Sean Bean (“Game of Thrones,” “Missing“) will star in TNT’s pilot “Legends,” reports Variety.
The Lord of the Rings actor is replacing Brendan Fraser, who exited the project a month ago due to creative differences with showrunner Howard Gordon.
Based on the novel by Robert Littell, the project follows undercover operative Martin Odum, who has a chameleon-like ability to turn himself into a different person for each assignment.
Bean will next appear on the big screen again as Zeus in Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters.
