Friday Night Lights Casting Update

The Friday Night Lights cast is currently in flux, as usual. Who’s still on it? Who’s leaving? Who’s in, but only for a farewell story arc a la Gaius Charles and Scott Porter?

Here’s the scoop on the new season of Friday Night Lights, which returns in the fall on DirecTV for Season Four, which will then air on NBC beginning in January 2010.

EW says the following all-stars will be back as full-time cast members: Kyle Chandler, Connie Britton, Jesse Plemons, Taylor Kitsch, Aimee Teegarden, Jeremy Sumpter.

Meanwhile, these regulars for the first three seasons are moving up and moving on, but will be back for farewell acts: Adrianne Palicki, Minka Kelly, and Zach Gilford.
