TV hardman Sean Bean (http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/picturegalleries/celebritynews/8576467/Sean-Bean-attacked-with-a-broken-glass.html) is to show off his more feminine side playing a transsexual in a courtroom drama.

Bean (http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/tvandradio/8453959/Sean-Bean-on-Game-of-Thrones.html), who made his name in the Napoleonic war drama Sharpe, dons a mini-skirt and a blonde wig for the role in the new series of BBC1's Accused.

Ben Stephenson, Controller of Drama Commissioning at the BBC, said Bean would feature in the third episode of the four-part show.

He told members of the Broadcasting Press Guild: "He's playing a transsexual, a brilliant story, untold I think on mainstream television".



Other names lined up for the new series include Anna Maxwell Martin, Stephen Graham and Liverpudlian comic John Bishop.
The first series of the legal drama, written by Cracker creator Jimmy McGovern, starred Peter Capaldi, Christopher Eccleston and Mackenzie Crook.
Bean plays an English teacher called Simon Gaskell and his alter ego, Tracie Tremarco, whose quest for love leads to the courtroom.
He will appear alongside Graham and Rachel Leskovac, who played hairdresser Natasha Blakeman in Coronation Street.
Bean said: "I've wanted to work on a Jimmy McGovern drama for a while and I think this cracking script really delivers a powerful, emotional drama for the audience."

Blimey...That's the Bean, anything for a quid! :ignore:

[robertlouis]

Sharpe in a skirt?!! What would Harper and Hagman make of that?

[RallyCola]

in terms of being "daring" for his career...cheers to sean.

in terms of having more mainstream exposure to transgenderism...cheers to him,

but...sean bean doesn't look good at all. no amount of make up or camera tricks are going to make him look good. boromir is a hard ass ork slaying SOB. we'll see just how good of an actor he is to pull off the role.

anyone remember the movie sorority boys or too wong foo...some actors shouldn't take these roles because its just not a good look for them.

best tg performance in mainstream movies: lee pace (solider's girl). i'm not a fan of felicity huffman and transamerica.

I just watched all of Sharpe (fantastic) and seeing this would really ruin the moment for me now.... :)

No thanks Sean!! lol

[tsadriana]

hahahahah

I guess if Michael Caine could do it (which he did, badly in that dreadful Brian de Palma thing) then we have been here before. But, is he -woops, I mean, SHE- a top? Maybe we shouldn't go into the details...I wonder who chose the earrings? Was it a case of wardrobe picking some out and Tracie saying Hun, I am NOT wearing those...ewww I like these...?

[tsadriana]

if they do really want to make a movie with transexual,to choose a real one ,not a bloke dress in woman ..imao-

1. star power
2. how do we know that tgirls can act at all. let's be honest...the acting in some of the scenes we see isn't great. its forced and ill timed. that's not to say i dislike a bit of story in my porn, but right now, there are no well trained tgirl actresses in the biz to take jobs away from known actors.

how they do know actualy how a tgirl act in real life?like maybe we dont know to act in movies ,they dont know to act as a tgirl either....is simple from outside but not so simple when ur the tgirl instead.

when a studio/casting director chooses an ACTOR for a part, they are looking at someone for their craft as well as name (in most cases) when the budget allows. Plus there is cache in a ggirl or gman gender bending. its not so "glamorous" if its an actual tgirl playing the role in most cases.

that said...it isn't about WHO can act like a girl or not....it is about acting in general. not everyone has the timing to deliver lines well or the ability to convey the right emotion at the time. Professional acting may seem like it is easy but it really isn't.

I gladly wait for the day when a tgirl breaks into mainstream and isn't reduced to the type of shock role Yasmin had in the hangover.

no doubt there is talent that far exceeds porn...but i submit that studio execs and fellow actors who have to appear on screen/kiss the tgirl actor have not yet evolved enough to take such chances. its unfair, but hopefully we will get there soon.

until then, we have boromir in a dress.
