Virgin River fans issue plea for unexpected season 7 reunion - and it's more likely than you might think

Netflix series Virgin River already has a star-studded cast, but fans are hoping that a seventh season will see the addition of a new character played by a TV icon The ensemble cast of Virgin River, which includes numerous television stalwarts, could be set to expand with the introduction of a new star in its anticipated seventh season. Devotees of the celebrated Netflix drama, centring on Mel Monroe (portrayed by Alexandra Breckenridge) and her romance with town bar proprietor Jack Sheridan (Martin Henderson), are eagerly awaiting the forthcoming series. ‌ In the interim, fans have been enthusiastically theorising and debating potential plot twists following the mysterious vanishing act of Charmaine (Lauren Hammersley) amidst Mel and Jack's nuptials. ‌ One fervent viewer took their theory to Reddit, suggesting a potential addition to the cast, which would also serve as a heartwarming reunion for ex-Stargate SG-1 actress Teryl Rothery, known for her role as Muriel St. Claire. An online discussion was sparked with the query: "Anyone have any particular actors they'd like to see guest star on the show for whatever reason?", reports the Mirror US. "This is purely self-indulgent on my part but since I grew up as a huge Stargate fan I'd love to see Amanda Tapping (Sam Carter) solely to get an onscreen reunion with Teryl Rothery since they were both on SG-1 together lol. "Afaik they're good friends irl too, so I think it'd be cute if they got a bit meta with it and had AT play some old actor friend of Muriel's who visits town for a few episodes." The character of Muriel has been through the wringer recently, grappling with breast cancer, leaving her and those close to her battling the emotional fallout of her illness throughout the previous season. ‌ She enjoyed the support of a new romantic relationship with Dr Cameron Hayek (Mark Ghanimé), but sadly, he ended things to reconcile with his former fiancée. Ghanimé is confirmed not to be returning as a regular in season seven, leaving a significant void in Muriel's ongoing storyline. Once again needing a shoulder to lean on, what could be more comforting than the return of an old friend for Muriel - or the introduction of a new one - portrayed by a familiar face? ‌ Get Netflix free with Sky from £15 Sky Get the deal here Product Description Not only are the duo still close, but Tapping even resides in Vancouver, where Virgin River is shot. ‌ Making a brief guest appearance or even staying on as a recurring character should be no issue for the Stargate legend, who shows no signs of ending her acting career anytime soon. Mel actress Breckenridge recently confirmed that filming for the seventh series will be finished "soon", so we could see more cast additions announced in the coming weeks. Could there be a surprise sci-fi reunion in the next series of Netflix's popular small-town romance? Keep your eyes open. Virgin River is available to stream on Netflix.
