What the Cast of Friday Night Lights Is Doing Today

Connie Britton is a legendary actress who has over 40 TV and movie roles to her name. It all started in 1995 when Connie was cast to play Molly McMullen in the film The Brothers McMullen, and in that same year, she acted alongside disgraced comedian Ellen DeGeneres in her first sitcom, Ellen.

After her role as a counselor-turned-principal-turned-counselor came to an end on Friday Night Lights, she had already secured an acting job to play Vivien Harmon on FX’s American Horror Story: Murder House and ABC’s Nashville. For her portrayal of Tami Taylor, Connie won a Satellite Award for Best Actress in a TV Drama Series.
