Sean Dignam

Sean Dignam is the tritagonist of the 2006 crime drama film The Departed. He's a staff sergeant in the Massachusetts Police department who works for Queenan on a case to bust.
He is portrayed by Mark Wahlberg, who also portrayed Cade Yeager in the Transformers film series, Terry Hoitz in The Other Guys, Bob Swagger in Shooter (2007), Chris Farraday in Contraband (2012), Bill Taggart in Broken City, Max Payne in the film with the same name, John Bennett in Ted and Ted 2, and the Blue Falcon in Scoob.
==Personality==
He constantly swore and insulted people. Despite his abrasive personality, he was extremely loyal to his boss Captain Oliver Queenan and sought to avenge both Queenan and Billy Costigan's deaths by killing Colin Sullivan, who was Frank Costello's mole in the police.
==Biography==
Dignam is a very unpleasant staff sergeant in the Massachusetts State Police. He comes off very standoffish to anybody he meets but that's because he's only protecting who and what is close to him. Sean has always said this about his job. However, he always obeys the rules no matter what.
After Queenan got murdered by Costello's men, Dignam resigned and took time off to work on the case by himself. At some point near the end of the film Madilyn Madden sent him the boxes of tapes with proof that sergeant Sullivan was the rat all along. He later planned a murder case on Sullivan by waiting for him in his apartment to kill him with a silenced handgun. He then finally avenged his friend and partner. Dignam later puts away his weapon and walks out of Sullivan's apartment making it look like Sullivan was murder when he came home.
==Trivia==
*A sequel was planned, and it would've focus on Dignam, but it never happen.
