In a recent interview, Hayden Panettiere, known for her role in the hit show 'Nashville', revealed that filming the series had a profound emotional impact on her, describing it as a highly distressing experience.
Panettiere played the role of Juliette Barnes, a popular country singer, in the TV series Nashville, which was on air from 2012 to 2018. The actress has been candid about her battles with alcohol addiction, opioid abuse, and post-partum depression. In a recent interview, she reveals that the show's writers drew heavily from her own personal experiences to shape her character's storylines, resulting in a challenging filming process for her.
Right from the start, it felt like I was dating a football player, and then Juliette starts dating one too," Panettiere explains. "And then they portray her as an alcoholic. Then they make her abandon her daughter and go to some crazy place in Europe, and it was obvious that they weren't being creative. They weren't coming up with new storylines. They were just taking inspiration from my life and putting their own twist on it. And just like that, it's done."
According to Panettiere, her time on Nashville was personally challenging as she felt she was reliving her own experiences while performing, despite it being a fulfilling period for her career.
Panettiere plans to start a tour called "A Conversation With Hayden Panettiere" in three different cities. She aims to inspire and support those who are facing similar challenges as she has experienced.
