Yesterday, Maddie and Marc Abraham (director) attended the premiere of I Saw the Light at the Calgary International Film Festival. I have added 24 pictures to the gallery!

CALGARYHERALD.COM — […] Hasson, who grew up in the south, in North Carolina, was the sole cast member to attend the Calgary premiere.

The 20-year-old actress expressed admiration for Billie Jean, Williams’ second wife, who met him when she was 19, having already been married, had a child and gotten divorced.

“She meets Hank when he’s playing at the (Grand Old) Opry,” she says. “He sees her out of the corner of his eye, she’s sitting in one of the box seats, and he says, that’s the girl. I’m gonna marry her.

The movie, she said, was not unlike a country and western song.

“(It’s) the epitome of a country and western song,” she said. “He had a lot of sweet, fun amazing times and a lot of bluesy times — the highs and the lows and the in betweens.” […]

The movie “Good After Bad” has officially wrapped production in Houston earlier this week. 23 pictures of Maddie on the set have been added to the gallery.

Deadline reports that Maddie has been cast in the movie Good After Bad

DEADLINE — Melora Walters, Maddie Hasson and Billy Burke have been cast in Good After Bad, an indie from first-time feature director Anne-Marie Hess. The film follows the relationship between a bullied student, Shelly (Hasson), whose home life is in shambles, and a wealthy eccentric, Wes (Burke), with no friends and issues with women. Things take a turn when Wes offers to become the teen’s guardian. Walters will portray Shelly’s mother, Victoria, a former society type now feeling the aftereffects of years of hard living who is manic, off her meds and living with an alcoholic ex-con.

Hasson’s role as Shelly is a smart, attractive, high school outcast and aspiring songwriter described as artistic, perceptive and vulnerable. Desperate for structure and a place to fit in, Shelly is very grateful when Wes comes into her life. Good After Bad is produced by Matt Leutwyler via his Accelerated Matter production/distribution banner. Morgan Spurlock is exec producing through his Warrior Poets banner.

Hasson will next be seen in the Hank Williams, Sr. biopic I Saw The Light, and was recently seen on ABC Family’s Twisted. She’s repped by UTA, Coast To Coast Talent Group and The Beddingfield Company.

Congrats Maddie!
