The former Friday Night Lights star, fresh off starring on Paramount Network's Waco, will also produce the untitled drama that HBO has in development. Kitsch will play Chris Klug, whom Deadline describes as "a young, family oriented, drug dealer who catches the wrong end of a bad batch of dope that leaves him in a temporary vegetative state, only to discover that it was no accident and someone close to him was in fact trying to take him out. Told through flashbacks and Chris’ present-day purgatory, the series is a rich family drama full of revenge, love and humor as Chris Klug fights his way back."
