| British star SEAN BEAN is shunning Hollywood glamour for his next acting project – narrating a medical training video for a British hospital. The LORD OF THE RINGS actor will provide voice over duties on a new medical DVD for patients who are preparing for hip and knee replacement surgery at Sheffield’s Northern General Hospital. The Sheffield-born actor’s unlikely role came after staff asked Bean’s grandmother if he would help out. Surgery manager ANDREA WATSON explains, “It started off with a joke when we were looking for someone with a good Yorkshire accent. “Someone said how about Sean Bean? Then someone else remembered his granny had been treated here. “It’s amazing. He’s an A-list Hollywood star but he went into a studio and recorded it between films.” |
