Just a guess, but they have approval for the music. They might even plan on using the music in the Dark Tower movie, and thus have the rights for promotional usage also.
So... did anyone notice hidden stuff at sombra or ncp like this qr code at big coffin?

Not sure the reference, but the TV Guide magazine on the couch/seat in NCP is the May 30th, 1959 edition with Steve McQueen on the cover "Wanted Dead or Alive"

I would love to hear Paint It Black as the credits roll. One of the most perfect credits songs.
All I know is that Hey Jude HAS to be a part of this movie!!

While I'd love to see "Hey, Jude" as a continuing part of the movie's musical background, I don't think that's going to happen.
There's a book about the whole saga of the Lennon/McCartney catalog, "Northern Songs: The True Story of the Beatles Publishing Empire," which goes into detail concerning who owns what percentage of the catalog, how Lennon and McCartney lost ownership of it, and how it got sold to Lew Grade at ATV and then Michael Jackson, and then Sony, which owns it now. Currently, getting permission for a Beatles song -- particularly performed by a Beatle, (in the case of Hey, Jude, Paul) but also a cover is complicated and immensely expensive.
Not only does Sony have to approve it -- and they receive thousands of requests a year, over 90% of which they turn down -- it also has to notify and possibly get approval from Apple, which means approval from from Paul, Ringo, Yoko and Olivia Harrison. A veto from any one of those four could sink a request. After Yoko unilaterally approved the use of "Revolution" for a Nike commercial, everyone agreed that no Beatles song, sung by a Beatle, would ever be used again to sell a non-Apple affiliated product, although they have used covers to sell products.
If they have the characters singing "Hey, Jude" in the movie, like in the book, where Roland hears it as they approach Tull, it would certainly be cheaper than using the actual Beatles recording, but still very expensive; and the movie producers might not want to drop so much money to use the rights for a song simply to provide atmosphere. It is possible -- the Minions movie last year included "Got to Get You Into My Life," from the Revolver album, over the final credits -- but I don't know how much the movie producers had to pay for that song. I'm keeping my fingers crossed on their getting the rights to "Hey, Jude," but I just dont' see it happening.

Hopefully the passage of time leads those parties to a) have mellowed beyond inflexibility and b) see the value in reintroducing an old classic to a new audience in a new context (and DT ain't a pair of sneakers).
Does anyone expect Velcro Fly to be an issue?
When they said how many dollars it would cost, I was amazed at how badly they'd overvalued it - then I realized they'd overvalued the dollars as well.
Oh, I agree that because Sony owns the catalog, they have a significant 'in.' But there were instances in the book which discussed other Sony projects which requested the use of Beatles songs and were turned down; unfortunately, I can't think any specific examples at the moment. There's an entire team of people at Sony whose only job is approve/reject requests for the use of Beatles songs, a task which they evidently take very seriously and, as I said, approve less than 10% of the requests they receive. And Apple has to approve it as well. Any one of the Beatles (or, as I said, Olivia Harrison or Yoko Ono) can reject the request. For example, Sony can't use any Beatles music -- cover or recording -- to sell any meat product, given Paul's well-known vegetarian stance. If any one of the four object to any aspect of the movie, there goes the chance for "Hey, Jude."

The "Mad Men" issue is a bit different, since its a T.V. show and not a movie, but this article does make it clear just how many hurdles you have to jump through, with both Sony and Apple, to get a Beatles song -- as performed by a Beatle -- approved.

Again, I hope they do get "Hey, Jude" and since they would presumably do it as a cover -- with the actors and actresses singing it, rather than the Paul/Beatles version -- it would be cheaper. I just don't think it will be easy, given the numerous protective layers around Beatles music.
Good ol' US copyright law. It can be rather labyrinthian and draconian when the need arises .
So long as Velcro Fly, Someone Saved My Life Tonight, and Paint It Black are in it, I think I'll be good.
