There’s exciting movement in Virgin River once again. Tim Matheson recently confirmed that filming for Season 8 is officially in progress—and fans are already celebrating the update.
Sharing photos from Season 7 on social media, Matheson reflected on how much the cast enjoys working together behind the scenes. According to the actor, that sense of connection plays a big role in making the fictional town feel so believable to audiences around the world.
Still, the new season will bring some changes. Original characters Mike and Charmaine won’t appear for now after their storylines concluded in Season 7.
Meanwhile, viewers are still waiting for answers after the finale’s dramatic twists, including Brady’s condition and Mel and Jack’s future with their newborn son.
With filming underway, Virgin River continues proving it remains one of Netflix’s most reliable comfort dramas—even as the story keeps evolving.
