Movie veteran Peter O'Toole is to play Pope Paul III in the second season of hit historical drama The Tudors. The Pope clashed with Henry VIII as the English king, portrayed by Irish actor Jonathan Rhys Meyers, over the ruler's divorce from his first wife Catherine of Aragon.

The famous fight resulted in the historic break between England and the Roman Catholic Church. O'Toole is reportedly scheduled to shoot his scenes for the hit drama later this year.
