Ed Sheeran has landed his first acting job – a recurring role on the upcoming FX drama series The Bastard Executioner.
The new show, which was created by Sons of Anarchy‘s Kurt Sutter, is billed as “a blood-soaked medieval epic that tells the story of a 14th century warrior whose life is forever changed when a divine messenger beseeches him to lay down his sword and lead the life of a journeyman executioner,” according to THR.
Ed is set to play “Sir Cormac, an ambitious and deadly protégé of a high-ranking church elder.”
Also starring in the new series are Stephen Moyer and Katey Sagal. It is expected to premiere this fall!
