Between working on new music, traveling around the country on his Shotgun Rider Tour and filming the new movie, The Shack, Tim McGraw is plenty busy, but in the midst of all that, he’s also working on a new TV series. Tim explains, “We’re writing right now, we’re writing a series called Robbers where I’m gonna play a really bad guy.”
Besides starring in the new crime drama, which will air on TNT, Tim will also be a producer on the show. While the scripts for Robbers are still in the working stages right now, Tim says, “If it all comes together it’s gonna be a lot a fun. It’s fun to play a bad guy. You get to sort of step outside yourself a little bit.”
So far there is not a timeline for when Robbers will begin airing on TNT, but we’ll keep you posted.
