Rowan Atkinson shares hilarious story about getting told he "looks just like" Mr. Bean

It was the question we've all been wondering ... would Rowan Atkinson ever return to the role of Mr. Bean?

And that's the question Graham Norton put to the actor when he joined him on that famous red sofa.

While he began to rule out a return for Mr. Bean, he added "never say never" - which has made us very excited.

During his appearance on the chat show, the British actor - who starred in the iconic role for five years from 1990 to 1995 - also shared a hilarious story about a man who didn’t believe he was actually the lovable character.

The 64-year-old laughed: "I get half recognised a lot. One man once said, 'You are the spitting image of Mr. Bean.'"

"When I told him that I was the actor that played Mr. Bean, he laughed and said, 'I bet you wish you were. The resemblance is so uncanny you could get lookalike work. You'd make an absolute fortune!'"

Too good!
