Kyle Chandler returns as coach Eric Taylor in a "Don't Talk" PSA for the Alamo Drafthouse theater chain. The actor reprises his beloved "Friday Night Lights" role to tell movie-goers, "Turn your goddamn cell phone off!"
In the video, Taylor tries to deliver an inspirational speech in a locker room, but he's interrupted by sounds of text tones, phones ringing and camera clicks. "How am I supposed to give my inspirational speech here if you're talking and you're texting?!" a peeved Taylor says.
The video comes along with a caption which reads, "You talk and text. You ruin Coach's speech. We punt you out of the theater."
"Friday Night Lights", inspired by non-fiction book "Friday Night Lights: A Town, a Team, and a Dream" and Peter Berg's 2004 film "Friday Night Lights", ran for five seasons from 2006 until 2011 on NBC. Kyle Chandler won an Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series for his role as coach Taylor in 2011.
