Hallmark+ orders new drama series, Ripple

According to Deadline, the series is set in New York City, where Nate, Kris, Walter and Aria have crossed paths hundreds of times. However, they have never actually met. Due to the seemingly minuscule decisions these four people make, the pilot episode will reveal the ripple effect of how these strangers – all dealing with life’s challenges in their own way – and led to one another.

According to Hallmark+, “The message of this show is: just wait for the rainbow. Some of the best things in life can’t happen without the storm. Ripple amplifies a message of hope and reassurance that no matter what challenges come your way, we are never alone.”

Behind the scenes of the new series

Hailing from Lionsgate TV, the series showrunner is Joni Lefkowitz. Meanwhile, production will start in Toronto in September, when Amanda Tapping of Stargate fame will direct the first two episodes. Moreover, casting for the series is currently underway.

Lisa Hamilton Daly, Executive Vice President, Programming for Hallmark Media said in a statement:

Michele and Joni have crafted a beautiful story that celebrates how interconnected we all are and reminds us that the most extraordinary things can blossom from ordinary moments and hardships.

The way this show weaves moments of sadness, joy, and everything in between is a journey that’s synonymous with our goals for Hallmark+ content – to bring a deep, enriching viewing journey that keeps our viewers invested episode to episode.
