It’s been almost six years since the world met Deacon Claybourne. When Nashville premiered in 2012, Charles Esten moved to the real-life Nashville to take on the starring role as singer, songwriter, lover, friend, uncle, brother, and eventually husband and father.
The world has fallen in love with Claybourne, and Esten already feels emotional about heading into the final season of the show.
NASHVILLE — Hardcore "Nashies" might find this hard to believe, but there's a silver lining to the news that TV's Nashville will end after its sixth season — which premieres Jan. 4 on CMT.
This time, everyone involved — from the writers to the cast, crew and loyal viewers — knows exactly when the story will be finished.
It’s hard to imagine any other actor playing the part of Nashville‘s Deacon Claybourne. The role was made for Charles Esten.
And it has forever changed his life and the lives of his immediate family. After six years of filming the drama in the Tennessee capital, Esten has decided to make the city of Nashville his forever home.
