Any spoilers about the season 3 storyline?
This remains the largest question! In season 2, lovers got a few answers about each one of the main relationships in Virgin River, however as most of us know, more replies can often lead to more questions, especially in regards to Doc and Hope’s complicated connection as well as Preacher’s participation with Paige/Michelle’s cover-up. That season 3 will even address the two big cliffhangers in the season finale: What is going on with Doc’s health? Who shot Jack?
A number of the more recent storylines, such as Lizzie and Ricky’s budding relationship, are only getting started. Showrunner Sue Tenney is very interested in exploring Ricky and Lizzie more in the seasons ahead: “Ricky has an excellent arc at the books that I intend to explore.
Some enthusiasts may be turning to Robyn Carr’s novels for answers, but Tenney cautions they have steered away from the book show in recent events. “Finally, the way I look at the show is that we are likely to get as many seasons since we get,” she lasted. “And when we reach that last season, we want them to become where [writer Robyn Carr] has them”
Will the entire cast return for season 3?
Yes, even your favorite cast members will probably be coming back for the new season! Alexandra Breckinridge will reunite as Mel, Martin Henderson as Jack, and Naturally, Tim Matheson (Doc), Annette O’Toole (Hope), Colin Lawrence (Preacher), Benjamin Hollingsworth (Brady), Grayson Gurnsey, Lauren Hammersley, Sarah Dugdale, Jenny Cooper, Daniel Gillies, Chase Petriw, Marco Grazzini and more of your preferred Virgin River sailors.
We will also be introduced to two new characters: Brie (played with Zibby Allen), and Tara (played with Stacey Farber). Brie is Jack’s sister, a spunky lawyer, and Tara is Lilly’s daughter, that has been helping her mother take care of baby Chloe.
