This is Joe Coughlin’s show – whoever plays him will be in every key scene and be charged with charting a young man’s ten-year journey from a callow youth to a businessman and father burdened by responsibility and regret. One can almost hear the studio heads screaming “Channing Tatum!” out their office doors, but Joe needs to be a little less imposing when we first meet him. A young Ewan McGregor would have worked really well, but we don’t have a DeLorean with a flux capacitor handy. We think this would be a great opportunity for Ben “Comeback” Affleck to extend a hand to another young actor who got lost in Megabudget Land and cast Taylor Kitsch. The story follows Joe from approximately ages twenty to thirty. Kitsch is just north of thirty, but it was only six years ago that he was cast as a high school student. He can project strength without being imposing and vulnerability without being pathetic. Anyone who could bring Tim Riggins to life deserves a second shot at showing multiplex audiences his stuff.
