Tim McGraw shares acting advice received from Billy Bob Thornton
In a 2023 interview with the Bobby Bones Show, actor Tim McGraw shared professional advice he received from Billy Bob Thornton during the filming of the 2004 movie Friday Night Lights. McGraw, who was nervous about his first major starring role, stated that Thornton told him, ‘If you think you're not doing enough, you're probably still doing too much.’
Friday Night Lights was a commercial success, earning $62 million against a $30 million budget. McGraw has since built a significant acting career with roles in films such as The Blind Side and The Shack. He later worked with Thornton again on the television series 1883, which also featured his wife, Faith Hill.
