00:00Are there any Heart of Dixie, Friday Night Lights people that you would love to bring
00:03over to Ginny and Georgia? I know Minka is now part of the Netflix family as well.
00:08We always kind of sometimes see crossovers. Well, you know, I should keep it going. I mean,
00:11Cress Williams and I worked together on Friday Night Lights. And then we worked together on
00:16Heart of Dixie. And then I worked with Breanne Howey on Heart of Dixie. And now we're working
00:20together here. So like, maybe Cress should come along and get Cress over here for the third time.
00:25I don't need any more good looking guys though on the show. I'm already competing with Zion
00:28and with Joe. No, but I have been so fortunate to work with so many, not only incredibly gifted
00:35actors, but incredible humans. Still friends with Rachel, still friends with Wilson. Like
00:41Willie and I talk a lot, like still to this day and from Friday Night Lights, like Zach Guilford
00:46and I are like, I would love it if Zach would swing by, you know, like, come on, get him on the show
00:51for a minute. That can play anything. But I mean, Gaius, Charles and I are still good friends. I mean,
00:56it's just the list goes on and on. So anybody we could get from those shows. And I know Sarah
01:01would also 100% Sarah Lampard, our creator would 100%. Oh, you'd get the fans going crazy. Yeah,
01:07you really would. I know you said that you would be open to joining the reboot or making an appearance
01:12on a reboot for Friday Night Lights. Have those conversations been happening since? No, they haven't.
01:16I haven't gotten a phone call or anything. I think the thing with Friday Night Lights is
01:20the movie. And it's so funny. People who have seen the movie just think that, you know, the show is
01:26set in Permian, but it's not. It's set in Dillon. It's a brand new imaginary city, actually. And from
01:32what I understand for the new one, it's going to be a different town. So does it make sense for Jason
01:37to show up? Who knows? He's a sports agent now in New York, NIL, name, image, and licensing. That's a
01:43whole, and likeness licensing is a whole new thing for high school kids going into college. So maybe
01:48Jason could come and scout some players down there. But we finished our version of Friday Night
01:54Lights or the story of Dillon. We left it in such a good way. The story of Coach Taylor and Tammy
01:58Taylor. And they left that town. I think when they left that town, it kind of, you know, closed the
02:04book for us as the viewers on Dillon. So wherever this new town is, you know, if it makes sense for
02:09me to go 100%, I would love to work with that creative team, with any of those actors again. But I
02:15think they have a new story to tell. And I'm sure it's going to be just as good, if not
02:18even more impactful than what we were able to tell. Definitely. You know, with Pete Berg
02:22and Jason Kadams, starting at the top, they're just going to build something special like they
02:26did with us.
