Hallmark’s new series has a big connection to The Young and the Restless

by

One notable actor is set to appear in both Hallmark movies and The Young and the Restless soap opera, not just for their compelling storylines, but also for their shared on-screen talent.

Every week, I eagerly look forward to the latest Hallmark movie. These heartwarming films never fail to lift my spirits, even when they bring on a torrent of tears!

Since its debut in 1973, The Young and the Restless has consistently provided the same captivating storylines. Initially revolving around the affluent Brooks family and the working-class Fosters, many of the original characters have moved on, yet the essence of the show remains remarkably consistent.

After quite some wait, it’s finally happening – the iconic TV series and the popular streaming platform will be collaborating soon. Keep an eye out for more details within just a few days.

The Young and the Restless’ Mishael Morgan heads up new Hallmark series

Indeed! Actress Mishael Morgan, famously known for her role on “The Young and the Restless,” will be starring as Shari in Hallmark’s “Hearts Across the Table” series. Starting from March 22, episodes will be released weekly.

Likely, spectators will recognize Morgan primarily from her roles as Hilary Curtis and Amanda Sinclair on The Young and the Restless. This soap opera marked her as the first African-American actress to receive the Daytime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series, which she won in 2022.

The highlight is that there are four connected movies, and Shari plays the main character in the second one titled “Shari’s Second Act.

Morgan posted on Instagram that some moments leave a lasting impression, and filming this project was definitely one of those. It was intense, emotional, and brimming with sincerity. I’m thankful for each second spent on it and can’t wait to reveal it to everyone soon!

Here’s the full release schedule you can expect Morgan to appear in:

  • Hearts Around the Table: Jenna’s First Love – March 22, 2025
    • Jenna plans a charity event for Billionaire Tom Redlands. But working with Tom’s right hand Andrew is proving difficult, especially since Jenna and Andrew have a romantic history.
