When Tim McGraw talks about working on the Paramount series 1883, he often references that he and his wife Faith Hill were constantly very hot or freezing.

Tim posted a throwback image of himself on the set dressed in the Civil War outfit laying on the ground for the scene he did on the show with Tom Hanks. He captioned the photo, "Flashback to shooting #1883. Dang, it was HOT that day!"

One fan asked, "Did Hanks take this?" Tom's wife Rita Wilson, who also appeared in the series, responded, "I remember it well! A scorcher!!!"

We've been talking about it for a few months now, the fact that Tim McGraw and wife Faith Hill play the Duttons in the new 1883 show on Paramount Plus, which is the prequel to the hugely popular Yellowstone.

In just about a week (12/19), the show will premiere on Paramount Plus.

Tim McGraw Retweeted 1883 Official @1883Official, "One week to go. Tag a friend who needs to know about #1883TV!"

The McGraws rubbed elbows at the Las Vegas premiere this weekend (12/11) with their co-stars in the new show including Sam Elliot and many photos were taken. We've got a Gallery of the big night.
