As the weekly airing of Hallmark movies becomes a common occurrence, especially during the holiday season, it’s understandable that many television enthusiasts would crave more choices in heartwarming romance and films reminiscent of classic romantic comedies. Good news! The 2025 TV lineup is set to provide just that, with The CW and Harlequin stepping up to challenge Hallmark.
What Harlequin Romances Have Become Movies For The CW?
Even if you’re unfamiliar with the romance genre, it’s likely you’ve come across Harlequin novels. For 76 years, they’ve been publishing a wide range of stories, from those that are wholesome to those that have more passionate content. Now, known for shows like The Flash, the successful duo Sherlock & Daughter, and teen soap operas such as Gossip Girl and One Tree Hill (which plans to bring back its original cast in a revival series), The CW is set to air six of Harlequin’s most popular titles this year.
What can we expect next? A series of book-to-screen adaptations featuring some of the publisher’s most popular stories. These will be brought to life by a number of well-known talents, several of whom have previously starred in popular CW shows. Take a look at this lineup:
- Second Guessing Fate: Speaking of The Flash, Danielle Panabaker stars in Second Guessing Fate as Gemma, an event planner who gets a mysterious surprise reading from a fortune teller at one of her parties, who says she’s just one disastrous date away from finding the love of her life. After she has that date, however, and finds connection with a rich hottie, she has to figure out who the fortune teller’s signs are really pointing toward.
- Savvy Sheldon Feels Good As Hell: Glee star and The Masked Singer winner Amber Riley leads the cast of Savvy Sheldon Feels Good As Hell. Her Savvy is fed up with her pressure-filled career and decides to make some big changes in her life, which include renovating the truly outdated kitchen her beloved grandmother left her, finding her true calling and reworking her love life. She stumbles along the way, but her contractor just might help her straighten out more than her kitchen.
- Recipe For Romance: Competition for a place at a neighborhood festival is tight, and things get worse for Sari (True O’Brien, Days of Our Lives) when her parents’ coffee shop is left in her hands and a new bakery opens next door. Unfortunately, that new business is run by the “annoyingly handsome” charmer Gabe (Alex Mallari Jr., Ginny & Georgia), who’s also bent on success, leading to a massive prank war between himself and Sari…and maybe an eventual love connection.
- Paws In The City: When Issa (Emeraude Toubia, Shadowhunters) makes a massive fumble in her gig as a social media manager and basically ruins a star’s career, she’s out on her butt and has to take a gig pet-sitting for an incredibly spoiled dachshund. The dog’s good looking, but hermit-like owner, Theo (Carter Jenkins, Famous in Love), just like his diva of a pet, turns out to not be so bad, and Issa is able to use her new job to turn things around in several areas of her somewhat messy life.
- Ordinary Girl In A Tiara: When heiress Philippa Levreaux (Kathryn Gallagher, Gossip Girl) needs a place to stay, she gets an offer from the woman who was once her childhood enemy, Caro Cartwright (Katharine King So, Transplant). Being roomies ain’t easy for these two, but they eventually find that their differences help both of them work through their separate troubles and move forward with the lives they were meant to live.
- Montana Mavericks: We’ll see Walker: Independence and Arrow star Katherine McNamara in Montana Mavericks as Heather, a popular author suffering writer’s block who inherits a ranch in, you guessed it, Montana. She heads there with two of her friends in tow, and all three have quite an adventure in store when they find the property seriously run-down…and find themselves living next to Cliff (Dennis Andres, Workin’ Moms), a “charming cowboy veterinarian.”
