Loretta Lynn and Patsy Cline’s personal and professional bond is the subject of a dramatic movie coming to Lifetime this Fall. The recently released trailer for Patsy & Loretta, shown above, offers a first look at Smash alum Megan Hilty portraying the iconic Cline and Broadway actress Jessie Mueller portraying Lynn.

It appears the television movie will focus on Lynn’s ascent as a country singer, Cline’s near-fatal car crash in 1961, and her untimely death in a plane crash just two years later.
