New CMT Trailer Previews Midseason Return of 'Nashville' (VIDEO)
CMT Rachel Bilson and Kaitlin Doubleday join CMT's Nashville as new Season 5 episodes begin
CMT has released a trailer for a new run of Nashville Season 5 episodes that air Thursdays beginning June 1.
The new promo spotlights Juliette's (Hayden Panettiere) struggle to return to the spotlight, Deacon's (Charles Esten) struggles as a single dad, Scarlett's (Clare Bowen) baby-daddy drama, Zach's (Cameron Scoggins) steamy new relationship—and a few exciting new additions.
Late of Hart of Dixie, Rachel Bilson joins Nashville as Alyssa Greene, a Silicon Valley (ooooh!) marketing expert who is brought in to up Highway 65's profile. Tough on the outside, but possibly tender on the inside, Rachel proudly hates country music (oooooh!) — but she loves a good win at the office. And that's all that counts to her.
