Country music singer-songwriter Thomas Rhett says he would like to add “actor” to his entertainment resume.
Ever since he was a kid, Thomas has been fascinated with being on camera or behind the camera. He remembers, “Even from a young age, me and my sister used to write little skits and my dad would film us acting out these scenes. And I’ve always loved being behind the camera.”
However Thomas has no illusions that just because he’s a singer and he’s filmed a couple of music videos, that he can act. “Acting, that is not a joke,” says Thomas. “I’ve done a little bit of it here and there, like in music videos, and I’ve guested on The Ranch with Ashton Kutcher on Netflix. And it’s easy to get into a room and try to pretend that you’re somebody else in a song, but when you’re trying to pretend like you’re somebody else and act it … that is a whole different ballgame. But I would love to at least take some lessons and dive into it and see what the future held.”
Based on some of his performances in music videos like “Crash and Burn” and “Craving You,” Thomas would probably be a terrific actor, but for now he’s busy touring the world and promoting his latest single.
