He also appears in the limited edition coffee table book "About Face" by celebrity photographer John Russo.

In 2006, Kitsch was cast in his breakout role on the NBC sports teen drama television series "Friday Night Lights" based on Peter Berg's 2004 film of the same name and is set in the fictional town of Dillon, Texas.

He had to lose 35 pounds in two months to play the role of photojournalist Kevin Carter, alongside Ryan Phillippe and Malin Åkerman. In November 2010, The Hollywood Reporter named Kitsch as one of the young male actors who are "pushing – or being pushed" into taking over Hollywood as the new "A-List."

In the Disney film adaptation of "John Carter" based on Edgar Rice Burroughs's novel "A Princess of Mars," he played the title character and a confederate soldier who gets transported to Mars.
