
Lindsay-Hogg said that when the band split,
it "very much darkened the perception of
the film" when it was originally released.
But when he saw Peter Jackson's work on
'The Beatles: Get Back,' he was motivated
to allow the re-release of his own film.
.
Jackson's Park Road Post Production will remaster original footage for 'Let It Be' as well.
.
AI tools will be used to remaster audio.
Jackson said that he is "absolutely thrilled" about the new project and considers 'Let It Be' and 'Get Back' to be "one epic story, finally completed after five decades.".
The two projects support
and enhance each other, Peter Jackson, via statement.
'Let It Be' is the climax of
'Get Back,' while 'Get Back' provides
a vital missing context for 'Let It Be.'

Michael Lindsay-Hogg was unfailingly
helpful and gracious while I made
'Get Back' and it’s only right that
his original movie has the last
word...looking and sounding
far better than it did in 1970, Peter Jackson, via statement
