Television fans, get ready! One of the biggest emergency response dramas on TV, 9-1-1, has chosen Nashville as the setting for its next spin-off, and this could be a game changer for Tennessee’s entertainment industry.

With the show’s strong following and history of long-running success, this move has the potential to bring years of economic growth, job opportunities, and national attention to the Volunteer State.

🎞️ What This Means for Tennessee 🎞️

Landing a major TV series like 9-1-1 Nashville is a huge win for Tennessee, and if history has taught us anything, it could be just the beginning. Georgia, specifically Atlanta, took a similar path years ago, investing in the film industry and attracting major productions like The Walking Dead, Stranger Things, and the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Today, Georgia is a multi-billion-dollar powerhouse in Hollywood, proving that the right combination of tax incentives, talent, and infrastructure can transform a state into a filmmaking hub.

So, why is this important? Because 9-1-1 isn't just any show—it’s a highly successful primetime drama with a dedicated audience. Most network TV series that perform well last anywhere from 8 to 10 seasons, meaning Tennessee could see a decade or more of production, job creation, and investment. Here’s what this could mean for the state:

âś… Millions of dollars injected into the local economy – Think hotel stays, catering, local businesses benefiting from cast and crew spending.
âś… More film industry jobs – From camera operators to set designers, this could create hundreds of new opportunities in the state.
âś… A reputation boost – Just as Atlanta became a go-to filming location, Tennessee could now be on Hollywood’s radar for future projects.

If 9-1-1 Nashville is a hit, don’t be surprised if more studios start eyeing Tennessee for their next big productions.

📽️ Chattanooga, Murfreesboro, & Memphis 📽️

While Nashville is getting the spotlight now, other Tennessee cities could soon follow if the project is a success. Chattanooga, Murfreesboro, and Memphis are all strong contenders for future productions, and here’s why:

🎥 Chattanooga – Known for its scenic views and outdoor attractions, Chattanooga could be perfect for adventure-based shows or crime dramas set against its stunning mountainous backdrop. A series similar to Yellowstone or Ozark could thrive here.

🎥 Murfreesboro – One of Tennessee’s fastest-growing cities, Murfreesboro offers a small-town feel with big-city energy. It could be ideal for coming-of-age stories, family dramas, or even legal dramas set in the heart of the state.

🎥 Memphis – Home of the blues, Memphis already has a rich history in music and entertainment, making it a natural choice for shows centered around music, crime, or historical dramas. With its deep roots in American culture, it wouldn’t be surprising to see a series showcasing the city’s legendary music scene or its complex history.

If the Nashville 9-1-1 series does well, it could pave the way for other productions to explore Tennessee’s diverse settings, boosting local economies across the state.

🎭 Jackson’s Role in Things 🎭

While Jackson may not be the main location for a big Hollywood production, that doesn’t mean it won’t benefit. Even if major filming takes place in Nashville, there’s always a need for smaller locations, cameo shots, and supporting cast members. Jackson could play a role in:

🎬 Small Cameo Appearances – Scenes that require smaller city backdrops could bring filming crews to Jackson, even if just for a few days at a time.
🎭 Opportunities for Local Actors – With productions happening in the state, local actors, extras, and crew members will have more chances to break into the industry without having to relocate.
💰 Boost for Local Businesses – When Hollywood comes to town, it’s not just the film crew that benefits. Restaurants, hotels, and other local businesses see an increase in revenue from visiting productions.

Beyond direct involvement in filming, a growing film industry in Tennessee could have long-term benefits for Jackson, including:

  • More investment in creative arts programs

  • Opportunities for local universities and colleges to offer film-related courses

  • Increased tourism as people visit filming locations

The bottom line? While Jackson may not be the next Hollywood, it could still play a part in Tennessee’s rising entertainment industry and that’s an exciting possibility.

The arrival of 9-1-1 Nashville is more than just a TV show announcement, it’s a potential turning point for Tennessee’s entertainment industry. If this series succeeds, we could see a wave of new opportunities, investments, and productions moving into the state, transforming Tennessee into a filmmaking hotspot.
