Rowan Atkinson, geboren am 6. Januar 1955 in Consett, County Durham, ist ein britischer Schauspieler und Komiker. Bekannt wurde er mit der Figur Mr. Bean, die ihn international einem breiten Publikum bekannt machte. Seine Laufbahn begann 1979 bei der BBC mit der Comedy-Show „Not the Nine O’Clock News“. Ab 1982 spielte er in „Blackadder“ die Titelrolle Edmund Blackadder. Im selben Jahr war er in „Sag niemals nie“ in einer Nebenrolle zu sehen. Von 1995 bis 1996 übernahm er in „The Thin Blue Line“ die Rolle des Inspector Raymond Fowler. Später folgten weitere Kinofilme wie „Bean – Der ultimative Katastrophenfilm“, „Johnny English – Der Spion, der es versiebte“ und „Mord im Pfarrhaus“. Atkinson wurde außerdem mit dem British Academy Television Award for Best Entertainment Performance und dem Laurence Olivier Award for Best Comedy Performance ausgezeichnet.
