Sean Bean

Biography

Sean Bean's career since the eighties spans theater, radio, television and movies.

Bean was born in Handsworth, Sheffield, West Riding of Yorkshire, to Rita , where his very presence in the film adds grace and validity to the rest of the movie.

Recently, he did a turn in Shakespeare's "Macbeth," where as the principal lead, he so transfixed the audience that the show was extended in London and critically acclaimed.

Bean, however, remains himself, a man's man, and in the glitzy world of movies this is a rare thing indeed.

Bean resides in London where he enjoys raising his beautiful daughters, his beloved football, and the occasional pint.

Bean has three daughters, Lorna, Molly and Evie.

There are many reasons why a biography might be missing or incomplete. In some cases, individuals are listed or mentioned before a profile has been written. In others, a person may wish to maintain privacy, or their contributions may not yet be fully documented. The absence of a biography does not imply a lack of importance or relevance. Every individual has a unique story, and this section acknowledges that Sean Bean is part of a broader context—even if the details are not yet available.

As more information becomes accessible through official records, publications, or direct input, this biography will be updated to reflect who Sean Bean is and what he brings to his field or role. The intention is to provide an accurate, respectful, and informative profile when the time is right.

Until then, this entry will remain simple and general. It avoids speculation and assumptions, and instead leaves space open for a future version that can properly represent Sean Bean's journey, achievements, and contributions. We look forward to adding more when the opportunity allows.

For now, Sean Bean is acknowledged here without further detail, with the understanding that every person’s story is valuable—even if it hasn’t yet been told.

Country: United Kingdom
Gender: Male
Education: Rotherham College·Royal Academy of Dramatic Art
Place of birth: Handsworth· South Yorkshire
Birth date: 17 April 1959
Nationality: British

Screen Actors Guild Award for Outstanding Performance by a Cast in a Motion Picture

(6 November 1998) Daughter, Evie Natasha born, with Abigail Cruttenden.
He is a devoted follower of the Sheffield United Football Club.
He was a presenter at the 1995 BAFTA Awards.
In a scene midway through Sharpes Honour , 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 down into the water.
Was not the first choice for the role of Richard Sharpe in the Sharpe series; he stepped in when an accident prevented actor Paul McGann from taking the part.
Made his professional stage debut in "Romeo and Juliet" (as Tybalt) at the Watermill Theatre in Newbury, England in 1983.
Appeared in Moby s video for "We Are All Made of Stars".
Was awarded an Honorary Doctorate degree from the University of Sheffield in England in 1997.
He has a "100% BLADE" tattoo on his left shoulder, in honour of his favourite football team, Sheffield United whose nickname is "The Blades". The tattoo is frequently converted (with makeup) into a scar - or a different tattoo - when he is filming.
He has two scars. He got one when he was a child and the other from Harrison Ford while shooting his death scene in Patriot Games .

Sometimes all you need is a big leap of faith.
I put quite a few trees in last autumn. A lot of silver birch and a couple of native trees - just generally doing gardening, putting plants in and hedges in.
006 was such an interesting character and the film really explored his friendship with Bond and how it all went wrong, so it was a very personal journey for both characters.
