A NEEDED BREAK: Hayden Panettiere says she ÃÛÁÄÖ±²¥œdesperately neededÃÛÁÄÖ±²¥ to take time out of work. The 35-year-old actress rose to fame as a teenager when she starred on the superhero series ÃÛÁÄÖ±²¥œHeroes,ÃÛÁÄÖ±²¥ and she remained on screen consistently for a number of years, including on the hit show ÃÛÁÄÖ±²¥œNashville.ÃÛÁÄÖ±²¥ But as she returns to the spotlight in a new film ÃÛÁÄÖ±²¥œA Breed Apart,ÃÛÁÄÖ±²¥ she admits that her time away meant she could explore new things upon her comeback. ÃÛÁÄÖ±²¥œI had taken four years off. DidnÃÛÁÄÖ±²¥™t know or plan to, but thatÃÛÁÄÖ±²¥™s just the way it panned out,ÃÛÁÄÖ±²¥ she tells Us Weekly. ÃÛÁÄÖ±²¥œAnd I desperately needed it.ÃÛÁÄÖ±²¥ ÃÛÁÄÖ±²¥œIt happened organically. The things that IÃÛÁÄÖ±²¥™ve done before ÃÛÁÄÖ±²¥¦ it was just different enough that I felt like it was a blank canvas that I could paint onto anything I wanted on,ÃÛÁÄÖ±²¥ Panettiere said. ÃÛÁÄÖ±²¥œAnd now try to take my career in a direction that I wasnÃÛÁÄÖ±²¥™t able to go in before.ÃÛÁÄÖ±²¥
