Virgin River stars Alexandra Breckenridge and Martin Henderson have the best time on set! As fans continue to wait for season six, Alexandra, 42, gave fans a behind-the-scenes glimpse on Saturday. Returning to filming their fifth series, the actress shared a clip of Martin – aka Jack Sheridan.
“One time. In Virgin River. I was on a Ferris wheel with Martin Henderson. And he was swinging around and it freaked me out and I screamed at him,” she wrote alongside the clip. The co-stars, who started working together in 2019, have been good friends over the years.
In February, the duo headed to Vancouver, where they began filming the sixth series of Virgin River, which will premiere later this year. A release date has yet to be confirmed.
While details have been scarce in recent months, Alexandra has told fans that “a lot of information” will start to “leak out” soon. “I’m not going to spoil it for you, but I just want to let you know that some information will be coming out soon,” she said in early September.
Meanwhile, Alexandra has also opened up about filming the sixth season, which will consist of 10 episodes. “It’s been intense,” she revealed. “Not necessarily the content, I think just the process of filming it.” “We’ve been out on set a lot,” she teased. “What does that mean? We don’t know.
The new episodes of Virgin River will pick up a few months after the events of season five, in which Mel discovered the identity of her biological father: a man named Everett Reid, who had been living in Virgin River.
“The big new mystery this season is Mel’s biological father, Everett Reid, who is carrying a long-held secret,” showrunner Patrick Sean Smith told Tudum. Elsewhere, Mel and Jack will continue their journey as parents while turning Lilly’s farm into their dream home.
As of August, it appears the sixth installment has entered post-production, with Martin, 49, revealing that he’s already working on the final edits. Posting a photo from a studio, fans noticed a photo of Mel and Jack chatting with big smiles in the background.
For Martin, the sixth installment will mark a major milestone in his career. Writing a supportive post, in April, the official Virgin River Instagram account confirmed that Martin was making his directorial debut.
