Hallmark has taught us some things about life, like how small towns are better than big cities, and if you’re forced to work with someone you hate, you will fall in love with that person. It’s also taught us that spring is a time for new beginnings, and romance could be just around the corner. That’s the theme of the April premieres coming to the 2025 TV schedule. Fans of the network know Hallmark continues to air original movies year-round — not just during the holidays — and following a slate of “March Royal” flicks, get ready to “Spring into Love,” with a quartet of Hearts Around the Table romances anchoring the new Hallmark movies this month.
Skyler Samuels is also back on Hallmark Mystery with a new Aurora Teagarden movie — her fourth since taking over the role from Candace Cameron Bure in 2023. This list of upcoming Hallmark movies is updated year-round to inform you of the best romantic comedies and the fun mysteries that Hallmark and Hallmark Mystery have to offer, so you can keep up with the latest projects of your favorite actors like Lacey Chabert and Tyler Hynes. Without further ado, let’s check out the movies that will carry us through the month of April:
Hearts Around the Table: Jenna's First Love (Hallmark) - Saturday, March 22, 8 p.m. ET
Starring: Ashley Newbrough, Steve Lund and Mindy Cohn
Our first offering in the Hearts Around the Table series sees old flames become new beginnings in Jenna’s First Love, when the titular character (Newbrough) is tasked with planning a charity event for a billionaire. This proves to be more than she bargained for, though, when she finds that she’ll be working with her ex-boyfriend Andrew (Lund). If you missed Jenna’s March 22 premiere, the film will replay on Hallmark at 10 p.m. ET Saturday, April 5.
Hearts Around the Table: Shari's Second Act (Hallmark) - Saturday, March 29, 8 p.m. ET
Starring: Mishael Morgan, Brendan Morgan and Mindy Cohn
If some of these actors and characters look familiar, yes, the Hearts Around the Table series revolves around four foster siblings who come together each week for Sunday dinner with their foster mom (Cohn). After Jenna’s ex-boyfriend re-entered the picture, Shari’s Second Act will see Mishael Morgan’s character looking for inspiration after a breakup. It seems something like fate when the painter meets Evan (Morgan), a repairman who turns out to own an art gallery.
Hearts Around the Table: Josh's Third Serving (Hallmark) - Saturday, April 5, 8 p.m. ET
Starring: Jake Epstein, Stephanie Bennett and Mindy Cohn
Next up, it’s Josh’s turn in Josh’s Third Serving, where the titular teacher finds himself in a rough spot when the funding for after-school programs gets cut. Jake Epstein’s character teams up with fellow educator Ella (Bennett) in search of donations, and they end up finding much more than that.
Aurora Teagarden: A Lesson in Murder (Hallmark Mystery) - Thursday, April 10, 8 p.m. ET
Starring: Skyler Samuels, Evan Roderick and Marilu Henner
Stepping away from our foster siblings for a moment, Skyler Samuels returns to the popular Aurora Teagarden series in her fourth movie as the librarian/true crime enthusiast. In A Lesson in Murder, one of the students from Aurora’s true crime literature class is murdered, and of course she takes it upon herself to investigate what happened. This movie is already available to stream for Hallmark+ subscribers.
Hearts Around the Table: Kiki's Fourth Ingredient (Hallmark) - Saturday, April 12, 8 p.m. ET
Starring: Kathryn Davis, Torrance Coombs and Mindy Cohn
Wrapping up our Hearts Around the Table movies, we’ve got Kathryn Davis starring in Kiki’s Fourth Ingredient. The fourth sibling — a caterer — turns to Clay (Coombs) for help after committing to the overwhelming task of working a big wedding. I’ll give you one guess as to what that fourth ingredient is (it starts with an L).
Journey To You (Hallmark) - Saturday, April 19, 8 p.m. ET
Starring: Erin Cahill and Erik Valdez
The April Hallmark mini-series may be over, but we’re not finished springing into love! Journey to You — from the network’s faith-based DaySpring collection — stars fan-favorite Erin Cahill as Monica. After missing out on a big promotion at work, Monica decides to partake in the Camino de Santiago — a Christian pilgrimage in Spain. On her journey she rediscovers her inner peace … and maybe a little romance, too.
I love the idea of this Hearts Around the Table spring miniseries, which echoes The Wedding Veil and The Groomsmen trilogies by offering several movies centered around a different member of an established group. Not only is the concept of allowing us to get to know this fictional foster family over the course of four weeks really fun, but it may give us a peek into what’s to come this holiday season.
Hallmark is trying something new with its 2025 Countdown to Christmas, with a miniseries starring Mae Whitman called The Twelve Dates of Christmas. Is April too soon to start counting down to the holidays? At least there will be plenty of new Hallmark movies to tide us over until then.
