Avengers actor Jeremy Renner’s Knights Templar drama series has been picked up by History for a 10-episode run. The new show will explore the mysterious group during the Crusades and will see Renner produce and also guest star.

In a statement by A&E and History president Paul Buccieri, he revealed his excitement in partnering with Renner “to tell the intriguing story of the Knights Templar, which has been shrouded in mystery until now.”

History also released a synopsis: Knightfall reveals the great secrets protected by the Templars and tells the story of faith, loyalty and brotherhood that help sustain these warriors on the battlefield, and the dark events that would forever sear the infamous date of Friday the 13th into the world’s psyche.”

Buccieri also expressed “premium scripted content continues to be a growing part of the History portfolio, with an eye towards quality historical fact-based storytelling, and Knightfall is the perfect fit for our brand.”

Renner will also serve as executive producer alongside Knightfall co-creators Don Handfield and Richard Rayner. Knightfall is scheduled to premier in late 2016.
