Eric plays Ennis, a young rancher who falls for the Dutton's daughter Elsa (played by Isobel May), and he has shared that Tim kept in character even when the cameras weren't rolling to "intimidate" Eric, revealing that although Tim was the "big brother" on set, always singing or "goofing off", the real-life father-of-three also liked to riff on his character.

Eric explained that when the cameras stopped rolling Tim was "a lot more method than I was expecting him to be on certain days" and "there would be times where I would just catch him just staring at me when we weren't even filming".
Speaking to Wide Open Country, he added: "He would just be on the other side of the room, just like really giving me a glare, trying to intimidate me.

"Of course, it worked every single time. And he's, like, still really intense."
Luckily it was all in jest and the pair would always laugh about it at the end of the day, but Eric concluded: "He's pretty good about putting that fear of God in somebody with those eyes."
