“We couldn’t be more excited to begin shooting season 9 of ‘When Calls the Heart,’ said star and executive producer Erin Krakow. “It’s a wonderful feeling being back on set with the amazing cast and crew. There are a lot more stories to tell this season and thanks to the talented writing staff, there will be more drama, adventure and romance and we can’t wait for our fans to see what Hope Valley has in store.” This past season finale which found Elizabeth (Erin Krakow) finally choosing from her two suitors, Nathan (Kevin McGarry) and Lucas (Chris McNally) was the most-watched episode of the series to date. No date has been announced for the season premiere but if the show follows past seasons then look for season 9 to premiere in early 2022. Peter DeLuise, who is an executive producer and director on the series, tweeted the first shot filmed for the new season as well as the first kiss. Erin Krakow posted this image from her first day back. Next, Is Lori Loughlin Returning to When Calls the Heart?
