Meet ‘Friday Night Lights’ new bad boy
New York Magazine reports that a Riggins replacement has been cast for season 5 of DirecTV/NBC’s “Friday Night Lights.”
Grey Damon (“90210,” “Greek”) has filled the role of Hastings Ruckle — that’s right, Hastings Ruckle — a “super, super hot guy” with a “dark, hippie, party-guy vibe” who, apparently, has baby-naming-challenged parents.
NBC viewers’ final year of Riggins begins when season 4 of “FNL” begins on May 7 at 7 p.m. From NBC:
As season four opens, a redistricting plan has left Dillon a town divided. After being ousted from his role as head coach at Dillon High School, Coach Taylor (Kyle Chandler) finds himself faced with the daunting task of building a football team from scratch as well as motivating and disciplining the unmanageable East Dillon Lions. Tensions follow Coach Taylor off the field as he and Tami (Connie Britton), who remains principal of West Dillon High, find themselves increasingly at odds with one another. The new year will also focus on the fate of several returning characters including last season’s graduates Tim Riggins (Taylor Kitsch), Lyla Garrity (Minka Kelly), and Matt Saracen (Zach Gilford) as well as Julie Taylor (Aimee Teegarden) and Landry Clark (Jesse Plemons).
