Romantic series that has been a staple of Netflix's lineup since 2019, Virgin River continues to capture viewers’ hearts with a highly anticipated seventh season arriving in France on March 12, 2026. Created by Sue Tenney and based on Robyn Carr’s novels, the series stars Alexandra Breckenridge and Martin Henderson as it weaves through seasons filled with hope, heartbreak, and renewal in a tight-knit community nestled in Northern California.
After enduring numerous challenges in previous seasons, Melinda “Mel” Monroe and Jack Sheridan step into a new chapter of their relationship. Season 7 kicks off with the couple's spring wedding, a milestone that sets the stage for fresh emotional upheavals. While the marriage appears to affirm their commitment, it also uncovers underlying tensions, jealousy, and difficult decisions ahead.
Beyond the main couple, the series broadens its perspective on Virgin River and its history. The secrets surrounding Mel’s father open the door to a new dimension of the town’s story, taking us back to the 1970s. These flashbacks add depth to the series’ mythology and deepen the connection between personal dramas and collective memory.
The official trailer for season 7 will be released on Netflix as soon as it drops.
The direction of this season is a collaborative effort, with Martin Wood, Rama Rau, Felipe Rodriguez, Martin Henderson, and Monika Mitchell each contributing their expertise. The writing team brings together several seasoned writers dedicated to the series, guided by executive producers Patrick Sean Smith and Sue Tenney. This creative continuity ensures a consistent tone and narrative thread that have been developed since the show's debut, maintaining a strong connection to its emotional and storytelling roots.
The main cast remains unchanged, featuring Alexandra Breckenridge, Martin Henderson, Tim Matheson, Annette O’Toole, Colin Lawrence, and Zibby Allen. Alongside Mel and Jack, the supporting characters continue their own stories—navigating troubled romances, family conflicts, and personal dilemmas.
