WME is on a signing spree.

After signing Dwayne Johnson away from CAA, the agency has signed Ben Barnes, the actor best known for playing Prince Caspian in two of the three Chronicles of Narnia movies.

The British actor, who stars in the upcoming U.K. film Killing Bono, also starred as the title character in Dorian Gray and appeared in Stardust. 

WME last week signed The Office actor John Krasinski and hip-hop star Usher.

Barnes previously was with ICM.

Barnes continues to be repped by Peter Brooks at CAM in the U.K. and managed by Lena Roklin, and attorney Adam Kalle.
