SEAN BEAN IS RELISHING NEW FILM ROLE (EXPRESS CO. UK)

By Lizzie Catt with Lisa Higgins and Jack Teague


SEAN BEAN is relishing his new role. The burly Yorkshireman, 52, plays an intelligence agent in terrorist film Cleanskin and says he enjoyed feeling super-macho on set when battling against a suicide bomber called Ash, played by young actor Abhin Galeya.

“It’s good fun, especially having fights with Ash. It’s always good fun to have fights. There’s some good violence in there but there’s no wallowing in gore, it’s more an extension of the characters’ raw emotions.” 

And keen to show off his warrior body, heart-throb Sean almost got carried away at the premiere of the film at London’s Mayfair Hotel, asking photographers: “Shall I take my top off?” Rest assured cold towels were provided to ladies in the crowd.
