According to a recent interview, Hayden Panettiere, known for her role in the hit show 'Nashville', revealed that filming the show had a profound impact on her, describing the experience as "highly distressing."
Panettiere, known for her role as Juliette Barnes in Nashville from 2012 to 2018, has been candid about her battles with alcohol, opioids, and post-partum depression. In a recent interview, she reveals that the show's writers heavily drew inspiration from her own experiences, 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," Panettiere explains. "And then they portrayed her as an alcoholic. After that, they had her abandon her daughter and go to some crazy place in Europe, and it was quite obvious… They weren't being creative in coming up with new storylines. They were just taking inspiration from my own life and putting their own twist on it. And just like that, it's all done."
According to Panettiere, her time on the Nashville show was fulfilling in terms of her career. However, she found it to be deeply distressing as she felt she was reliving her own life through her acting.
Panettiere plans to start 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 the past.
