Keeping Sean Bean Alive

Noted TV and film actor Sean Bean delivers excellent performances, winning hearts as Ned Stark in “Game of Thrones”.  He lives his characters, no matter how undemanding or short the role. And short the roles tend to be, as he is almost guaranteed to die on-screen. Whether getting executed for treason or getting chased off a cliff by cattle, Sean Bean has died an impressive 25 times on film alone. Is it actually possible for him to remain alive by the time the credits roll? For the sake of fanboys/girls, we decided to find out.
EXPERIMENT 1: Sean Bean is the Lord of Winterfell, and he is for the first time meeting the family of his friend, King Robert. He doesn't care for them much and especially dislikes the eldest son, Joffrey. Unbeknownst to him, Joffrey is in a particularly bad mood because someone had dyed his hair black on the way to Winterfell. And. It. Just. Won't. Come. Off. This causes him to be more than usually unpleasant to everyone, finally culminating in the murder of a cook's boy he doesn't like. Sean Bean can't let this go unpunished and declares that Joffrey must be arrested for his crimes. Sean Bean is then beheaded as a traitor to the realm.
EXPERIMENT 2: Through a hilarious series of events involving a drunken casting director and Rowan Atkinson being sent to the emergency room, Sean Bean lands the role of Mr. Bean. A wacky slapstick world full of accidents though it may be, the character of Mr. Bean never actually gets hurt. Sean Bean was entirely safe during the whole project but couldn't forgive himself for being part of the barbaric butchering of a cultural icon. The critics couldn't forgive him either, and after reading the reviews Sean Bean died of embarrassment.
EXPERIMENT 3: This isn't working out. Time for desperate measures. So we locked Sean Bean in a very comfortable hotel room for a couple of months, with all the room service and television he could possibly want. At first we thought we'd finally done it and that he might make it after all. However, you can't cheat destiny: Sean Bean grew bored (and somewhat insane) in captivity and began to practice hand shadows. He got rather good and started to write elaborate stories for the hand shadows to act out. In all these stories, everyone (played by Sean Bean) died.
EXPERIMENT 4: Right! He can't die if he was never born in the first place! After spending a fortune in research we solved the secret to time travel and prevented Sean Bean's parents from ever meeting. As a result, Sean Bean never existed. As a result we never had a reason to travel back in time to prevent Sean Bean from being born. As a result Sean Bean existed. As a result we travelled back in time to prevent Sean Bean…ok we give up.
