Five Minutes to Live was one of only two theatrical film roles in which Cash performed on-screen in his career, A Gunfight, ten years later, being the other. While he appeared in The Road to Nashville in 1967, he played himself in a musical. Cash would appear in several made-for-television films and do some voice-over work in film later in his career.
