Sean Bean will appear in a new series, Legends, set to debut on August 13, 2014, on the TNT television network in the USA. The series is based on the award-winning book of the same title by Robert Littell.
Actor Sean Bean, well known to fandoms for his roles as Boromir in The Lord of the Rings films and Lord Eddard Stark in HBO’s Game of Thrones, will star as Martin Odum, a deep cover operative for the FBI. According to the description of the pilot episode on TNT’s official website for the series, “Martin Odum has the uncanny ability to transform himself into a completely different person for each job. But he begins to question his own identity when a mysterious stranger suggests that Martin isn’t the man he believes himself to be.”
