Sean Bean: Biography

Sean Bean was born in Sheffield, Yorkshire, Great Britain, on the 17th April, 1959 and is one of our most accomplished actors. A classically trained actor, Sean's portrayal of Boromir, in The Fellowship of The Ring, has finally brought him the international accolade, which he so richly deserves.

Sean was recently to be seen treading the boards in the West End in London, starring as Macbeth, a role he has long coveted. The play was so popular that the run was extended. The first time a Shakespeare play has been extended in The West End!  Sean is currently filming Troy in Mexico.  He plays Odysseus.

Sean is also well know for other international roles - Alec Trevelyan 006, in the Bond Movie Goldeneye, Sean Miller in Patriot Games, Spence in Ronin and Patrick Koster in Don't Say a Word, to name a few.

Sean Bean is a household name in the UK, with roles such as Richard Sharpe, Oliver Mellors from Lady Chatterley, and for the portrayal of Andy McNab in Bravo Two Zero, a small example from many roles Sean has played during his career, roles which he has made uniquely his own.

It's the Gulf War and Andy McNab's (portrayed by Sean Bean) is briefed to locate and destroy mobile Scud missile launchers deep behind enemy lines. As the "heli" lands in complete darkness on the bleakest of terrain, each man is carrying the body weight of a full grown man in equipment.

Within twenty four hours their position is compromised by a young shepherd boy who is trying to keep his flock of goats together. Trying to gain his confidence fails and the boy runs to the nearby enemy positions.

It is after noon and they have not been able to contact base due to a faulty radio. Cut off from base, and facing the worst weather conditions in the area for thirty years, they are in trouble, with two options..... try to make the RV or to try to make it to the Syrian border.

Between them and the RV there will be many enemy patrols, and the border to Syria is a mere 200 KM in steadily worsening weather conditions..............

Bravo Two Zero is their true story, based on Andy McNab's best selling novel of the same name.
