Mr. Bean's Holiday ( also known as Bean 2, and originally French Bean ) is a comedy movie in development, starring Rowan Atkinson as Mr. Bean, to be released in 2007. The film originally had a U.S. release date of March 2007 planned, but has been pushed back to 28 September 2007. However, the film is still expected to release in the UK on its set date of 30 March 2007 by United International Pictures. The U.S. release may be brought forward again, however there will be no confirmation until an announcement from Universal Pictures is made. The tagline is Disaster has a passport.

It will be the second film based on the television series Mr. Bean, following the 1997 film Bean. News of the second movie first broke in early 2005, suggesting that it would be written by Simon McBurney, although in December 2005, Atkinson confirmed that the screenplay was being written by himself and longtime collaborator Richard Curtis. Atkinson also said that Mr. Bean's Holiday will be the last Mr. Bean story.

Unlike the 1997 Mel Smith film, Mr Bean's Holiday will be directed by Steve Bendelack. This film began shooting on 15 May 2006.

Universal Pictures and United International Pictures released a teaser trailer in November 2006. and in December 2006 launched an official website online.
