Considering that there were only fourteen episodes of Mr Bean every produced, it's amazing how popular it is. It's shown in every country in the world. He's one of the most famous Britons ever and many foreigners think of him as the quintessentially English gentleman (pretty worrying really).
Mr Bean is basically a story about a child trapped in a man's body, and Rowan Atkinson barely talks in the episodes unless it's to grunt, so it's pretty universal and easy to understand.
But the performer himself, Atkinson has called Mr Bean a "sort of such a natural anarchist."
Wait, what?
He continued: "But at the same time, Mr. Bean is a very, very self-contained character because he's so sort-of introspective and so selfish and self-centered that there's no particular need to have another person in the scene to make him funny."
So he's a sort of useless anarchist? But what if Mr Bean was actually...bad?

It's pretty funny; especially when they intercut with other films. When he pops a paper bag and a plane goes down it's masterful. The terrifying music gives it the feel of a horror film. I would definitely watch that.
Rowan Atkinson is retired and wasn't keen on doing a Mr Bean film, but I think after seeing this trailer, he knows what he has to do.
But Mean Bean is not quite as scary as the mashup of Fifty Shades of Grey and Mr Bean which takes awkward S&M encounters to the next level.
This is epic and uncomfortable in a truly magnificent way.

But really nothing can compare to the original Mr Bean.
When he gets on a plane and visits American, he doesn't need to be an anarchist to cause a huge amount of trouble. Ah, Rowan Atkinson, we miss you!
