In a recent interview, Hayden Panettiere, known for her role in the hit show 'Nashville', revealed that filming the series had a significant emotional impact on her, describing it as a deeply disturbing experience.
Panettiere played the role of Juliette Barnes, a country star, in the television series Nashville that aired from 2012 to 2018. Throughout her career, she has been vocal about her challenges with alcohol, opioids, and post-partum depression. In a recent interview, she revealed that the show's writers drew heavily from her personal experiences to shape her character's storylines, making the filming process particularly challenging for her.
Right from the start, it felt like I was dating a football player, and then Juliette starts dating a football player too," Panettiere expresses. "And then they made her character an alcoholic. Then they had her abandon her daughter and go to some crazy place in Europe, and it was very clear… They didn't put any effort into creating new storylines. They were simply taking inspiration from my own life and adding their own twist to it. And just like that, it's done and over with."
According to Panettiere, her time on the Nashville show was fulfilling in terms of her career, but it was also quite distressing because she felt like she was reliving her own personal experiences through her character.
Panettiere plans to begin a tour called "A Conversation With Hayden Panettiere" in three different cities. Through this tour, she aims to inspire and support individuals who are facing similar challenges as she has in her own life.
