Rowan Atkinson talks about the visual appeal of the Netflix series Man vs Bee

Rowan Atkinson revealed in an interview the series Man vs Bee "is a very visual thing."

The famous Mr Bean actor made his highly anticipated comeback with Netflix comedy series Man vs Bee.

Atkinson was invited as a guest for Wednesday’s episode of The One Show, alongside Angela Scanlon and Jermaine Jenas and disclosed what to expect from the series.

In the series, he plays Trevor Bingley, a recently divorced, whose life seems to be on a downhill spiral.

"It’s largely visual because it’s just Trevor [character name] in the house with a bee and the bee doesn't talk, it is a very visual thing," he stated.

He added: "I like playing him [Trevor] because he’s genuinely sweet, he’s genuinely a good-natured man.

"The real problem he has is his obsessiveness, he gets obsessed with a bee."

Regarding the upheld of shooting he told the show: "It was hard work because we were making it during COVID-19.

"Someone who had been working with me got Covid in the middle of our shoots so couldn't shoot for two weeks."

The series premieres today, June 24, on Netflix
