Hallmark Media is kicking 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 to begin airing in January. Lacey Chabert and Ian Harding headline 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 will be able to head back to Hope Valley for season 13 of When Calls the Heart.
