The Beatles biopic filming continues as Paul Mescal, Harris Dickinson, Joseph Quinn and Barry Keoghan recreate band's iconic 1964 homecoming after A Hard Day's Night premiere

Stars of the upcoming Beatles biopic recreated one of the most unforgettable events of Beatlemania in Liverpool on Saturday. 

The Fab Four – Paul Mescal, Harris Dickinson, Joseph Quinn and Barry Keoghan – filmed The Beatles' triumphant homecoming for the northern premiere of A Hard Day's Night.

The milestone event saw the band return home for the A Hard Day's Night premiere at the Odeon on July 10, 1964, where they were greeted by huge crowds of fans.

More than 3,000 fans waited at Liverpool Speke Airport to welcome them before the band headed to Liverpool Town Hall. 

After a civic reception by the Lord Mayor, the band stood on the building's front balcony to greet an estimated 200,000 fans lining the streets below. 

The crowd filled Castle Street and went all the way back to the Odeon cinema where the film was to be shown later that evening. 

Dressed in black suits and ties, the actors bore a striking resemblance to the band. 

Harris plays John Lennon, while Paul transforms into Paul McCartney. Stranger Things actor Joseph is George Harrison while Barry portrays Ringo Starr in the biopic. 

A Hard Day's Night was a musical comedy film released by the band, who also at the same time dropped a chart-topping studio album and hit single under the same name.

The four biopics are due for release next year and are based on each of the members and set for simultaneous release.

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 image was taken by Scottish photographer Iain Macmillan, a close friend of John, who balanced precariously on a ladder in the middle of the north London road. 

He had just ten minutes to get his shot so he got the Fab Four to walk back and forth continuously over the now famous zebra crossing. 

Sam Mendes, who is directing, had wanted to recreate the 1969 cover, but it was reported at the time Westminster council wouldn't allow filming to take place there.

It was later confirmed to the Daily Mail by the council that filming would go ahead in the location and they were working closely with production teams to facilitate filming.

Abbey Road was the penultimate album released by the Beatles, however Let It Be, their final album, had largely been recorded before the material on Abbey Road.

Also on set was a replica of John's famous psychedelic Rolls-Royce Phantom V. It's hugely significant to the Beatles' story.

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 Romani decorative motifs.

Daniel Hoffmann-Gill was also seen as his character Mal Evans, who was 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 for all of The Beatles' tours and nearly all of their recording sessions.
