"What a break that was for me," Kyle Chandler says of his time on "Early Edition", in which his character, Gary, received tomorrow’s newspaper and therefore knew the future.

"My daughter had just been born, we had just bought a house, and I got this show," he recalls. "The first thing I did was add up [my salary] for the season. I was like, 'Wahoo! We’re not going to starve.'"



The role took Chandler back to Chicago, where he grew up.

"There's a big film community in Chicago, and the crew all knew each other so well. A lot of them were brothers, cousins, uncles. And in Chicago, someone says something wrong to you, you start pounding on each other, so there would be fights. But they were all related, so it was great. They'd come back inside with their arms around each other."
