The beloved 2004 film based on H.G. Bissinger's book will be available to stream on Prime Video starting January 31st. The news comes after the film left Netflix in December.

Last month, Deadline reported that a Friday Night Lights reboot was in the works at Peacock. What's Happening With the 'Friday Night Lights' Reboot?
