You ever have a crush on a girl and you’re not sure why? She’s not all that attractive really… she’s not that smart… she has totally different tastes than you… but for some reasons you really dig her. Well, that sort of sums up my fandom of Rowan Atkinson.
Despite the fact that I really didn’t like Johnny English, and wasn’t all that thrilled with the first Mr. Bean flick, I find myself getting kinda excited about this news flash from the good folks over at Empire:
You wouldn’t’ think it warranted an encore though, but that’s exactly what star Rowan Atkinson has in mind for the slapstick comedy character. Yes, against the odds Atkinson has set out to develop Bean 2 and he’s enlisted the aid of Simon McBurney.
Ah yes, I have found childhood memories of watching Mr. Bean on TV. Maybe he can recapture some of that magic. Or maybe not. Either way it’s still a better idea than making a 50 Cent movie.
