The 62-year-old comic thinks his friend and series co- creator, "Love Actually" writer Richard Curtis, has come up with a very funny idea featuring his popular character - who first featured on TV 27 years ago - in his senior years, reported Daily Star.
"It would be very funny to see where we can go with him as an old man and what kind of comedy we get out of it. Playing an old person can be very funny," Atkinson says.
A previously unseen episode was broadcast in 2006, while the successful series also spawned two movie adaptations, "Bean: The Ultimate Disaster Movie" in 1997 and 2007's "Mr. Bean's Holiday".
An animated show is still broadcast today and Atkinson has reprised the character at the 2012 London Olympics Opening Ceremony, and two years later for a Snickers commercial.
