Sam Mendes’ Beatles Biopic Recreates ‘Abbey Road’ Album Cover In Behind-The-Scenes Video — Watch

The Beatles have returned home to Abbey Road as Sam Mendes creates a piece of music history for his upcoming four-part biopic.

This weekend, drone footage circulated on social media from above the set of The Beatles — A Four-Film Cinematic Event, where the director recreated the Abbey Road (1969) album cover at the now iconic crosswalk outside Abbey Road Studios in London.

Paul Mescal, Joseph Quinn, Barry Keoghan and Harris Dickinson could be seen crossing the street multiple times during production in the clip.

Deadline reported last week that production was heading to Abbey Road for a scene that “involves approximately 80 extras and some vintage vehicles.”

Last February, Deadline exclusively revealed that Mendes is set to direct each installment of The Beatles — A Four-Film Cinematic Event, through his Neal Street Productions and Sony Pictures Entertainment. Each film will connect, telling the band’s story from each member’s point of view.

The film has since cast Paul Mescal as Paul McCartney, Joseph Quinn as George Harrison, Barry Keoghan as Ringo Starr and Harris Dickinson as John Lennon.
