Do you count the Sharpe series? It’s all early-1800s warfare, but he’s the main guy for like eight seasons.
Black Death, anyone ?
Don’t they all die at the end?
One does not simply have a nice day when Winter is coming.
Jon Snowcone
You know nothing, Gandalf the Grey!
Sean Bean does not simply act in a movie where he doesn’t die horribly.
“Today is a good day to die!” - The end
now that’s a project for 2025 I can get behind
Or maybe everybody else will die and he’ll be the last human remaining.
Monkey’s paw…
That would be awesome lmao
Classic Twilight Zone remake coming in 3… 2… 1…
Even as a video game character he doesn’t survive.
His role in The Frankenstein Chronicles always made me chuckle.
Spoilers
He gets murdered in a period fantasy setting, but they do him the honor of bringing him back to life.
he looks super annoyed though
A heavy cost. He pays it gladly.
What was that weird movie where he leads a small troop of guys into a small town and gets suspicious of the people there and then they draw and quarter him? Because that was honestly even more brutal.
Maybe one where he’s trying to film a fantasy movie he’s also starring in. The opening scene is his execution, all dramatic like in GoT, but when the guy swings the axe the head doesn’t fall off and everybody gets sprayed with blood because it’s a mannequin.
Smash cut to Sean Bean in normal clothes yelling “Cut! cut! Can we please turn the blood off?”
He did alright in Sharpe
“Still sharpe ;) “
And he died anyway

There’s almost certainly already fluffy fanfic about that.
