Ahead of Season 13’s Jan. 4 premiere, Hallmark Channel has renewed When Calls the Heart for a 14th season. Production will begin next year for a 2027 return.
Additionally, original cast member Lori Loughlin (Curb Your Enthusiasm, On Call) is set to reprise her role of Abigail Stanton and will appear in six of the 12 episodes, the network revealed.
“Since the series’ debut in 2014, the character of Abigail Stanton was a fan favorite and beloved by the Hearties,” said Michelle Vicary, Head of Programming, Hallmark Media. “At its core the Hallmark brand is about hope, positivity and connection, which is also the central theme of When Calls the Heart. We felt that Season 14 was the right time to continue Abigail’s story with her return to this beloved series.”
Based on Janette Oke’s novel When Calls the Heart, the period-set series stars Erin Krakow, Kevin McGarry, Jack Wagner, Chris McNally, Pascale Hutton and Kavan Smith. It follows a cultured, early-1900s schoolteacher named Elizabeth (Krakow) who leaves her comfortable world in the city for a new life in a frontier town.
When Calls the Heart is an All Canadian Entertainment Production in Association with Brad Krevoy Television and Believe Pictures. Brad Krevoy, Brian Bird, Michael Landon Jr., Joy Gregory, Mike Rohl, Jimmy Townsend, Amy Hartwick, Erin Krakow, Susie Belzberg, and Michael Shepard are executive producers. Vicki Sotheran and Greg Malcolm serve as producers.
