40. Sean Bean
If you play characters who constantly die and have people get so upset when you do, that means you must be doing something right. And that is definitely the case with Sean Bean. I mean, there are websites dedicated to trying to keep Sean Bean alive in movies.
And he’s just an English actor that we all seem to love. So whether he’s the bad guy in Patriot Games to Boromir in the Lord of the Rings franchise and to even Eddard Stark in Game of Thrones, Sean continues to die.
We’ve been lucky with National Treasure. He didn’t die in that one. But still, it takes a certain level of charisma to evoke this reaction. Many other actors have continued to die in their work but with Sean Bean, we get upset about it. But that’s just because he is just so good at what he does!
And we definitely just want him to survive in movies because he’s such an amazing actor and person. With Sean, he’s charming in interviews because he just smiles and takes everything in his stride. He understands his fans and their dedication to him and it makes him an amazing actor for us all to appreciate.
