So check out my duel review of Agent X and Season 2 of Legends and tell us what you think. As his role in Ridley Scott’s The Martian and of course that first season of Game Of Thrones shows, he’s an actor with wide-ranging versatility. As the new season of LEGENDS opens, Martin Odum is hunting for his true identity while on the run for a murder he didnt commit. Legends - Season 2 Sean Bean Morris Chestnut. The real strength though remains the never-to-be underestimated Bean. now Martin must search for clues about his true identity with the help of CIA agent Nina Brenner. Season 2 of Legends, which like the excellent second season of HBO’s The Leftovers is really a whole new show that you barely need the first season of, borrows the best tone from the Bean-starring ITV miniseries Extremely Dangerous, some of the grit and blood of 24: Live Another Day, and the psychological and religious dramas of Homeland (worth noting that Legends EP Howard Gordon holds the same credit on 24 and Homeland and has obviously brought their bare essentials to this show).
SEAN BEAN LEGENDS SEASON 2 PLUS
Eurospies, remnants of national and ethnic conflicts, plus a rather novel secondary plotline from 2000 of Bean as Russian gangster Dmitry Petrovich bring a very watchable depth and complexity to a show that previously just hinted at such aims. Under the radar and on the run, Odum is trying to find out who he really is and how he got to where he is amidst all the identities, known as legends, that he’s taken on over the years and the toll that’s taken. Jettisoning the supporting cast except for now- Rosewood star Morris Chestnut, the setting and even much of the premise of its first season, Legends, based on the writings of Robert Littell, has taken Bean’s persona-jumping ex-FBI agent Martin Odum home to the UK.
