About Adam Copeland
Adam Copeland first became widely known in professional wrestling as Edge. His path began in Ontario, where winning an essay contest provided free wrestling training; he went on to become a WWE champion and a 2012 WWE Hall of Fame inductee. Screen acting became another part of that career, including Dwight Hendrickson in Haven and Kjetill Flatnose in Vikings.
Haven is the best starting point for a sustained acting role outside Kjetill’s settlement story. His other credits include Nick Blades in Bending the Rules, Atom Smasher in The Flash and Ares in Percy Jackson and the Olympians. The comparison is useful because his on-screen work ranges from regular television character development to the larger-than-life presentation of a god of war.
