The 34-year-old star song a series of Williams' classics, including "Why Don't You Love Me Like You Used To Do," and " Move It on Over" at an after-party following the premiere.

As the premiere was held in downtown Nashville, director Marc Abraham highlights the place's influence on the film.

"Without Nashville, there is no story. And without the people in Nashville that helped me, there is no story. So big deal for me to come down here and present the film to people who know a lot about this subject."

The film portrays Hank Williams' rise to fame and sudden death at the age of 29, through the stories of his personal relationships with women.

American actress Elizabeth Olsen, who stars Hank Williams' wife in the biopic, elaborates on women's lasting impact on this legendary country music singer's career.

"For Marc to have written such great women, which is also a testament to Hank's character. He was always surrounded by really formidable women. It's lucky that all of us got to play a different variation of a woman who stands on her own two feet and can stand up to a man who is such an icon like Hank."

'I Saw the Light' first screened in the Special Presentations at this year's Toronto International Film Festival.

It is set to hit big screens on November 27th in the US.
