Shaun Mark Bean (narozen 17. dubna 1959) je anglický herec. Po absolvování Královské akademie dramatických umění debutoval v roce 1983 v divadelní inscenaci Romeo a Julie. Zachoval si svůj yorkshirský přízvuk a poprvé se prosadil v hlavním vysílacím čase díky roli Richarda Sharpa v seriálu ITV Sharpe, který se původně vysílal v letech 1993-1997. Mezi Beanovy filmové role patří Patriot Games (1992), GoldenEye (1995), Ronin (1998), Neříkej ani slovo (2001), trilogie Pán prstenů (2001-2003), Equilibrium (2002), Národní poklad (2004), Troja (2004), Letecký plán (2005), North Country (2005), Ostrov (2005), Silent Hill (2006), Percy Jackson a Olympané: Zloděj blesku (2010), Černá smrt (2010), Jupiter Ascending (2015) a Marťan (2015). Mezi jeho televizní role patří antologický seriál BBC Accused, Broken, Hra o trůny a historický seriál ITV Henry VIII a Legends. Jako hlasový herec se Bean objevil mimo jiné ve videohrách The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, Sid Meier's Civilization VI a v celovečerních filmech Wolfwalkers a Mumie. Bean je také již více než 20 let hlavním hlasem společnosti O2 a jejích reklam, které původně namluvil v roce 2002. V roce 2022 získal Bean cenu Britské televizní akademie jako hlavní herec ve filmu Čas, dramatu BBC One.

He has two scars. He got one when he was a child and the other from Harrison Ford while shooting his death scene in Vysoká hra patriotů (1992). Ford accidentally hit him with a boat hook. In the Sharpe series, this was emphasised with makeup to add credibility to his character.
His dislike for flying is so intense that he tries to avoid it as much as he can. During the filming of the "Mount Caradhras" scene in Pán prstenů: Společenstvo prstenu (2001), he chose to walk to the top for 2 hours every day. While his fellow cast members were ferried in by helicopter, they could often see him hiking in costume to the shooting site. After having flown back to England when his shoot was over, Peter Jackson conceived of an elaborate flashback scene for which Bean was again required to fly to New Zealand. Unfortunately, the scene was later omitted from the movie, although it was included in the extended DVD edition.
Of his many death scenes, his favorite is Boromir's in Pán prstenů: Společenstvo prstenu (2001), commenting that "you couldn't ask for a more heroic death".
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).
In a scene midway through Sharpe's Honour (1994), 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. Director 'Tom Clegg' liked the scene and kept it for the final cut.
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.
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.
Applied successfully for a grant to study at RADA where he won a Silver Medal and two fencing medals.
Auditioned for the role of James Bond in Dech života (1987). He later played Bond's nemesis Alec Trevelyan in Zlaté oko (1995).
Has played both Mythological Greek hero Odysseus in Trója (2004) and Greek God Zeus in Percy Jackson: Zloděj blesku (2010).
Like fellow countryman Gary Oldman, he started out his career playing villainous characters, only to later distance himself from that on screen image by taking more likable roles like the ones he played in Trója (2004) and North Country (2005).
His fear of flying was cured during the filming of The Lord of the Rings.
Was awarded an Honorary Doctorate degree from the University of Sheffield in England in 1997.
Graduated from the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art (RADA) in London, England.
He is a devoted follower of the Sheffield United Football Club.

Sean Bean has become a source of popular Facebook/Internet memes of his character Boromir in the "Lord Of The Rings" films. The memes always begin with the line "One simply does not..." followed by a humorous quote or reference to something in the news or pop culture. This is based on his line "One does not simply walk into Mordor.".
