Lennon Stella plays Maddie Conrad, one of the daughters of Rayna James on the ABC drama, Nashville. In the second season of the show her story line started to get a bit meatier and more dramatic, with the revelation that Deacon Clayborne and not Teddy Conrad was her biological dad. While it might seem like a bigger challenge to act in the more dramatic scenes, Lennon says, “I honestly find the sadness and like the more upset acting, or that side of the character is actually a lot, it comes easier I guess. And the challenging part is actually acting the really excited parts, and the really like giddy (stuff).”
Lennon is excited to get to stretch a little bit more as an actress. She says, “It’s been super cool to get more of like a story line, rather than just scenes. It’s a cool thing to get to work through, just having an actual character.”
New episodes of NASHVILLE return to ABC on Wednesday, March 16th.
