The “Rhinestone Cowboy” only acted in a few projects over the course of his career. He was more of a movie star than a TV actor, appearing in films such as The Cool Ones and Uphill All the Way. But Campbell’s most well-known role was in a movie called True Grit, in which he played a Texas Ranger named Le Boeuf alongside John Wayne’s iconic characte...
Since Carrie Underwood started her singing career on a television show, it only made sense that she’d one day develop an interest in TV and film. That venture started in 2009 when she offered up her voice to a character named Carrie Underworm for an episode of Sesame Street. But if you don’t count that voiceover part, Underwood’s acting career trul...
Kris Kristofferson may have the most extensive filmography of any country star on this list!He’s appeared on both the big and small screen, with his most recent role being in the 2018 film Blaze. With such a long resume, it’s likely that you’ve missed a few of Kristofferson’s acting gigs. But two of his projects you’re sure to have seen are A Star ...
Randy Travis is known first and foremost as a country singer, but he’s done his fair share of acting as well. His first role was in 1992, when he played a character named Billy Wheeler in the televised legal drama Matlock. He reprised the role for a second episode, and went on to make guest appearances on other series such as Sabrina the Teenage Wi...
Jerry Reed had a multi-faceted career that showcased the depths of his talent. He was a singer, songwriter, composer, guitar player, and actor. His acting career kicked off in 1972 with a voiceover role on a Scooby Doo series. He went on to physically appear on a number of other television shows, including Nashville 99 and Mama’s Family. However, R...
Like his Highwayman bandmate and good buddy Kristofferson, Willie Nelson also has an acting career to boast about. In fact, Nelson and Kristofferson appeared in a film together, titled Songwriter. While most of Nelson’s filmography credits involve guest appearances as himself, he’s also taken on some character roles. Other than Songwriter, Nelson i...
Reba McEntire is one of the most well-known country music actors there is. While her filmography may be smaller than other artists, she had a role that no one else on this list can claim…a starring spot on a multi-season TV series. Of course, the series we’re talking about is the family sitcom Reba, which ran for six seasons from 2001-2007 with McE...
We teased this one for you earlier, but Dwight Yoakam actually had a pivotal role in one of cinema’s most critically-acclaimed works. He played an antagonist named Doyle Hargraves in the 1996 film Sling Blade, which featured Billy Bob Thorton in the lead role. Yoakam’s performance led to a nomination for a Screen Actors Guild Awardfor Outstanding P...
We mentioned Johnny Cash’s acting career earlier when we spoke about Nelson’s, but that was just the tip of the iceberg. His acting resume stretches back almost as far as his singing career, with his first role being in the 1961 film Five Minutes to Live. The majority of his acting gigs were for television, though he did appear as a character on th...
Tim McGraw’s filmography may be shorter than some of the other artists on this list, but he had roles in some of the most well-known projects. While his acting debut was on a 1997 episode of The Jeff Foxworthy Show, McGraw is primarily known as a movie actor. His acting has led to him being nominated for two awards…a MTV Movie Award for Best Male B...
- Kris Kristofferson. The former Army captain and Rhodes scholar's film career spans 40 years and more than 100 movie roles, with a Golden Globe award for Best Actor in 1976's A Star Is Born.
- Tim McGraw. McGraw may be the most surprising singer-turned-actor that Music City has given Tinseltown. Although most of his roles thus far haven't been substantial, leading-man material, he certainly has the range (and the star power) to pull off a name-above-the-title performance.
- Dwight Yoakam. Were he to completely walk away from his music career (and we're not suggesting he do that!) , Yoakam would most certainly have the chops to be a full-time actor.
- Dolly Parton. Rarely playing anyone but a version of herself, Parton made her debut in 9 to 5, one of the most successful comedy films of all time. She spouted a plethora of quotable lines and more than held her own against screen vets Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin.

- Kris Kristofferson. Kris Kristofferson, the first of three members of the country music supergroup The Highwaymen on this list (Willie Nelson and Johnny Cash are both on the way; Waylon Jennings never made the jump to acting unfortunately).
- Willie Nelson. Outlaw country singer and all-around American legend Willie Nelson will forever go down as one of the most prominent names in the music industry, having accumulated a total of 10 Grammys throughout his career that goes all the way back to 1956.
- Reba McEntire. Reba McEntire, known to many as “The Queen of Country,” has sold millions upon millions of albums and taken home just about every type of award someone in the music industry can win throughout her career.
