Travis Kelce the actor
NFL star Travis Kelce has apparently landed his first major acting role.
The Kansas City Chiefs tight end plans to become a "heavyweight" figure in music and entertainment.
Kelce has seen his star power rise after going public with his girlfriend Taylor Swift last summer.
The 34-year-old has now been cast in the new horror series Grotesquerie.
Directed by American Horror Story creator Ryan Murphy, the drama is set to land on FX this fall.
Kelce will appear in the show alongside Niecy Nash-Betts, Courtney B. Vance, and Lesley Manville.
On Tuesday, Nash-Betts appeared to confirm Kelce's involvement with a surprise Instagram reveal.
"This is what happens when WINNERS link up" she captioned a clip featuring Kelce in a backstage dressing room.
And he got to see the Mavericks take a 3-0 series lead over the Timberwolves.
Game 4 between the two teams will take place on Tuesday night at 8:30 pm in Dallas.
