Killer Bean originated from the 2009 computer-animated action film 'Killer Bean Forever,' created by Jeff Lew. While initially a cult hit among animation fans for its surprisingly high-quality fight choreography, it surged into mainstream meme culture around 2018. The memes often focus on the absurdity of anthropomorphic coffee beans engaging in John Wick-style gunplay and breakdancing. From the iconic opening dance sequence to Jack Bean's deadpan dialogue about 'decaff,' the template is used to represent chaotic energy, misplaced confidence, or niche cinematic appreciation.
