Deadline is reporting that former WWE star Edge – a.k.a. Adam Copeland – has signed on for a recurring role in the fifth season of History’s acclaimed drama Vikings.

Edge is set to play Ketill Flatnose, “a fierce and brave warrior, chosen by Floki to be one of the leaders of the Viking party intent on traveling to Iceland to set up a community there.” Copeland’s recent credits include guest roles in The Flash and Haven, while he’s also set to headline WWE Studios’ and Lionsgate’s upcoming action thriller Interrogation [watch the trailer here].
