According to the The AV Club, Kyle Chandler, who plays Coach Taylor on Friday Night Lights, may be attached to a new show that will be filming in Chicago this June.
The show, Powers, follows two detectives who hunt down criminal superheroes. It is based on a comic book series by Brian Michael Bendis and Michael Avon Oeming.
Chandler has not officially signed on to the series, but he is currently in talks to join the cast. The final season of Friday Night Lights begins Friday on NBC.
I hope Kyle Chandler does join the cast of this show, even though it will be a major move going from FNL to a series based on comic books. Bad news, most series related to such characters tend to get cancelled, see The Event and the no yet cancelled, but soon to be Human Target.
Would love to have Kyle back in the Chicagoland area. YES!
