\n\t\t<\/h3>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n\t\t\tSome modern-day stars did not get their \u201cTexas Forever\u201d moment on Friday Night Lights, despite auditioning for the iconic NBC show. FNL followed a fictional high school football team in the (also made up) town of Dillon, Texas from 2006 to 2011. The team and town were played by stars Connie Britton (Tami Taylor), Kyle [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Anyone But You<\/em> helped shape Powell\u2019s view of Hollywood\u2019s output and the way it\u2019s letting audiences down.<\/p>\n\u201cOne of the things that I\u2019ve realized recently is that when studios say a genre is dead, all it means is that there\u2019s a huge opportunity, because a market is not being served,\u201d he told The Telegraph<\/em>. \u201cThe business stopped making romantic comedies, apparently, because romantic comedies weren\u2019t making any money in theaters. But my belief is there\u2019s no problem facing Hollywood that can\u2019t be solved by a really good movie.\u201d<\/p>\nThe Twisters<\/em> star is from the \u201cvast part\u201d of America that he hopes to serve with blockbusters from a bygone era. And there\u2019s no questioning that that\u2019s where Powell is most comfortable. After 15 years in Hollywood, Powell moved back to his home state of Texas this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\nThank You!<\/h3>\n

\u201cI think this is going to be good for my head, heart and soul,\u201d he told The Hollywood Reporter<\/em> at the time.<\/p>\nHowever, Powell packing his bags for Austin shouldn\u2019t be taken as settling down. The actor told CBS Mornings<\/a> in June that he barely has time to consider his future, particularly when it comes to his love life.<\/p>\n\u201cThis is a time where life is moving so fast that I don\u2019t even know if I can bring someone into it in a healthy way even if I tried,\u201d he shared. \u201cI\u2019ve realized there\u2019s new aspects and new complexities to this life and this job that I didn\u2019t even understand.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
