Sean Bean returns as the stubbornly independent Captain Richard Sharpe in this historical adventure. Sharpe, an officer in the British Army, and his men are in Spain, fighting against Napoleon's forces, when he learns that Teresa (Assumpta Serna), his mistress, has given birth to his daughter. As Sharpe comes to terms with fatherhood, he loses control of the South Essex company, and learns he must now fight alongside Sgt. Obadiah Hakeswill (Pete Postlethwaite), his nemesis from his days fighting in India. As Sharpe battles Hakeswill with a vehemence that matches his contempt for the French forces, he looks for a way to regain control of the South Essex company. Sharpe's Company was based on the novel by Bernard Cornwell.
