When Hope Calls will return to Great American Family for its second season in early 2025, and the series has added a 90210 alum to its cast. According to Deadline, Trevor Donovan will appear in a two-episode guest arc on the drama series starting with episode three.
When Hope Calls is a spin-off of the Hallmark series When Calls the Heart. Morgan Kohan, Jocelyn Hudon, Ryan-James Hatanaka, Greg Hovanessian, Wendy Crewson, Hanneke Talbot, and Jefferson Brown star in the Great American Family series, set in the small town of Brookfield circa 1916. The story follows two sisters who run an orphanage in the small town of Brookfield, circa 1916.
Donovan will play “Constable Jim Reynolds, an experienced Mountie known for his strong presence and skills in the field.” His role may be extended, or he could pop up elsewhere if another spin-off is ordered.
The drama’s first season ran on Hallmark Channel and was renewed for a second season in 2020. The show then moved to Great American Family, where a Christmas special aired in December 2021, but the series went into limbo after that.
It was recently revealed that an eight-episode season will arrive in early 2025. The exact premiere date will be announced later.
