EXCLUSIVE: Tim McGraw will no longer headline Netflix‘s upcoming rodeo series. The untitled drama’s pickup was unveiled at Netflix’s upfront presentation in May with McGraw attached to star and executive produce.
A source close to the actor-musician indicated that he needed to undergo back surgery which would require recovery time. McGraw is coming off an orthopedic surgery on both knees which he underwent in August due to an injury sustained on tour, resulting in him canceling the rest of his 2024 concert dates.
