What will he do next?
« on: November 27, 2015, 01:53:08 AM »
I know he's a busy guy. Two shows airing at the same time. 5 total films released this year.

But aside from The Young Messiah (which will be a tiny role no doubt), there is nothing else on the horizon.

It has been over a year since he has signed on to a new project.

What kind of project would you like to see him do?

I personally want him to have a really meaty role in a Hollywood film. He is always underused. I spoke with some peers about the Martian who all admire Bean, but they think he should have been cast in Jeff Daniels' role.
I want him to do something that really shows his range as an actor. We only are really getting a taste of that in his television shows, both of which aren't getting much attention.

I wanna read about how all the critics are loving Sean Bean in a big production, and you cannot read a review without his name attached.

I doubt that will happen anytime soon. I still keep hoping (like 'Cash' director Steve Anderson mentioned) that Sean Bean will be like today's Anthony Hopkins (who wasn't really recognized until his Oscar role as Hannibal Lecter).

What happened with the Wonder Woman rumours? Not that I think I really want him to do it.

He would have been the perfect choice for Ares, God of War some years back...but now? He's more suited to Zeus. Even though the The God of War is "older" in the sense that he also romanced Wonder Woman's mother too, because he's a god, he doesn't age - he needs to come across as young, vital, and full of energy that is palatable. With WW who has been cast quite young, he needs to have an automatic chemistry. And as much as I hate to admit this, Sean's just a teeny weensy bit too old to pull that off now without coming across a tad creepy. I know he's a great actor and he could make it work if they didn't cast WW so young...but it's Hollywood and youth rules. Just think, we were all creeped out by the April Summers "thing"...this would be the same if not worse only because we would see it on the big screen and I think it would be box office catastrophe. JMHO.

Sean tends to play safe and I would like to see him tackle some more dramatically demanding roles. Tracey the transvestite showed he could branch out - though I didn't actually think the drama, characterisation or dialogue was that good - and one would like to see him working at some really interesting character roles among his acting peers.

I would just like to see him in some good dramatic roles, not movies full of car chases or shoot outs or a lot of special effects.  The quiet, meaningful dramatic roles such as he had in North Country.  I also really enjoyed him in The Big Empty, so a dark comedy would suit him as well.

Yes, he was so good in North Country.

I would like to see Enemy of Man get made.

I don't think Enemy of Man will ever get made... I've also lost interest. If they actually make it I will be excited, but I no longer care if they do not.

Now that Legends is cancelled and The Frankenstein Chronicles has run its course, The Young Messiah is the only upcoming project he has.

I kind of hope they are still doing The Untamed animated series, that looked promising. Except we haven't heard anything since last March.

The next thing he should do is tape a "Happy Christmas" video for YouTube to all his royal subjects, er I mean fans. ;)

(No disrespect intended to the Queen, but I am a wise cracker - sorry can't help it, and I'd rather hear Sean's voice!)

Holiday Blessings to All.

I've loved Marlott in The Frankenstein Chronicles so much that I wish they would make a series about Anne Perry's William Monk series set in the Victorian era.  And have Sean be William Monk, of course.

The idea of Legends could be transfered to a feature film.

I think this is gotta be one of the longest stretches of time where there has been no talk of him signing on to new projects...

Lets hope that whatever he does next is groundbreaking :P

Does this look legit, or the guy is just promoting himself?
