I used to love Sean Bean. I used to get hot for Sean Bean. Even when he looked rough and tumble, I still wanted to take a tumble with him. But over the past few years… I have to say no. No, I would not hit it. I don’t care if he’s tall and still kind of dirty-sexy and he has an accent. I think Sean might be kind of douchey, rather violent (he might even be a wife-beater), and I’m pretty sure he’s an alcoholic.
These are photos of Sean leaving the Groucho Club last night in London. Note the bloody hand. WENN says that Sean was bloody because he got into a scuffle with the pavement – he fell down as he was coming out of the bar, maybe. But The Mail assumed that Sean actually got into a scuffle with someone IN the bar, and that’s why Sean was speaking to a police officer outside (and also why his friend seems to be leading him away).
Earlier this year he was pictured arriving home with a bloodied hand, and it seems that Sean Bean has found himself in the same painful situation. The 53-year-old actor was spotted leaving the nightclub Groucho on Wednesday night sporting a grazed hand and chin.
It’s thought that Bean had maybe tripped over and injured himself, but he was also seen talking with the Police meaning the accident could have involved someone else too. Wearing a black blazer and dark blue jeans, Bean looked a little worse for wear as he was led out of the celebrity hotspot by a male companion. They were seen talking to the police officer where Bean sported a red graze on his nose.
The Lord of the Rings star then made his way to a car where he clambered inside and proceeded to laugh about the incident. Smiling to himself in the backseat, Bean was seen holding out his hands, which revealed that his right wrist had been bleeding and had a nasty-looking graze on it.
You know what’s awful? This is the kind of guy I tend to go for. I know, I know. It’s a good thing I’m not married, right? At least I know myself that well – I might go to bed with these types of douches, but I will not marry them. Anyway… for those of you who find Sean Bean attractive in a general sense, would your loins be able to overpower your brain? Would you end up going home with this dude?

YES!
Boromir! Again, YES!
edit: OOoooooh, @dooliloo: right, he’s also Ned Stark, too. Wow. Let me repeat it: YES!
Always, Boromir. Always.
You young things who love him as Boromir or Ned are missing something hot, juicy and yummy if you haven’t seen him in Lady Chatterly!
Let me share some goodness with you Sean Bean fans … check out the Sharpe BBC series based on Bernard Cornwell’s novels, filmed in the 90’s. Action, adventure and romance set in the Napoleonic Wars … too much fun! Sean looks incredibly hot in a British uniform, and it’s so satisfying to see him as the lead. Totally yumtastic!!!
@lizzie k yes Sharpe is a must! I own the boxed set of course. Great family fare. I ogle his ass and hubby and sons enjoy the action & adventure.
Ladies take note–though he’s acquired a rep as a womanizer that may not always have been true–Liz Hurley guest starred on a Sharpe and had a love scene with him, described him as very low key, least flirtatious person she could imagine.
Yes!!!! I have the boxed set, too, BSHW … one of the best presents I ever got, because the series is just so much fun! The Sharpe series is, IMHO, an overlooked diamond that deserves a wider distribution in the U.S. For me, anyway, Sean-as-Sharpe makes most of the franchise heroes on our big screens look like wannabes — I’m looking at you, Harrison Ford, Johnny Depp and Matt Damon. It’s no accident Sean stole every scene in LOTR he was in. A fabulous actor who’s a serious hottie … be still, my heart!
@Lizzie
He also looked fantastically sexy in an otherwise horrible tv sequel to Gone With The Wind called “Scarlett” — did you see it?
He played a villanous English lord. I loved it because he rarely has a part where he gets to wear a beautiful 19th century wardrobe and speak with a posh accent. His hair was long and looked gorgeous too.
@BSHW, no I haven’t seen that one. (Can I confess that I really, really dislike Gone With the Wind, or is that heresy?)
But I love everything else I’ve ever seen Sean in, and he will ALWAYS get the price of a ticket out of me … and usually multiple tickets.
I see where someone downthread has gone off to rewatch the Boromir death scene. STILL makes me cry, and I saw it 11 times in the theater and too many to count at home. I never even liked Boromir in the books, but Sean STILL makes me cry for that egomaniac! Now THAT is some acting!
And speaking of gorgeous hair, Sean was even able to look hot in that awful wig Peter Jackson put him in!
It’s hard for me to put aside an actor’s real personality (and violent tendencies), but dear god, I was soooo hot for him in 2001 when LOTR came out. Between Viggo, Sean, and Orlando (sorry, I have elf fetish) I was literally bouncing up and down in my movie theater seat with unease. That much gorgeous shouldn’t be allowed in one film.
@lizzie LOL that wig looked like dirty mop threads! Well, google YouTube Sean bean lord Fenton and check out some pix and footage.
I also liked his hair in Naional Treasure highlighted super blond. Two other more obscure Sean movies — Far North & Ca$h. Ca$h also has early Chris Hemsworth. Great scene of Sean doing Yoga and he had a really rocking body! Especially for a big boozer, and this only came out a couple years ago. Both are very interesting worthwhile movies worth seeing.
@BSHW, thanks for the tips! I will definitely check out the clips and movies you mentioned! I haven’t seen either Ca$h or Far North … I’m psyched!
You’re not gonna believe it but at *this* very moment I’m watching Game of Thrones and Ned Stark is right on my face!!!
He seems like a chap you’d have fun with on a night out! I’d hit it only when he’s sober probably looks better.
Yup. With a gush of cold water — he looks like he needs some.
Hope you won’t mind if I take him home after the bath.
I still have soft spot for the man.
— or, in the shower? My nice big hot steamy shower? Yes, I would. I would close my eyes, and think of Boromir.
I will add, if he fell down, then, I would stop.
@ Micki and Liberty:
Be my guest — he’s all yours :).
I’ve been in love with him since he played the bad guy Sean Miller in Patriot Games with Harrison Ford. Also loved him in The Lord of the Rings.
Once he’s clean and sober for a day; yeah I’ll tap that.
I’d gently lift up his chin have a look at his bumps and say : “one does not simply walk into more doors Sean my dear!”..
I really doubt that those marks are from anything other than falling. That place on your hand, and the mark on his chin are places you’d scrape if you fell and couldn’t quite catch yourself.
But, I mean, maybe someone pushed him too. Who knows.
And yeah, I totally still crush on Sean Bean.
uh, no. he looks like he belongs in a pair of adidas trackies, joggers and a dirty tee, selling crap drugs in a dodgy pub.
^^ Exactly.
After seeing the pictures of SB, I feel exactly like Kaiser does. She literally pulled my response right out of my head in her post.
I have always ADORED Sean Bean. The diamond in the rough sexiness, the deep voice, the sexy accent. I loved him as Ned Stark in GOT. But from the first whisper of abuse or violence against women, the Sean-love died in me. As it would for Liam Neeson, Cumby or Fassy if confirmed reports of violence sufaced about them; the love-fest would be over.
This is why I just CAN’T with the whole disgusting Chris Brown/ Rihanna hot mess. Women should expect a numbers of things from the men they love…but being their punching bag is not one of them. 🙁
Yuck. I ain’t touchin’ that.
+1. Me neither. He’s a good actor, but that’s about it.
I think that is Sean Bean’s baseline..always drunk, bloody,smug and/or really angry.
looks like a bite mark
Sorry, I’d STILL hit it. You KNOW he is good in the sack, even when he’s drunk. I don’t usually go for the bad boys but this one I’d sleep with just for the nostalgia feeling, since I’ve liked him so long. Off to go watch the Sean Bean death reel….
No drunk is good in the sack. That’s just science.
I beg to differ…and yes, I could not say no to Sean Bean, but just once, and then I’d get the heck outta there.
Lolol its science 🙂 I love it. And uh ya Ned Stark, ALL day AND night!
Eau de domestic violence is a powerful anti-aphrodisiac for me. So no.
Smart girl!
Just…NO!
Me neither, I don´t find him sexy and he`s old enough to be my dad.
Yes I would hit it hard. He is my all time fantasy lay. We are going on now for over two decades so I won’t give up on him. All I have to do is remember how he looked in Lady Chatterly, Clarissa, & Caravaggio to get weak at the knees all over again.
However, I would sternly tell him to go to AA or else. I get the feeling he has come unglued since he and Melanie split after 16 years together & Georgina was toxic for him. Plus it’s hard for actors of any sex regarded as hot in their youth to deal with aging, especially in the absence of a stable homelife.
I would. He is pure dirty-sexy. The accent helps him out big time by the way.
I would AFTER I clean his ass up. It’s time for a RDJ type intervention and I am the woman to do it! You know there is an awesome bad boy, fun in the sack with a great sense of humor hiding behind the booze, so it will be my job to get him sober and straight then we can enjoy each other! I wouldn’t be his wife #5 (or would it be #6) though. I think he has some serious fidelity issues whether sober or sloshed.
RDJ intervention my thoughts exactly!
The booze makes his face puffy. DM photos are dreadful. Sobered up he would still look hot in a craggy weathered way cause thank God he at least has not gone in for plastic surgery or Botox!
No, I wouldn’t hit – maybe I would hit him with a stick to keep him away. He’s not looking good anymore and it has nothing to do with his age. He looks rough and smelly. I also think, he is an alcoholic. I used to have such a crush on him… sigh…
NO
Did anyone watch the Sharpe series? Oh my god, he was so, so hot in that. Man in uniform and all.
Yes. Sharpe was great. He is always great. Hot shower a cup of coffee and I totally would.
I hate skinny legs on men..
Ew hell naw!
He’s giving me Russell Crowe circa 2005 vibes. Nope. But I love him on game of thrones.
Yes. I mean seriously it will never happen right? So YES YES YES YES YES
Yes but only in my fantasies with him as Sharpe, various villians (the James Bond one), his character in The Island, Boromir or Ned Stark.
Not good when one’s fantasy male is seemingly revealed to be rather mortal and rather lacking in some pretty important basic qualities 🙁
No he is taller than that 5’10 or 5′ 11.
Nope – a vote for clean cut guys 🙂
He’s actually not tall at all; he’s only like 5’9. Plus, he’s been divorced 4 times! You have to really be trying to mess up 4 marriages.
I loved him as Boromir, but Ned Stark ALWAYS breathed through his mouth.
Nay lass, they just kept getting in t’way of t’footy 😆
(For those of you that don’t speak “Northern”: no, his ex-wives simply kept interfering with his obsessive enjoyment of the beautiful game of football)
I have no idea who this man is. I would have to Google him to find out. Based on these pictures and your description, I would not hit it. I’m not attracted to the addicted, self-absorbed man boys.
I have seen him look pretty sexy in the past. However, that time seems to have gone. I cannot be attracted to a guy who looks like he smells like urine and B.O.! Gross. I need eye bleach. I am going to go look at pictures of Michael Fassbender all drunk, happpy and hilarious to make up for seeing this hot mess.
Always been hot for The Bean – accent, looks, talent, bad boy, etc. Now, as he ages – and probably as I age – not so much. He definitely has some demons that he’s obviously not dealing with – this makes him sad to me.
Of course, I’d hit it with a vengeance. I think he looks fine for 53.
I would jump him.
Then I would drag him to an AA meeting. He’s drinking his career and his life away.
He reminds me of Russell Crowe when he was being a bad boy.
I’d hit that harder than a wildling attack on the Wall, but only after he’s spent a month in a sober tank.
Lol. I miss Ned Stark so much.
@Kaiser — First, thanks for letting me indulge my decades old Bean obsession today. Second, I wish you would not simply accept that he is guilty as charged on the domestic abuse issue. In the two or three reported incidents we know of, there were no charges, the only visible signs of injury were scratches on HIS face, and it is equally plausible she was violent and unstable, especially when drunk. There are many reports of this as well.
It is possible she was the instigator and also that she called the cops on him in other instances to embarrass him and “pay him back”.
I don’t rule out that he has a temper and he is perfectly capable of beating the crap out of her — but it is striking that other than Georgina, none of his others wives ever made any kind of similar allegation, and all are on good terms with him.
As for the last charge — sending “threatening texts” — maybe she was constantly harassing him, maybe bothering his children too, and he texted her to stop or else he would do something horrible But maybe a lot of people in a similar situation might do as well. We just don’t know.
But thank you so much for the post!
He takes his drinking as seriously as he takes his acting.
He is such an amazing actor, but he seriously needs to lay of the booze. And no, I’d be too scared he’d hit back – and not in a good way.
Yes. He is hot. Well, hot mess, but hot.
Outta the park!
I don’t think that’s a smug look on his face, I think that’s just a standard drunk face. And yeah, I’d hit it, but I wouldn’t date it.
He played in “Accused” too! & even then, YES!
Sharpe !
I LOVE Sean Bean, but yeah, he’s an alcoholic and needs an intervention stat. Makes me sad, because he’s really talented :/
I’m gonna have to say no. He looks very much like my dad the older he gets.
I’m going to say this guy is totally my type and he sounds like some of my ex bfs sadly. I would totally fall for his ass. I loved him be in Scarlett, LOTR, and Game of Thrones. And many other movies. Rawr. Sigh. Why does he have to be so handsome and such an ass? Totally would do him.
If he spoke like Ned Stark to me, then yes, I’d hit it. Hard.
Boromir! Ned Stark!
I’d totally hit that. I wouldn’t date it, but I’d hit it. HARD.
So every Chris Brown post has a consensus that he’s an unapologetic woman beater (because he is), but now Sean Bean is getting oodles of love. Things that make you go hmmmmm….
