Jay Leno is set to play the iconic television personality Ed Sullivan in an appearance in the upcoming film Midas Man, according to a recent report from Deadline.
Leno — a legendary TV personality himself — will play Sullivan in the upcoming film about Beatles manager Brian Epstein.
The film is currently in production and also stars Jacob Fortune-Lloyd (The Queen’s Gambit) as the manager of the iconic band.
For Leno, his role will include hosting the Beatles on The Ed Sullivan Show, where the real-life band appeared several times, including three in February 1964 that marked some of the earliest performances of the band in front of an American audience.
