Why LeAnn Rimes Was 'Terrified' To Film 9-1-1: Nashville's Snakes On A Plane Episode

LeAnn Rimes takes TVLine inside 9-1-1: Nashville's craziest episode yet - and teases what's next after Dixie's "Lady B" bombshell.

Why LeAnn Rimes Was 'Terrified' To Film 9-1-1: Nashville's Snakes On A Plane Episode

LeAnn Rimes was apprehensive about filming the 9-1-1: Nashville episode, which paid homage to the 2006 movie Snakes on a Plane and heavily featured her character. Rimes, who has a deep-seated fear of snakes, confessed that she had recurring snake dreams as a child and had never done action-packed scenes before. Despite her initial concerns, Rimes embraced the role and found that her imagination helped her navigate the intense experience.

She also learned a great deal from Tommy Lohmann, who had worked on the original film as a camera operator. Cammie, played by Camryn Manheim, was initially mistaken for an enemy but later revealed her true loyalties. Rimes performed Amazing Grace for the passengers on the plane, a song she had often thought about serenading in case of emergencies.

Despite her character's unscathed survival, the story takes an unexpected turn when the little boy she befriends turns out to be the son of country superstar Russell Dickerson, who reveals her secret identity.
