Sturgill Simpson to Make Television Debut on CBS Drama, ‘One Dollar’

“We’re all doomed.” On Thursday August, 30th Sturgill Simpson makes his debut as a television actor when One Dollar airs its first episode via CBS’ streaming subscription service.

"One Dollar is a mystery set in a small rust belt town in post-recession America, where a one-dollar bill changing hands connects a group of characters involved in a shocking multiple murder. The path of the dollar bill and point of view in each episode paint a picture of a modern American town with deep class and cultural divides that spill out into the open as the town’s secrets get revealed."

Simpson plays the role of Ken Fry, a former steelworker who, after losing his job at the local mill, makes his living selling stolen goods.
