Willie Nelson – known for his tunes like "Always on My Mind" and "On the Road Again" – surprisingly proved to be a natural on the big screen. Nelson made his first acting appearance opposite Robert Redford and Jane Fonda in “The Electric Horseman” and later starred in movies such as the western “Barbarosa” alongside Gary Busey, and 2005's "The Dukes of Hazzard" with Jessica Simpson and Burt Reynolds (pictured).
