Lifetime Releases Trailer for New Movie About Patsy Cline & Loretta Lynn [Watch]

Lifetime released the first trailer for its new friendship flick, Patsy & Loretta, which chronicles the real-life bond between Patsy Cline and Loretta Lynn in the 1950s and ’60s.

Before her death in a plane crash in 1963, Patsy was an established star who took up-and-comer Loretta under her wing to help her navigate the male-dominated world of country music.

Starring roles feature Megan Hilty as Patsy and Jessie Mueller as Loretta. Filmed in Nashville in the spring, Patsy & Loretta was directed by Callie Khouri, who created Nashville.

β€œI sure loved Patsy,” said Loretta via Facebook. β€œIt broke my heart when we lost her. We always had lots of fun together. This movie is coming out this Fall.”

Patsy & Loretta is set to air on Lifetime on October 19 at 7 p.m. CT.
