‘Virgin River' Cast Marks Last Day Of Filming For Season 7: 'Fingers Crossed More To Come'

It's only a matter of months until viewers can be transported back to a fictitious small town nestled in Northern California — as Netflix's Virgin River has wrapped filming its seventh season. Marking the occasion, cast members took to social media to celebrate. Benjamin Hollingsworth shared a joint post with Kandyse McClure, which included selfies of the two alongside fellow co-star Zibby Allen. 'First day of Summer and Last day of Filming Season 7 of Virgin River. ☀️ @netflix,' he wrote.

Meanwhile, Allen shared some additional photos alongside stars Alexandra Breckenridge and Martin Henderson. 'VRS7 wrapped. These lives within these lives… 💚,' she captioned the pics. 'I hit the scene partner jackpot,' Hollingsworth wrote in a comment underneath the post. Annette O'Toole took to Instagram for a simple post featuring her pup in a travel carrier, writing, 'Bye Vancouver!' Colin Lawrence posted a video tribute to the season, saying, 'And that, my friends, is a wrap on Season 7 for John 'Preacher' Middleton. Oh gosh, what can I tell you? Another stellar season, in my humble opinion. This show has been the most fun to work on. I've been so blessed to have been a part of this for the last seven seasons. Fingers crossed more to come,' and adding that there are 'more laughs, more tears, just a lot of emotion' in the forthcoming installment. While there is no official release date for Season 7, its preceding season bowed on the streamer in December 2024, and the one before that premiered September 2023. As such, it's possible that Season 7 could come to Netflix late this year. As Deadline reported earlier in March, Season 7 features new recurring characters played by Sara Canning (The Vampire Diaries) and Cody Kearsley (Riverdale). The former's storyline is based on an existent plotline from Robyn Carr's expansive, eponymous novel series, with Canning playing an ex-cop who was shot in the line of duty and is now working for the state medical board as an investigator. She comes to Virgin River to investigate Doc's (Tim Matheson) practice but runs into a friend with whom she wouldn't mind catching up. Speaking to Deadline last December, series showrunner Patrick Sean Smith confirmed the fight for Virgin River's clinic will be a major storyline this year, following the investigation into Doc's actions while saving a patient, which led to a bait-and-switch ploy for the clinic to be taken over by a large hospital network.
