Edge has been cast in the upcoming Disney+ series "Percy Jackson and the Olympians."

The show is based on a series of fantasy novels written by Rick Riordan. Its eight-episode first season is expected to debut in 2024.

As first reported by Variety, Adam "Edge" Copeland, Suzanne Cryer, and Jessica Parker Kennedy have been added to the cast.

Edge will play Ares, the god of War in a reoccurring guest role. His character is described as “handsome in a wicked way and arrogant, despite not always being the sharpest tool in the shed. He loves conflict and acts as an agent of chaos wherever he goes.”

The series will feature Walker Scobell, Aryan Simhadri, and Leah Sava Jeffries in starring roles.

“‘Percy Jackson and the Olympians’ tells the fantastical story of a 12-year-old modern demigod, Percy Jackson (Scobell), who’s just coming to terms with his newfound divine powers when the sky god Zeus accuses him of stealing his master lightning bolt. With help from his friends Grover (Simhadri) and Annabeth (Jeffries), Percy must embark on an adventure of a lifetime to find it and restore order to Olympus,” reads the show's official logline.

Excellent. I wasn't really interested in this series all that much when it was first announced, but Edge being in it would edge me towards (pun intended :cozy ) checking it out.

Edge is only playing Ares because of his finisher being a spear

Edge was amazing in Vikings, so I know he is gonna kill it in this.

My wife loves the Percy Jackson stuff. Me not so much, but I'm more excited since Edge is gonna be in this.
