BIOGRAPHY: Sean worked for his father's welding firm before he decided to become an actor. He attended RADA in London and appeared in a number of West End stage productions including RSC's "Fair Maid of the West" (Spencer), (1986) and "Romeo and Juliet" (1987) (Romeo) , as well as "Deathwatch" (Lederer) (1985) at the Young Vic and "Killing the Cat" (Danny) (1990) at the Theatre Upstairs. Sean has three young daughters, Lorna, Molly and Evie.
TRIVIA:
- Made his professional stage debut in Romeo and Juliet (as Tybalt) at the Watermill Theatre in Newbury, England, in 1983.
- He has retained his Sheffield accent.
- Has a younger sister named Lorraine
- In a scene midway through _Sharpe's Honour (1994) (TV)_ (qv), Sharpe and Marquesa Dorada are galloping down a hill on horseback when they suddenly tumble off the horse and land in the middle of a shallow stream. The scene is real; the horse stumbled as it was crossing the stream, sending Bean and co-star 'Alice Krige' (qv) down into the water. Director 'Tom Clegg' liked the scene and kept it for the final cut.
- Says that he took the roles of Boromir and Odysseus because he was "tired of being known as a villainous actor" to American audiences (he says he was tired of playing just bad guys and wanted a change of pace and to play a sympathetic character or two).
- Is a member of the Royal Shakespeare Company (RSC) in Stratford Upon Avon, England, where his credits include 'A Midsummer Nights Dream' and 'King Richard II'.
- He was a presenter at the 1995 BAFTA Awards.
- Graduated from the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art (RADA) in London, England.
