Mr. Bean star Rowan Atkinson turns 65

English actor-comedian Rowan Atkinson turned 65 today (December 28). The actor, known for his unforgettable performance as Mr. Bean is undoubtedly one of the most talented and funniest actors the world has ever seen. The actor basically defined silent comedy when we were children and could not understand the depth of it. His fans flooded social media and showered the legendary actor with love and good wishes on his birthday.

Along with Mr. Bean, the actor is also known for playing the lead role in Johnny English, a series of British action-comedy films.  Johnny English is a parody of the concept of action movies like James Bond. The actor was last seen on-screen in Johnny English Strikes Again, which released in 2018. The actor also made headlines after fake news about his death went viral. The report alleged that the actor died in a car crash while attempting a stunt. The fake post, which looked like a Fox News report, featured a photograph of Rowan Atkinson along with the caption “R.I.P. 1955-2017”. The post included a video play button, implying that it will show footage of the comedian’s death if you press it.
