When Calls the Coronary heart Season 12 closed out its run on the 2025 TV schedule in March, however manufacturing on Season 13 will fortunately start in July. Not an excessive amount of has been shared about Hope Valley’s future, however Kevin McGarry beforehand talked up his personal hopes for the upcoming season, together with who he desires to see as Nathan’s mother. Now, Jack Wagner has addressed his emotions about Melissa Gilbert coming again, and one factor he talked about has me fairly excited.
Gilbert joined WCTH in Season 12 as Inspector Georgie McGill, who was revealed to have had a romantic previous with Wagner’s Choose Invoice Avery. Sadly, the Little Home on the Prairie star was out and in after two episodes, although not earlier than Georgie and Invoice shared a kiss! Extra on that in a bit.
Wagner, who reprised his beloved Daring and the Lovely function of Nick Marone after a 13-year absense, spoke to Entertainment Weekly about how that romance-driven function differs from what he is used to on the Hallmark sequence.
The distinction in with the ability to do The Daring and the Lovely, coming again as Nick, are the layers. This man is totally about romance. And there’s been actually nothing romantic for fairly some time on When Calls the Coronary heart, besides Melissa Gilbert got here on final yr and is returning, which is superior.
Despite the fact that Invoice Avery has seen some romance all through When Calls the Coronary heart’s run, this one with Georgie undoubtedly feels totally different. Not solely is it clear that there’s something between him and Georgie, and that’s apart from the kiss, however their previous makes issues much more fascinating.
I’m excited as ever to see what else stems out of their shared previous, particularly in relation to that kiss. Maybe unsurprisingly, it’s one thing that Wagner can be trying ahead to:
They’ve a backstory and a historical past, and I kissed her within the remaining episode final yr. In order that sprung an entire nicely of romance for my character.
Since Gilbert solely appeared in two episodes for Season 12, the present didn’t precisely discover their relationship an excessive amount of, and figuring out that there’s a lot to their backstory implies that extra will definitely be explored in Season 13. Wagner could not have revealed an excessive amount of about what could possibly be occurring between Invoice and Georgie, however it feels like their kiss was solely just the start, and I desperately want Season 13 to be right here already.
It is unknown what number of episodes Melissa Gilbert might be showing in for Season 13, however since being on the present was like “going residence” for her, it isn’t stunning she’d be returning. Plus, her upcoming look appears to be sufficient to flesh out this storyline. After all, not each romance in Hope Valley may be simple, so it’s attainable there could possibly be some obstacles coming their method. It’s been a very long time coming for Invoice to search out somebody, and it could be good for one thing to come back out of this potential relationship with Georgie.
Followers will simply have to attend and see. A premiere date for Season 13 has not been introduced. Nonetheless, the well-oiled machine that’s When Calls the Coronary heart is beginning filming quickly, so it is attainable {that a} date will come within the close to future. The wait might be value it, and for now, viewers will simply should theorize what might occur. There are infinite prospects and just one storyline, however it’s thrilling that extra will occur between Invoice and Georgie.
