Will Taylor Kitsch return for 'Friday Night Lights' reboot? Here's what he says
Taylor Kitsch is staying off the field. The "American Primeval" star, 44, has revealed he won't return to star in the upcoming reboot of "Friday Night Lights." Speaking to The Wrap at the Aug. 4 premiere of "The Terminal List: Dark Wolf," Kitsch confirmed he was "asked to do" the new show but isn't interested. "Yeah, I'm not going back," he said, shaking his head. At the same event, Kitsch told "Access" he hasn't spoken to his former "Friday Night Lights" costar Kyle Chandler about the project. But while he appears to have closed the door on a regular role in the reboot, Kitsch left open the possibility of a short appearance. "I'll do a cameo," he told "Access." "I would do one. It's got to be out of control, though." Kitsch starred as Tim Riggins on the original "Friday Night Lights," which centers on a high school football team in Texas and aired for five seasons from 2006 to 2011. It was based on the 1990 nonfiction book and 2004 film of the same name. Taylor Kitsch talks 'Terminal List' betrayal, 'Dark Wolf' prequel with Chris Pratt In December, Peacock confirmed a "new adaptation" of "Friday Night Lights" is in the works. According to the streamer, the show would take place "in the aftermath of a devastating hurricane, when a ragtag high school football team and their damaged interim coach make an unlikely bid for a Texas High School State Championship. Through their unexpected rise, the football team becomes a beacon of light for their town." Original series showrunner Jason Katims is returning for the new series, as is director Peter Berg and producer Brian Grazer. No casting for the reboot has been announced.

"I'm always flattered," he said. "Never say never. But I would come in and do something maybe for an episode or something, but I don't want to go and do the whole thing." For his part, Chandler, who played coach Eric Taylor on "Friday Night Lights," told the "Today" show in January he hadn't heard anything about the reboot and hadn't received a call about reprising his role. Connie Britton, who played Eric's wife Tami Taylor, also told Parade in a March interview that the new show is "barely on" her radar.

Jensen Ackles' ‘Countdown' storms global charts despite brutal critic reviews
Jensen Ackles is riding high once again as his new Prime Video series Countdown surges in popularity across the globe. Despite launching to a lukewarm 31% critic score on Rotten Tomatoes, the high-octane thriller has soared into the Top 10 streaming charts in more than 25 countries, including the U.S. and U.K. Audience response has been far more enthusiastic, with Countdown currently boasting a 72% rating on Popcornmeter. Initially dismissed as a Terminal List knockoff, Countdown is now proving to be far more than that. Ackles stars as a former black-ops operative pulled back into the field amid a web of government lies and a deadly countdown. His performance has drawn comparisons to Chris Pratt's James Reece, but many fans say Ackles brings more heart, grit, and intensity to the role. The series was created by veteran showrunner Derek Haas, known for launching the One Chicago franchise (Chicago Fire, P.D., and Med) and co-writing action hits like Wanted and 2 Fast 2 Furious. With Haas' fast-paced storytelling and Ackles' undeniable screen presence, Countdown mixes emotional stakes with adrenaline-pumping action. Ackles is joined by a powerhouse cast including Jessica Camacho (Bosch: Legacy), Eric Dane (Euphoria), and Violett Beane (The Flash). Together, they drive a tense narrative filled with conspiracies, betrayals, and nail-biting suspense. The show's structure, layered with twists and constant escalation, makes it perfect binge material. As buzz builds online, Prime Video appears to have a surprise summer hit on its hands. Ackles, who rose to fame with Supernatural, is also set to return as Soldier Boy in The Boys Season 5 next year and lead the newly announced prequel Vought Rising. From underdog to international streaming phenomenon, Countdown is a comeback story both for Ackles and for character-driven action TV.
