Rowan Atkinson surprised his fans in September of 2011, by saying he won't be playing Mr. Bean any more as he's just too old for the his ageless bumbling Mr. Bean character. "I've always liked Mr Bean as a cartoon-like figure, who doesn’t really age much. I've always seen him as an ageless and timeless being and I'm clearly not ageless and timeless", said Atkinson, who turned 56 in January.
