The series finale of “Friday Night Lights” proved to be a mirror for Taylor Kitsch, who decided to keep his homestead in the same state in which he spent years filming. “Texas Forever,” he told GQ in 2012, recalling Tim Riggins’s famous line from the show. “It looks like it’s going to be that way, too,” he added. Kitsch relocated to Austin in 2012, buying acres of bare land to build his dream home.
“I think I chose to build in Austin because, in Austin, I can come and escape and be myself,” he explained to the publication. Kitsch is more reserved in his celebrity, and certainly not one pining for red carpet events and press tours. “Whatever it is that motivates other people — fame, money, celebrity, more followers, I don’t [expletive] know — it was never like that,” Kitsch admitted in his interview with The New York Times. Instead, the actor simply wants a place to call his own and lay his roots, while still returning to the industry to take on roles that intrigue himself and others. “I just wanted to be a character actor that buzzed into certain things and, hopefully, made you evoke something,” he shared.
Kitsch eventually made his dreams a reality, building himself an Austin mansion on a lake, with a gorgeous pool to take in the sweeping water views. Texas wasn’t exactly forever, however, as he ultimately sold the property in 2021.
