Henry Bean (born 1945, Philadelphia, United States) is an American scriptwriter, film director, producer, novelist, and actor.

Most famous as a scriptwriter, Bean wrote "Internal Affairs", "Deep Cover", "Venus Rising", "The Believer" (which was awarded the dramatic Grand Jury Prize at the 2001 Sundance Festival), "Basic Instinct 2" and "Noise".

Bean acted in "The Believer", and was a producer on "Deep Cover" and "Noise". He was the director for "The Believer" and "Noise".

Bean is also the inspiration for the main protagonist of "Noise". He was so tired of constant noise around him and his home in New York that he decided to take the law into his own hands. If a car alarm was going off and the owner of the vehicle didn't rectify the situation, Bean would break into the car to disable the offending car alarm. Bean was eventually arrested and jailed. He admits to doing it a few more times since. [ [http://www.reuters.com/article/newsOne/idUSL239140420071023 Tim Robbins wages crusade against noise in new film | U.S. | Reuters ] ]
