Fans were shocked and dismayed at ABC's cancelation of Nashville in May, but they weren’t going down without a fight. The show officially returns to the screen in December.
After much speculation and a cliffhanger that left the future of one character in serious question, Nashville stars Connie Britton and Hayden Panettiere have been confirmed to return to the show when it begins its fifth season this fall.
Two stars of Nashville will not make the switch to CMT when season five begins. Multiple media outlets report that negotiations with the rest of the cast are going well however.
Nashville fans may be getting exactly what they've been hoping for. After a huge fan outcry and a very aggressive campaign online, the show has reportedly reached a deal to continue with a new season.
Nashville ended on a cliffhanger that left one of its most important characters hanging in the balance, and now one of the executives behind the show is speaking out about an alternate ending that would have wrapped the show on a happier note.
Much of the cast of ABC's Nashville calls Nashville home, and many say they have no plans to move even if the show is indeed finished. While executives are trying to sell the series to a new network, these nine musicians are poised to become country hitmakers, if they want to.
Though Nashville's series finale has already aired, the show may still go on. Producers have revealed that multiple networks have expressed interest in the show, and the cast are still under contract.
