Take a first peek at Ed Sheeran on 'The Simpsons'

First Game of Thrones, now The Simpsons.

Ed Sheeran is making television cameos with a Stan Lee-like finesse of late. The singer's next appearance will be amongst America's favourite Springfield family, as part of their 29th season.

Sheeran will appear in a musical-themed episode titled "Haw-Haw Land" — a dig at La La Land. He'll play Brandon, a British lad who plays his way into Lisa's sights with a penchant for piano — causing a love triangle with a certain Nelson Muntz.

We've caught a first glimpse of Sheeran as a Simpsons character thanks to a new Fox ad. The episode will air on Fox in the U.S. on Sunday, Jan. 7.
