Sons of Anarchy

Ed Sheeran is going to be back in our lives more often than we thought. After this weekend’s incredible performances at Croke Park it is safe to say that our nation is pretty much all about Ed.

The news confirming his role on new TV series The Bastard Executioner is sure to cheer some people up if they find themselves missing the Grammy nominee already.

Ed, 24, will take on the role of Sir Cormac who is said to be “an ambitious and deadly protégé of a high-ranking church elder”.

According to The Hollywood Reporter the new FX drama has been created by Sons of Anarchy creator Kurt Sutter.

The ''blood-soaked medieval epic” is one 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''.

Sounds interesting! Certainly not what we’re used to coming from Ed. Stephen Moyer and Katey Sagal are also set to appear in the show.

Katey also appeared in Sons of Anarchy, which Ed was a huge fan of even recording a cover of Foy Vance’s Make It Rain for the series penultimate episode.

Ed has previously said the role is “really, really dark” and “gruesome”. Apparently he didn’t even have to audition! According to The Sun Ed managed to talk his way into the role:

''He had a musician in his last show and I said, 'Oh did he audition for that?' And he said 'No, but I just thought he would be good in it.' So I said, 'Can you put me in your show next?'''

It won't be the first time Ed has appeared on screen as earlier this year he took a trip to Summer Bay for a cameo on Aussie soap Home and Away.

Lea Michele has shocked Glee fans by landing a role on the motorcycle drama, Sons of Anarchy.

Director Kurt Sutter had previously teased fans with news of a famous guest slot, but Lea broke the news herself via Twitter.

Lea has also been taking snaps of the set while taking on her new role as Gertie.

Gertie is described as “an empathetic truck stop waitress and single mother who connects with Gemma during a difficult time”.

Like Glee, this will be the last season of Sons of Anarchy, but we can’t wait to see what both of these shows have in store for Lea.
