For those who are eagerly waiting for an update on Virgin River season 6, there is good news. According to a recent interview with showrunner Patrick Sean Smith, the team of writers is set to assemble by the year-end. Though he could not specify the timeline, he stated that they are “trying to get back into production as quickly as possible.”
The romantic drama hit Netflix on December 6, 2019, and has aired five seasons till now. The part 2 of season 5 aired as recently as this Thursday, November 30, 2023. Since then, there has been a constant buzz around Virgin River season 6.
As per the latest reports, the team is seriously setting the ball rolling for the upcoming edition.
When will Virgin River season 6 be possibly released?
If official reports are considered, there is no release date attached to Virgin River season 6. Moreover, the crew has yet to finish writing and production commences after that. The writers reportedly did start penning the script at the beginning of 2023 but then the 2023 Writers Guild of America strike began.
This put a halt to all the productions and the Netflix series was no different. But as per what showrunner Patrick Sean Smith told Decider recently, the writers will come together to resume work soon.
He told the publication:
“We’re scheduled to write through the end of the year…We’re trying to get back into production as quickly as possible, but I don’t have any firm dates on that yet.”
Given this, it can be guessed that Virgin River season 6 will not come before the fall of 2024, that is September-December period.
