The small town drama that gains popularity with every season, Virgin River has already began filming for its Season 5

‘Virgin River’ Season 5 Starts Filming: What Can You Expect From Netflix’s Small-Town Drama With a Big Heart?

Amid all the larger-than-life, fantastical, and CGI-heavy shows gracing our
screens at the moment, Netflix’s original series Virgin River brings back some
good old-fashioned drama set in a cozy community town. Its unwavering position
at number 2 on the Neilsen charts is proof enough that the audience is loving
the tale of the quintessential small-town. And to their delight, Virgin River
season 5 is well on its way.



Loosely adapted from Robyn Carr’s bestselling novel of the same name, the drama
series follows the life of Mel Monroe and her move to an isolated town.
Struggling with her past trauma and baggage, she finds a home in the small town,
as it slowly grows on her. With the last season raising the steaks for Mel as
well as the residents of Virgin River

see what the mighty season 5 has in store for us.

WITH FILMING UNDERWAY, WHAT AWAITS US IN VIRGIN RIVER SEASON 5?

Following the release of season 3 in 2021, the streaming giant green-lit the
crowd-favorite show with a two-season renewal. Even before season 4 went live on
Netflix [http://netflixjunkie.com/category/news], Actor Martin Henderson
confirmed the start of the filming process by uploading a picture on Instagram
with the caption “Jack’s back! Day 1 of shooting #virginriver Season 5.”

As packed as season 4 was with so much happening in the seemingly quaint town,
the finale left us with many unanswered questions. For instance, what’s next for
Jack and Mel, the newly engaged couple with a little one on the way? Is there a
wedding on the cards soon, possibly before the baby comes? Also, there was the
revelation that Jack wasn’t the father of his ex, Charmine’s twins. What will
his involvement in their lives look like? Perhaps, season 5 will explore more on
this.

On the other hand, Hope is still recovering from her terrible accident at the
end of season 3. From being a hated character

Hope has a beautiful arc and we wish things go better for her now that she isn’t
rejecting her treatment anymore. Additionally, Brie finally stood up to her
sexually abusive ex, Don, and refused to sign the NDA. She even threatens to
file charges against him. After many episodes of anticipation, the show uncovers
that Melissa Montgomery is Nick’s sister. What will her involvement in Jack and
Nick’s business lead to?
