The “Friday Night Lights” alum has signed on for the streaming service’s latest foray into original programming, a new psychological thriller series from “Damages” creators Todd A. Kessler, Glenn Kessler and Daniel Zelman. The 13-episode series will center on a family of adult siblings whose old wounds are reopened when their black sheep eldest brother returns to the fold.
