Hallmark Media kicked off 2026 with a fresh slate of movies and TV shows — with more features being released all year long.

In December 2025, Hallmark unveiled its “Winter Escape” lineup, featuring five new rom-coms that began airing in January. Lacey Chabert and Ian Harding headlined the first movie of 2026, Lost in Paradise, filmed in Fiji.

“This movie is truly an adventure filled with comedy and even a little romance 😉 I hope you’ll tune in!” Chabert wrote via Instagram in support of the movie’s January 3 release.

The following day, fans headed back to Hope Valley for season 13 of When Calls the Heart.

“There’s no shortage of love and romance,” star Erin Krakow exclusively told Us Weekly ahead of the January 4 premiere, teasing that her character, Elizabeth Thornton, and boyfriend Mountie Nathan Grant (Kevin McGarry) will “get romantic together” once back in town.

February marked the network’s “Loveuary” lineup with four new rom-coms. The network’s “Spring Into Love” lineup brought six new romance films sprinkled throughout March and April.
