Netflix’s hit romantic drama Virgin River is expanding its cast as Season 7 enters production, with Sara Canning (The Vampire Diaries) and Cody Kearsley (Riverdale) officially joining the series. Their addition to the show hints at fresh intrigue, romance, and drama that will keep fans engaged.
Canning’s extensive experience in television suggests she might take on a pivotal role in Virgin River, potentially shaking up the established character dynamics. Whether she plays a new town doctor, a mysterious newcomer with a hidden past, or a relative of an existing character remains to be seen. Meanwhile, Kearsley, known for his role as Moose Mason in Riverdale, could bring youthful energy to the series—perhaps as a love interest for one of the younger characters or someone with ties to Virgin River’s past.
With Season 6 ending on several cliffhangers, Season 7 is expected to deliver thrilling resolutions while introducing new conflicts. The arrival of Canning and Kearsley is sure to add complexity to ongoing storylines. Could Canning’s character be tied to Mel’s family secrets? Could Kearsley’s role bring new rivalries or alliances?
Exclusive set photos suggest an air of mystery surrounding their characters. A few shots capture Canning in deep conversation with Alexandra Breckenridge’s Mel, while Kearsley is seen interacting with Martin Henderson’s Jack. Their interactions hint at significant upcoming plot twists that fans will eagerly anticipate.
