In 2019, the Hallmark Channel spinoff “When Hope Calls” premiered on Hallmark Movies Now, only to face uncertainty for a second season. Great American Family later picked up Season 2, which officially began in 2021 with a Christmas special and continued in 2022 with a predominantly new cast. Now, Season 3 has been confirmed exclusively by Parade.
Renamed “When Hope Calls: Brookfield,” Season 3 is set to premiere on Sunday, Apr. 5, with early access for Great American Pure Flix subscribers on Thursday, Apr. 2. Bill Abbott, President & CEO of Great American Media, expressed excitement for the upcoming season, highlighting the show’s values and stellar cast.
Originally centered around the lives of reunited sisters Lillian and Grace, Season 2 saw a shift with new characters and developments. The show is a spinoff of the popular “When Calls the Heart,” based on Janette Oke’s book series about a teacher in a Canadian town.
While production information for Season 3 is still unknown, Season 2 premiered with a holiday special in 2021, followed by streaming and broadcast premieres in 2022. Fans can stream Season 1 on Hallmark+ and Season 2 on Great American Pure Flix.
Notable cast members include Cindy Busby, Christopher Russell, Nick Bateman, and Sarah Fisher. Several new cast members, including Jillian Murray, will join Season 3, while others like Morgan Kohan and Ryan-James Hatanaka will not be returning.
Filming for Season 3 has already wrapped, taking place near Powassan, Ontario, where the town of Brookfield was built specifically for the show. The new season will see the return of beloved characters and new storylines, promising an engaging and emotional continuation of the series.
Fans can also immerse themselves in the “When Hope Calls” book series by Janette Oke and Laurel Oke Logan, exploring the backstory of the sisters and their adventures in Brookfield. “Unyielding Hope,” “Sustaining Faith,” and “Unfailing Love” offer deeper insights into the world of the show, adding a new dimension for fans to enjoy.
