There is good news for Virgin River fans. Production has begun on season six of the Netflix drama based on the books by Robyn Carr. In addition, a prequel of the romantic drama is in development.
Starring Alexandra Breckenridge, Martin Henderson, Tim Matheson, Annette O’Toole, Lauren Hammersley, Colin Lawrence, Grayson Gurnsey, and Sarah Dugdale, the series follows Mel Monroe (Breckenridge) as she moves to a small town after the death of her husband. While there, she meets and falls in love with a bar owner and former Marine named Jack (Henderson).
Breckenridge and Henderson announced the start of production on Instagram.
Season six will look at the relationship between Mel’s mother and birth father, Everett Reid. The pair’s relationship will be shown in flashbacks, and their casting is ongoing.
If the reception to the storyline is positive, viewers could see a spin-off showing the romance of Elliot and Mel’s Mother. Patrick Sean Smith is writing the spin-off in its current development stage, and he spoke about what viewers will see in season six recently. He said the following about the Netflix series, per Deadline:
“What we’re exploring more in season six is who Everett Reid is, what his backstory is, what his connection to Virgin River was when he met her mom and then also what it is today.”
The premiere date for Virgin River season six will be announced later.
