A teaser promo clip for the spinoff show 9-1-1: Nashville's story details are not clear just yet, and it seems that casting is still underway, but a new promo for the series gives an idea of what viewers can expect.
Per the TV Promos YouTube channel, the promotional teaser hints at how 9-1-1: Nashville will stand out from the rest of the franchise. The prompt starts with a camera close up of a guitar setting alight, and as the camera pans across the different parts of the guitar as the fire rages, with writing stating that creator Ryan Murphy "Expands the 9-1-1 universe." A cover of Johnny Cash's song 'Ring of Fire' plays over the cast list (which includes Chris O'Donnell and LeAnn Rimes), as the teaser ends, revealing that the series will premiere this Fall on ABC. Check out the promo below:
What This Means For 9-1-1: Nashville
The Show Will Likely Wear Its Southern Influences On Its Sleeve
One of the defining features of the trailer is the combination of musical history, combined with the beauty and destructive nature of fire as a powerful natural element. Nashville is famed for its extensive country music scene, which the promo evokes perfectly, with a guitar on fire, and a song by one-time resident Johnny Cash. This suggests that music and the destructive power of nature will be two core themes of 9-1-1: Nashville as a show, and both fire and country music could well feature heavily throughout the show's run.
The show has the opportunity to take a unique approach through its use of music, and evoke some of the powerful traditions of Nashville.
ing this idea further is the casting of country music superstar LeAnn Rimes, who is set to star in an as yet undisclosed role, as well as Kimberly Williams-Paisley, who was a prominent member of the casting of Chris O'Donnell, long-time NCIS stalwart, is a shrewd move by the show, and should help it attain longevity.
Our Take On 9-1-1: Nashville
The Show Could Be A Breath Of Fresh Air For The Franchise
The 9-1-1 franchise has performed well during its run, but the recent cancelation of 9-1-1: Lone Star has left a gap in the franchise, and the hope will be that 9-1-1: Nashville can fill that gap. The show has the opportunity to take a unique approach through its use of music, and evoke some of the powerful traditions of Nashville. What's more, there are also plenty of options for crossovers between 9-1-1: Nashville and 9-1-1 in the future as well, which could make for exciting and compelling story arcs moving forward.
