It's not quite the full-scale sequel to Pure Country that so many George Strait fans would love, but Strait is slated to have a small role in an upcoming film, A Pure Country Gift. The same director for Pure Country will direct this movie.

Details on the movie are somewhat slim at this point, but for those of you who will be at the CMA Awards Wednesday night, here is a great opportunity.

A concert scene will be filmed at Nashville's Municipal Auditorium on Wednesday from 10:00am-4:00pm. Food will be provided by the Loveless Cafe and attendees can register for prizes, including the chance to be a walk-on extra in the movie. For those going, be sure to wear your best 'country-western' duds.

No word on if Straight himself will be a the taping on Wednesday. It is rumoured that Katrina Elam will be performing, and while they expect several celebrities to attend, no additional celebs have been specifically mentioned.
