Those who expect to see Sean Bean on the list will be disappointed. Despite a track record for playing characters that are constantly being killed, Bean failed to reach the top 10; He died 23 times on the screen.

Eric Roberts, who is number 10, has had 35 film deaths.

Bean did not even make it to the top five on the list with the name of the most likely person to die in their next film. After all the living actors deaths were compared with their complete filmography so far, the actor who ended up was Kit Harington.
