U2 drummer Larry Mullen Jr. has agreed to appear repeatedly and provide his voice for the second season of the Fox cartoon series The Cleveland Show.
According to BBC News, Mullen himself contacted the creators of the Family Guy spin-off show through a mutual friend and requested a chance to be involved. Mullen will appear as a mobster in one episode and as an Elvis impersonator in another.
"He came in and we hung out for a couple of hours," Mike Henry, who provides the voice for main character Cleveland Brown, said. "We just recorded him doing a couple of different parts and he was very funny."
Other musicians appearing in the show's second season include Kanye West, the Black Eyed Peas' Will.i.am and T-Pain.
U2 will be starting another leg of their 360° tour in North America this summer.
