Showtime’s George & Tammy star Jessica Chastain revealed she had to get over her “initial judgment” of Tammy Wynette and her hit “Stand By Your Man” to portray the country music legend.
The more Chastain learned about Wynette, the more she saw she had the wrong idea of what she was about. Once she realized the iconic song had a different meaning than she thought, she concluded the singer wasn’t the doormat some people mistook her for.
