Jake Owen is making his film debut in Our Friend, which stars Dakota Johnson, Casey Affleck and Jason Segal.
The movie revolves around a husband whose friend steps up to help care for his terminally ill wife. Jake plays Aaron, who's a friend of the friend in the film.
Jake says, "I've always been intrigued by challenging myself to do things that I'm not necessarily comfortable with. No one hired me for this because they saw me act in a film before. Think they're putting faith in me that I can do this, and that gives me some energy."
The movie will play in select theaters and on-demand on January 22nd. (People)
