Thanks to Laura !

 From the director's blog of Faceless (Joe Carnahan); the caption is from him: Dario Scardapane, myself, Sean Bean and Yara Martinez drinking ourselves into a workday stupor! This is from FACELESS, a pilot that a handful of putzes at Fox torpedoed. Brilliant move guys...how's that fall slate working out for you? Not a single new show in the Top 50? Wow.

Possiblilties for downloads of the complete pilot on The Compleat Sean Bean :

Sean has been cast in the lead of Fox's undercover TV drama Faceless. He'll play heavy-set federal prosecutor John Robson - until he's beaten up and shot. After losing weight, Robson takes on a new identity and goes undercover as Eddie Pray to bring down a major crimelord.

The hour-long pilot comes from 20th Century Fox TV and Flame TV.

According to the casting call, Federal Prosecutor John Robson lives in Sherman Oaks with his young family. He is driven, brilliant and intuitive. Robson is fiercely certain that there is a link between all the crime factions in L.A., and that there is one overlord whose capture will topple them all. Despite losing support from the FBI, despite the nagging doubt of his assistant prosecutor, Diana Palos, and despite the mounting pressure from his wife to spend more time with their family, Robson won't back down from his conviction and set the wheels in motion, not for the first time, to try to get to the top via one of the middlemen, Lucas Reynosa. Before he can close the deal with Reynosa, however, Robson is brutally beaten, shot in the head, thrown into the river and left for dead - but manages to reach a phone for help and winds up in a hospital, where, after being in a coma for three months and learning that his family has been killed, he emerges, a new man with an old agenda: Eddie Pray

Eddie Pray is a hard criminal, an asshole, an animal, determined, through cunning and brutality, to rise through the L.A. crime hierarchy for his own purposes - which happen to be those of John Robson

Note: This pilot never made it to television!
