The law of Bean
The universal rule that Sean Bean can never be allowed to live throughout the entirety of any television program or movie in which he stars. For every show/film in which he survives, one of his fellow actors dies in real life.
"Dude, did you hear about (insert actor name here)?"
"Yeah, how'd he/she die?"
"Their director broke the law of Bean"
"What? That's insane!"
