<p>Sean Bean is glad to be playing the good guy in his new TV series, although he admits it is fun to play the villain too.</p>
<p>The Lord Of The Rings star &#8211; who in the past has played several Hollywood villains, including Alec Trevelyan in James Bond film GoldenEye &#8211; is pleased to be getting more hero roles, but insists he wouldn&#8217;t turn down the part of a great villain.</p>
<p>Sean said: &#8220;I just think about Anthony Hopkins in the Silence Of The Lambs and if you got offered a part like that you&#8217;d be mad to refuse it because it&#8217;s a brilliant meaty role, you know, and I&#8217;ve had some good roles as villains.</p>
<p>He added: &#8220;But I&#8217;m glad that I&#8217;m veering away to more decent people now and having a crack at that, sort of anti-heroes. They&#8217;ve all got their faults. Every character has their faults and their foibles and their limits.</p>
<p>&#8220;I just like to be broadening out and play villains and play a good guy and play a funny guy maybe.&#8221;</p>
<p>Sean stars alongside The Full Monty&#8217;s Mark Addy and Alfie Allen in new HBO fantasy series Game Of Thrones, which was filmed on location in Northern Ireland and Malta.</p>
<p>He revealed: &#8220;It&#8217;s a kind of weird magical mystery world that&#8217;s not set in a particular time but it&#8217;s a quite a disturbing piece. It&#8217;s not for kids really.</p>
<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s about seven kingdoms and everybody&#8217;s vying for power so it&#8217;s very much a story of corruption and greed and power and sex and violence, but magic at the same time.&#8221;</p>
<p>But Sean was relieved his character Ned wasn&#8217;t part of the corruption.</p>
<p>He laughed: &#8220;I was quite a good guy in it so I didn&#8217;t get involved in a lot of brutality. Only when necessary.&#8221;</p>
