Filming for The Beatles biopics continued on Tuesday as the four leads were spotted out and about in St John’s Wood.
Harris Dickinson (John Lennon), Barry Keoghan (Ringo Starr), Paul Mescal (Paul McCartney) and Joseph Quinn (George Harrison) were seen filming the Sam Mendes films, which will be split into four parts.
Paul, 30, and Barry, 33, were pictured in a Commer PB camper conversion, with the latter flashing two fingers at the camera before he was then seen driving a Jaguar E-Type Series 1, raising his middle finger.
The four biopics will be released next year and are based on each of the members and will be released simultaneously.
Last month the foursome were seen recreating the famous zebra crossing moment at Abbey Road, for the album of the same name as the iconic venue.
The cover photo was taken by Scottish photographer Iain Macmillan, a close friend of John, who was precariously balanced on a ladder in the middle of a road in North London.
Filming for The Beatles biopics continued on Tuesday as the four leads were spotted out and about in St John’s Wood, led by Barry Keoghan making rude gestures.

He only had ten minutes to get his chance, so he had the Fab Four continuously walking back and forth across the now famous crosswalk.
Sam Mendes, who is directing, had wanted to recreate the 1969 cover, but it was reported at the time that Westminster council would not allow filming to take place there.
It was later confirmed to the Daily Mail by the council that filming would continue at the location and that they were working closely with production teams to facilitate filming.
Abbey Road was the penultimate album released by the Beatles, but Let It Be, their final album, was largely recorded before the material on Abbey Road.
The set also included a replica of John’s famous psychedelic Rolls-Royce Phantom V. It is of great importance to the story of the Beatles.
He originally had it painted black, but in 1967 he had it completely transformed: bright yellow with elaborate red, blue, green and gold designs inspired by decorative Romani motifs.
Daniel Hoffmann-Gill was also seen as his character Mal Evans, The Beatles’ main roadie and formerly a bouncer at the Cavern Club.

Brian Epstein hired Mal to assist the band, after which he became indispensable and present on all of The Beatles’ tours and almost all of their recording sessions.
The latest sighting comes after it was reported that Barry threw a tantrum while filming in Stonewall Park in Kent.
Sources told The Daily Mail: ‘He ripped out his Ringo earrings, threw them in a bush and stormed down the driveway. The staff spent a long time fishing through the bushes to find them. That meant that the recordings had to be stopped for a day.’

The outburst comes amid Barry’s withdrawal from public life, which, prompted by a barrage of online hate, left him, he said, “hidden.”
The trolling mainly focused on his appearance and rumors that he cheated on pop sensation Sabrina Carpenter after they dated between 2023 and 2024. He branded the claims as ‘completely untrue’.
In April, he said on the Friends Keep Secrets podcast: “I left Instagram and social profiles. I stopped going to events. I stopped socializing.”
The Beatles biopic has been plagued by controversy, with fans saying the actors look too much like the Fab Four.
