Tim McGraw loves to act, but the one thing he does not love is all the waiting around that is involved with filming a movie. “As an artist, it’s a great outlet as an artist, (but) sitting around waiting I’m not very fond of,” says Tim. “It’s hard for me to just sit around. Don’t get me wrong, I like to just sit around and do nothin’, but not all day every day.”
Tim’s next movie, Tomorrowland starring George Clooney will be out Memorial Day Weekend, May 22, 2015. Meanwhile, Tim just released his latest single from Sundown Heaven Town, “Diamond Rings and Old Barstools.”
