The UNT alum and Sideways star is coming home to play an Accidental Texan.
, Thomas Haden Church drew from the world around him — that world being Texas, which, Church would posit, is the center of the universe. The actor, best known for films such as, plays an oil driller named Merle who's facing bankruptcy and about to lose everything he owns. He befriends an aspiring actor named Erwin , who finds himself stranded in Texas after getting fired from his first acting gig.
“There were friends of my dad, men that we hunted with or fished with,” says Church. “I started working on a large ranch when I was 13, and you couldn't be out on ranches in South Texas in the '70s without being around the oil industry.” Church puts on a great performance as Merle, although it didn’t require too much acting on his part. He saw the role as an opportunity to revisit his childhood, recalling his experience meeting ranchers, oil hands and drillers.
“The relationship between Erwin and Merle — it’s a really invaluable one,” says Church. “They learn a lot from each other, and I think a big part of it is forgiveness. And that's what I really enjoy.”
