When Will ‘Sullivan’s Crossing’ Come Back? What We Know So Far About Season 4

Fans can’t get enough of Sullivan’s Crossing. 

The hit series follows Boston neurosurgeon Maggie Sullivan (Morgan Kohan) as she returns to her hometown in Nova Scotia and reconnects with her estranged father Harry “Sully” Sullivan (Scott Patterson). As Maggie faces the legal troubles that upended her picture-perfect life, she unexpectedly falls for mysterious newcomer Cal Jones (Chad Michael Murray) — forcing her to reconsider everything she thought she wanted.

“This is a journey for Maggie to figure out,” showrunner Roma Roth told SpoilerTV in July 2025. “It’s not one or the other. It’s like, how can you marry both sides of yourself? How do you satisfy both sides of yourself and not have to give one up for the other?”

Maggie’s journey has centered on balancing her career and love life for three seasons, with the most recent premiering on Canada’s CTV in April 2025 and on The CW in May 2025. Netflix picked up the first two seasons of Sullivan’s Crossing two months later, introducing a broader audience to the show based on the bestselling novel series by Robyn Carr.

The author — who also wrote the books behind Netflix’s other popular small-town drama, Virgin River — confirmed on Facebook in June 2025 that Sullivan’s Crossing had been renewed for a fourth season.

Here’s everything to know about season 4 of Sullivan’s Crossing.

Will there be a season 4 of Sullivan’s Crossing? 

Yes, Sullivan’s Crossing is officially returning for a fourth season. In June 2025, CTV confirmed the series had been renewed, and Carr shared the news on Facebook shortly after. Though the main cast has yet to comment on the show’s future, Kohan did share her sentiments on the series in a May 2025 Instagram post.

“Two seasons dropping on Netflix, third season Canadian premiere last week, US next week and now a billboard at Yonge and Dundas Square…,” she wrote in a caption alongside photos of her standing in front of a Sullivan’s Crossing billboard.

She continued, “life is surreal and I just feel so so so lucky. What an absolute dream. Thank you to everyone who has been watching our show and sending your love. I feel it big time ❤️❤️❤️.” 

What will Sullivan’s Crossing season 4 be about?

Though plot details for season 4 have yet to be revealed, Roth has already hinted that the series won’t slow down. In a July 2025 interview with Collider, the showrunner teased a “big shoe drop” in the season 3 finale that sets the stage for dramatic developments next season. 

“There’s never a dull moment at Sullivan’s Crossing,” she said. “A romance drama series needs to have push and pull between your characters… we’re going to have a pretty big shoe drop at the end of the season that we’ll get to see play out in Season 4.”

Which cast members are returning? 

The cast for season 4 of Sullivan’s Crossing hasn’t been confirmed but — barring that alleged “shoe drop” — fans can expect to see their favorite characters in the next installment. In addition to Kohan, Murray and Patterson, series regulars include Tom Jackson as Frank Cranebear, Andrea Menard as Edna Cranebear and Allan Hawco as Andrew Mathews. 

Patterson, best known for his iconic role as Luke Danes in Gilmore Girls, told Brit + Co in October 2023 that he considers his role in Sullivan’s Crossing one of the most important of his career. 

“Roma Roth has created this platform where I’m able to express things in front of a camera that I have not been given the opportunity to do prior to this,” he said.

He continued, “The way I see it, it’s a career defining moment where I get to see what I can do in front of a camera in terms of how vulnerable I can portray a character.”

What has Chad Michael Murray said about Sullivan’s Crossing?

In an October 2023 interview with Parade, Murray defined the hit series as “a romance drama” — but noted that it was so much more.

“I will say that Sullivan’s Crossing is a place you go to heal,” the One Tree Hill alum said. “Sullivan’s Crossing is a place where you go to grow and to be honest with yourself.” 

He continued, “What’s so beautiful about this show and why people, I believe, will just want more and more of it is because it’s slowing things down. We all work so hard that we don’t ever live. I think in this show there’s a lot more living than there is work.” 

When will Sullivan’s Crossing season 4 be released?

A premiere date for season 4 of Sullivan’s Crossing has yet to be announced. Season 3 has already finished airing in Canada, and is currently wrapping up on The CW.

Where can I watch Sullivan’s Crossing?

Seasons 1 and 2 of Sullivan’s Crossing are available to stream on Netflix.

The third season is available to stream on The CW, with the final episode premiering on July 16. It will also be available to watch in its entirety on Netflix in August.
