As many of you may know by now, the actor Sean Bean has long become a meme among movie buffs. Face of Ned Stark in Game of Thrones and Boromir in Lord of the Rings, Bean made himself known for a peculiarity: his characters always die.
This is a leitmotif that has become so frequent that the British actor has been forced to refuse several roles. But if there are actors whose destiny is ‘marked by fate’, we have many others who, strangely, have never died on the big screen. Here are some.
Justin Timberlake
Justin Timberlake, arrested a few days ago for driving under the influence, certainly had one very flourishing artistic career. In addition to being a highly appreciated singer, the Tennessee native has also taken part in several films, without ever losing his life on screen. Whether we’re talking about his performance as Sean Parker in The Social Network or his superb performance in the film In Time, Timberlake has shown great versatility.
Brie Larson
After starting out with smaller projects, Brie Larson gained public favor with the 2015 film Room, which also earned her a Academy Awards. However, we all know her today for her portrayal of Captain Marvel in the MCU. That it is due to the influence of Infinity Stones or not, Larson is also among the performers who have never lost their lives ‘on screen’.
Emma Watson
The role of Hermione in the Harry Potter films allowed Emma Watson to become one celebrity since she was a little girl. Her career includes productions such as Sofia Coppola’s The Bling Ring and the live action Beauty and the Beast, capable of gaining the favor of audiences and critics. However, after years spent in the spotlight, Emma Watson has decided to abandon (at least for the moment) the world of cinema, leaving behind her an immaculate career: in fact, she too has always survived the events of the films she took part in part.
Zendaya
Seen in Luca Guadagnino’s very recent Challengers, the American star Zendaya is a mix of character and versatility. After her debut at Disney, Zendaya has certainly had a high-level career, with acclaimed productions such as Euphoria and Dune. Again, none of his characters ever died on screen.
Tim Allen
Tim Allen definitely is one of the best-known faces of the big screen. Beloved by children and adults alike, Allen has played iconic roles such as the Buzz Lightyear of Toy Story and the Santa Clause in the series of the same name. Perhaps it was this propensity to play positive characters loved by all that allowed Allen to never die in his films? The judgment is yours.
On Porco Rosso (Steelbook Blu-ray DVD) It is one of today’s best sellers.
