Dennis Quaid goes Vegas, Wes Anderson wows Cannes, Kyle Chandler turns FBI with Scorsese & DiCaprio
... It’s easy to imagine actor Kyle Chandler (Friday Night Lights) as a Texan. I mean, he was so real as Coach Taylor in the TV series that earned him an Emmy
as Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series last year. His character
was the embodiment of a small town high school football coach in the
Lone Star State.
So, though Chandler may not have been born here, I hereby proclaim, with
absolutely no authority whatsoever, that he is an Honorary Texan. And
he does have more ties to Texas. Chandler’s brother, Brian Chandler, is a
Houston attorney. And when I went to Austin to lobby Texas legislators
for more film production incentives, there was my Honorary Texan,
helping us convince them.
Scorcese? DiCaprio? I’d say our coach has scored a career touchdown!
