In Ronin, they just hurt his feelings


HighlanderM43

Came here for this. By far the worst death was his pride in that one


Azidamadjida

Except for Jupiter Ascending, where his fate is worse than death: being in that film the entire time


Available_Agency_117

This is my favorite Sean Bean death by far


Equivalent-Excuse-80

When I first saw that movie as a kid, I was convince through the whole film, his character was going to come back so he could be killed.


Dyslex999

At the end credits they should have had a note saying “Sean Bean was not harmed in the making of this film” and at the after credit scene, he commits suicide cause his feelings were hurt.


Large_slug_overlord

Dude should have remembered the color of the boathouse at Hereford


Truckeeseamus

He also was ambushed by a cup of coffee!


GBValiant

Hearford?


Large_slug_overlord

Hereford is a city in England that is home to RAF Credenhill which is home to the SAS.


-Roger-The-Shrubber-

I think they meant how Robert DeNiro butchered the pronunciation and the fact Sean Bean didn't correct it before they filmed it. Makes me twitch every time.


Available_Agency_117

Why would Robert deniro know how to pronounce herringbird?


-Roger-The-Shrubber-

He wouldn't, but his British costar should have corrected him!


spikebrennan

What color is the boat house at Hereford?


popsferragamo

How the fuck should I know?


Large_slug_overlord

In case anyone is wondering it’s brown brick with some white and blue trim and sits on the bank of the river Wye.


Subo23

Best thing that ever happened to him. I imagine him reading about the action in the papers in a diner somewhere, and looking over his shoulder….


drunk_raptor

Bet that one hurt the most.


Frank_the_NOOB

What color is the boat house in Hereford


CanyoneroLTDEdition

How the fuck should I know?


rivenshea

I just assumed he was killed offscreen. Seems like the likely outcome in that line of work.


T_at

He's known for dying a lot in movies, but he's not even in the top 10; 10: Mark Hamill - 30 on-screen deaths 9: Bela Lugosi - 36 on-screen deaths 8: Eric Roberts - 38 on-screen deaths =6: Danny Trejo - 41 on-screen deaths =6: Lance Henriksen - 41 on-screen deaths 5: Boris Karloff - 42 on-screen deaths 4: John Hurt - 43 on-screen deaths =2: Vincent Price - 48 on-screen deaths =2: Dennis Hopper - 48 on-screen deaths 1: Christopher Lee - 70 on-screen deaths That's according to [this article](https://movieweb.com/actors-with-most-onscreen-deaths/) anyway.


The_GREAT_Gremlin

Yo, Mark Hamill? Another hidden talent of his


downwarddawg

Hamil and Sean Bean both die in the movie Sushi Girl


two4ruffing

For John Hurt - I wonder if they counted Spaceballs 🤷🏼‍♂️


EntrepreneurPlus7091

Considering he said "not again", my headcanon is that he survived, and then went off to die in spaceballs.


Honeymoomoo

🎶🎶Hello my darlin, hello my honey, hello my ragtime gal…..🎶🎶


TimelessThetaSigma

I’m wondering if they’re counting John Hurt’s Doctor Who regeneration as a death.


Gullible_Skeptic

I've seen other lists that put Trejo at 72 and Lee at 60. Something is off...


KenScaletta

Christopher Lee was technically undead, though.


BlyatUKurac

Apparently Danny Trejo has it in his contract that he has to die if he is playing a bad guy, to show that being bad doesn't pay off. Common Danny Trejo W.


006guiltyspark

One of my favorite actors ever!

FloatingPooSalad

Yeah dude, Patriot Games starts off so much exactly like the book, it was hard to finish


Christoffre

Games where Sean Bean has been killed: * The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, assassinated. * Civilization VI, [shoot down by enemy aircraft](https://youtu.be/5KdE0p2joJw?si=lWM6X9_td2Ru1WL_&t=110). * Hitman 2, [stabbed in the eye with a pencil](https://youtu.be/Un2mSm2YjmY?si=_sMPwPDIvyau8Jj9&t=564) (among other). * Hitman 3 stabbed in the eye with a pencil again (among other).


AKhajiitScholar

Don’t think Martin was assassinated, in fact he was the only surviving one and now I feel like starting up TES IV again :( Edit: he was the only surviving Septim, for a short time lol


[deleted]

Yeah, it was Patrick Stewart who was assassinated. Sean Bean turned into a dragon god, and that's hardly sportin', and then ascended to Aetherius after sacrificing his life to stop Mehrunes Dagon from manifesting himself on Nirn. So he survived but not for that long.


Christoffre

I did actually notice that the voice was different, but I thought it was because the game was old and Sean was younger.


AKhajiitScholar

He still does die in the game though that’s just not him haha


pre_emptiive

Nah bro he turns into a statue of akatosh


crazy_robot_girl

Also Regis Lucis Caelum in Final fantasy 15


Christoffre

Only in the movie I'm afraid. In the game he's voiced by Jim Pirri.


crazy_robot_girl

Still plays him when he dies though lol


Facebook_Algorithm

He did ok in the Sharpe series.


Mikethecastlegeek

Yep, got shot, stabbed and beaten black and blue weekly, but never died.


thejoms

He did fake his death.


Danzard

He also [took a horse hoof to the head](https://youtu.be/1t1KMkr14tU?si=aEMZDJjsbrS5ufMC) and managed to walk away with just a black eye


borgan_malog

now that's soldiering 


EmeraldTerror68

Used up all of his on screen lives. At least that’s my theory.


conch56

This is why I loved The Martian. Sean Bean didn’t die.


WhiskyStandard

Great job acting against type in that one.


dave_a86

Plus he got to be part of Project Elrond.


imtoooldforreddit

His career did though, does that count for anything?


two4ruffing

He looked happier giving golf lessons 🤣


Ok_Culture_3621

My theory is Bean had a karmic debt from playing the lead in Sharpe’s Rifles. Bernard Cornwell characters have a magical ability to survive every major battle of whatever war they happen to be in.


Siege1187

I'm not sure if that's a theory as much as it's just generally accepted fact. I'm sure if you do a tally of on-screen deaths and times Sharpe miraculously survives, it balances out.


Killdebrant

ReallyFineWhine

"Chased off a cliff by a herd of cows." Monty Python's version is much better.

“Which one??”

Sean Bean does Countdown https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zeNbRmI6nC0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p-ceqBKkgIY


DistributionAgile376

Diavolo too died like that.


MakeLimeade

During the filming of Jupiter Ascending, our office was in the same building as the film's office in Chicago. We joked about not getting in the elevator with Sean. I didn't realize just how serious it was. TIL.


Johnny_Sparacino

Ronin was like the only action movie he made it out alive from...and I like to think he was killed offscreen by Scarrsgard as a loose end.


Lizzy_lazarus

It’s the being run off a cliff by cows for me.


TimebombChimp

Also, the Frankenstein chronicles.


hoisinchocolateowl

Possessor uncut definitely had his gnarliest death but it's not on here :(


CdnfaS

Am I the only one around here who knows the past tense of “hang” in this context is “Hanged”?


arie700

He could also have been hung in those movies, but confirming that textually may affect their age ratings.


tiptoemicrobe

Nope


-Roger-The-Shrubber-

No. This one annoys me too!


zyphelion

His penis was so big he died from oxygen starvation to the brain after an erection.


ClancyMopedWeather

Impaled by anchor was my favorite. The finishing touch on ruining an adaptation of a good book.


Southerner_in_OH

You don't see too many Clancy fans around here. I just reread Red Storm Rising a few months ago.


ClancyMopedWeather

I read that one ages ago. The attack on Charles and Diana in **Patriot Games** was a hell of an exciting way to open a book.


Organic_Ad_1739

Caravaggio" (1986): Ranuccio's throat is slit after becoming involved in a love triangle.


GlamityJean

Explosive pen to the eye was a brutal one


Comm1ssionary

Either this is an old graphic or he hasn't died since 2011


Malthus1

Bean had to balance out all the insane surviving he did in the Sharpe series by dying continually thereafter in his career.


gadge87

Now do one of all the injuries he survived in Sharpe!


Solid_Flatus

Equilibrium?


Basic-Pair8908

Film where people are made to suppress emotion but sean was a free thinker and got shot for it.


False-Software-4458

He was only arrested in National Treasure. A societal death.

Made infinitely better by watching at 2x speed


tqmirza

Sean Bean isn’t dying in this scene. *Ding*


Sigurd93

Black Death was the most hardcore, Fellowship the bravest and GOT the most heartbreaking.


eneko8

They really missed the opportunity to title this poster, "Oh My God! Sean's *Bean* Killed!"

"From History Magazine"


LifeAintThatHard

I never truly knew how to pronounce Sean Bean’s name. Is it Sean Bean? Or Sean Bean?


enginenumber93

Neither. It’s Sean Bean.


Danzard

Shawn Bawn


caulpain

the red riding trilogy was one of the first things i watched on Netflix streaming. Andrew Garfield has never been as good lol


InvestigatorSevere72

This is suspiciously specific…Sean Bean made this…


SolidContribution688

r/dataisbeautiful


Tourmaline87

The Frankenstein Chronicles: hanged


Cruseyd

And yet, in the end, he Stood the Test of Time.


Dorrono

Pixels: died inside during production


Kiriotto

Is he alright?


i-promisetobegood-

Guessing we’re counting Snowpiercer as “still alive” ??


jimtrickington

What do we think are the circumstances where he goes by *Mr. Bean*?


harrybalzonya33

In possessor he had one of the most brutal non deaths ever


BaryonHummus

Ah. An actual cool guide.


nothingontv2000

Sean Bean freaking Kills it.


MrPanda663

You won’t believe how many ways he dies in video games…. And somehow he’s keeps coming back.


[deleted]

Equilibrium: shot in the face through a book


Jimisdegimis89

Holy shit I did not realize that was Sean Bean in The Field.


Sayizo

He’s just really good at dying.


Dinopyro

And what can I exactly do with this 'guide'? Perhaps more suited for /rinfographics or /rdataisbeautiful


upfromashes

I was there when we buried him for *Don't Say A Word*.


Frank_the_NOOB

He’s died in more films than many actors have acted total


lrpalomera

There’s one movie in which he’s pulled apart by trailers


acastleofcards

Has anyone figured out how many times he has died in a movie versus how many times he lived?


TheKodachromeMethod

I forgot all abouit The Field, great movie.


Disastrous-Idea-666

Sharpe will never die!


dgrant99

Ronin?


palmmoot

> Lorna Doone: drowned in a mire Damn I didn't know cookies went that hard


lonely-day

Love how in goldeneye he didn't die from the several hundred foot drop


HereIAmNow02

Missing the movie Troy


FewCompany7592

He survived though. He would also have survived the sequel had there been one.


HereIAmNow02

Oh damn, I’m mixing him up with Eric Bana in Troy


paluton

But why he always has to die


ndolphin

Easier to count shows he doesn't die in... Like Sharpe's Rifles


xoswabe21

Beheaded Stark


general_adm_aladdeen

"Oh my God, they killed Sean Bean!" .. "You bastards!"


Potential_Escape4703

Sorry to be a fly in the ointment but he survived numerous assassination attempts, skirmishes, duals and battles in the excellent Sharpe series. That probably cancels out all the demises in the other movies


AllUrHeroesWillBMe2d

We don't know that he died in Far North. He might've come back to the tent.


bexmix42

Got blowed up in Knights of the Zodiac


Atomaurus

He plays such a great villain but I hate seeing him die every time. Legendary actor


LordFckHelmchen

Sean bean dies in the end.


Tard_Wrangler666

Can’t believe Sean got boyonetted! atleast he wasn't girlonetted.


bobbleheadkb

Came here just to make sure Goldeneye was included :)


Late_Virus2869

Makes up for all the shit he survived In sharpe


jimmmydickgun

Yes, now I want to see one of Jeffrey Dean Deadguy


PinkOneHasBeenChosen

Imagine having “died 20 times” on your resume.


Sissy-JJ

He actually dies twice in Goldeneye 🤔


The_GREAT_Gremlin

Sean Bean's best death was when he turned into the freaking dragon god of time and cast Dagon back into Oblivion


x3dturtle

This is a minor point, and I’m not sure it applies to International English, but in British English there is a distinction between hanged (for people) and hung (for objects). Though I suppose you could argue that if he was killed first, his corpse (and object) would be hung. I’m arguing with myself now. Nice graphic though!


Scudss_

Who


NotoriousD4C

Only movie I’ve seen where he doesn’t die is National Treasure


SchwanzTanz666

They didn’t mention his death in Equilibrium?


buzzkill-187

I’m aware that his name is pronounced “Shawn Bean” but why? Couldn’t it be “Shawn Bawn” or “Seen Bean”? His name’s only 1 letter apart 🤷🏻‍♂️


IanFeelKeepinItReel

Red Riding was such an excellent series.


CategoryExact3327

The original script of National Treasure called for him to be eaten by sewer alligator.


Speedhabit

Equilibrium was a great silly movie


AzTaylz

Sean Bean dead a lot…


elasticbrain

Oh how I miss FHM


UngregariousDame

I thought for sure in The Martian, he was going to get killed because every movie he has ever done, killed.


DrDuma

Yah bastard.


ExoticMangoz

And he never died in his best role. Bloody bastards


borisdidnothingwrong

"Stabbed with a rapier." I must've missed that episode of *Clarissa Explains It All.*


asswipesayswha

r/threebeansalad


TimelessThetaSigma

Ironically he survived in the Silent Hill movies.


CurrentSoft9192

Two bags Bean


tony2z22

Me who don’t know celebrities: wow I didn’t know Mr. Bean dies so much in his movies…


Hyperiongame

I guessing Sean Bean is getting tired of dying on screen


-LastActionHero

Ok, while we’re all here. How the fuck did he survive the fall off the antenna in Goldeneye?


take-yo-panties-off

Airborne 1998? Isn't that the rollerblading/inline movie? I don't remember anyone getting shot in that


MannersMaketh_

It's all karma for playing the unkillable Richard Sharp for so long


Sjur1970

I'd actually love to see a comparison between Bean and Kyle Chandler. Most of the things I've seen him in (apart from FNL), he also tends to die off pretty early in the movie/series.


KeyIce2026

He just fell to his death in Goldeneye


RandyMarsh0321

What about when he got ambushed by a cup of coffee in Ronin, he didn’t die in the traditional sense but De Niro killed him off from the group.


Wisco1856

He died in Medici. Bean played Jacopo de' Pazzi who was hanged from the walls of Florence. IRL de' Pazzi's body was dug up from his grave in Santa Croce, thrown in a ditch, dragged through the streets, and propped up at the door of the Palazzo Pazzi, where his head was mockingly used as a door knocker. After that, his body was thrown into the Arno, where it was retrieved by children, hung from a willow tree, flogged, and thrown back into the river.


soul_separately_recs

Don’t forget “Equilibrium” My man C.Bale did him wrong. Shot him while he was reading Yeats. That cold!


wilberfarce

So he was killed by a Welshman in War Requiem?


Rude_Order_9270

It’s always funny to me that he survived Silent Hill
