Sometimes a show becomes so popular, that it often hides other accomplishments of its cast. The show becomes their identity, people often recognize them by their character from the show. Game of Thrones is an example of such a franchise. Actor Nikolaj Coster-Waldau is one of the most recognizable faces from the HBO fantasy, and most people would know him as Jaime f**king Lannister rather than his real name. Coster-Waldau will soon be seen suiting up as another medieval knight in an upcoming gothic horror movie.

According to a recent report by The Hollywood Reporter, Coster-Waldau has been roped in to play an honorable knight in Joanna Coates’ upcoming medieval horror Virtue. The official synopsis of the film reads:

“Set in England in 1350, Virtue sees Coster-Waldau play Sir Peter, a heroic knight, who after years abroad returns from war accompanied by his teenage son and companions at arms. They find a plague-ravaged homeland ruled by social unrest, superstition and fear. After controversially preventing a witch from burning, Sir Peter vows to rescue Fraya (Garai), the latest villager to vanish into a haunted forest that the locals are terrified by, eager to re-establish his name and authority in the eyes of his people.

On his quest, good intentions sour and havoc begins to reign … sinister forces surround the men as they find Fraya and her “possessed” daughter Ludella. But do these women actually want to be rescued? Sir Peter is forced to confront and even sacrifice his own humanity and family for the good of order, his people and the patriarchy.”
