A happy reunion took place with the recent addition of Billy Bob Thornton to the cast of the Paramount + show, 1883, as Tim McGraw, who stars in the show along with his wife Faith Hill, had previously worked with him in the 2004 movie Friday Night Lights.

“Billy Bob was so fantastic. I’m a big fan of his," gushes Tim in a statement from his label. "When he showed up and set it was great to see him again, and we’ve been friends and kept in touch and hung out together a lot since we did Friday Night Lights.

"He taught me a lot during Friday Night Lights," Tim continues. "He was like the angel on my shoulder. The best advice he ever gave me is, 'If you think you’re not doing enough, you’re probably still doing too much.'

"And I’ve taken that to heart.”
