Dierks Bentley To Produce New Comedy for Fox

Dierks Bentley is not just a music man anymore. The country megastar is said to be in talks to executive produce a single-camera comedy at Fox.

The series is “set in a Nashville bar, where singers and songwriters go to chase their dreams, or maybe just to fall in love if only for a night,” according to Variety. Jack Burditt, the creator and original showrunner of Last Man Standing, is also connected to the untitled series. Dierks isn’t the first country star to dip his toes in television waters. Faith Hill serves as an executive producer on the current daytime talk show Pickler & Ben, which is co-hosted by fellow country star Kellie Pickler. Of course, Reba starred in her own sitcom from 2001 to 2007 and she also executive produced a handful of those episodes.

Dierks recently finished his 2018 Mountain High Tour with a stop at Hollywood Bowl. No official word when the new Fox series will air.
