While not returning to season 22 of Dancing with the Stars, the reigning pro champion, Derek Hough is returning to his role as Noah West on ABC’s Nashville.

According to E Online, Hough is set to reprise his role as the co-star of Juliette Barnes  (Hayden Panettiere) biopic on Patsy Cline in mutliple episodes.  When Noah was last on the canvas he was hanging out with Juliette, when Avery (Jonathan Jackson) learned of her pregnancy and the baby daddy got jealous of Mr. West.

There is no word yet on just how Noah will return in storyline, but it would seem to reteam Houghwith Hayden Panettiere, one would suspect.  Noah was nowhere to be found during the biopic premiere, will that reason be revealed?

Nashville‘s fourth season returns Wedneday night, March 16 at 10PMET/PT with the pick-up of the highly-anticipated nuptials of Rayna (Connie Britton) and Deacon (Charles Esten).

Glad to learn Derek Hough is returning to Nashville? Might Noah make a play for Juliette’s heart this time out? Share your thoughts in the comment section below!

Could be interesting.

gre, just when I was looking forward not seeing him on DWTS, he shows up on a show l usually enjoy

I’m with you, Janet. Not a fan of Mr. Hough. But, then again, he appears to love himself enough for all of us.

Maybe the Nashville producers are hoping his story arc will give the show a little bumped in the ratings – enough so that ABC will give the country soap a fifth season. I like Derek and Nashville — I hope the show is renewed! And I hope that Derek returns to DWTS 23.

I am with you Anthony. This spring season will be key for NASHVILLE. Seems the series is always rebooting because of something or other. That upsets storylines. The arcs start and finish and then we start over in new directions so very quickly.

Hayden Panettiere Reveals Filming ‘Nashville’ was ‘Traumatizing’; Writers Used Her Personal Struggles with Addiction, Postpartum as Storylines

Nashville and former Guiding Light star, Hayden Panettiere (ex-Lizzie, GL) opened up about her final seasons on the ABC country music primetime drama, where the show touched too close to home for the actress who played lead character, Juliette Barnes.

In an interview with The Messenger, Hayden shared that during the run of the show from 2012-2018, she feels that the writers, more often that not, pulled from her real life while crafting Juliette’s storylines.

Hayden said on the years she spent filming the series that it was “also very traumatizing because I felt like I was acting out my own life.”

Previously, the actress had shared that her dependency on alcohol and opioids as a teenager led to her dependency in her adult life. In addition, Nashville told the story of Juliette’s postpartum depression, which also mirrored Panettiere’s experience who went through the same thing when her own daughter was born.

Explaining what went down behind the scenes, Hayden recalled: “Straight from the beginning, it was like, I’m dating a football player, (and then) Juliette dates a football player. And then they turned her into an alcoholic. Then they turned to her leaving her daughter and going to this crazy (place) in Europe, and it was very obvious.”

The actress added, ‘They weren’t doing their homework. They weren’t creating new storylines. They were just looking at my life and going, ‘Oh, let’s just take what she’s going through and put our little spin on it.’ And then, ta-da! It’s done and done.”

Hayden added that she didn’t have time to care of herself and the pain she was going through physically and emotionally, so she tried to watch mindless TV and shows to help her calm down. Panettiere also felt that when she knew she had to go back to the set of Nashville, she did, “anything to keep my mind off of that because I knew that next day I was going to be back at it again. I was like, tear central. I don’t even think on a soap opera that I cried as much (as I did) on Nashville.”

Hayden is set to make three upcoming appearances of her A Conversation With Hayden Panettiere live series in New York on February 23 and Washington D.C. on February 24.

So, do you think the Nashville writers literally stole creative ideas for the character of Juliette Barnes based on Hayden’s personal struggles? It certainly on paper seems so. Share your thoughts via the comment section below.
