Rowan returns to Bean

Rowan Atkinson returns to the iconic role that made him an international star in "Mr. Bean\'s Holiday."

The character is… well… hard to describe if you haven't already seen him. Think of it as what the Three Stooges might be like if they were invented in Britain. The story for the new movie, 'Bean 2' is said to be set in London this time, instead of America where the first one was set.
Rowan Atkinson is currently out promoting his next film, 'Keeping Mum'. It's a comedy about a pastor so preoccupied with writing the perfect sermon that he doesn't notice his wife is having an affair and his children are troublemakers. Should go over huge in the American Bible Belt.
