Six years after <\/span>Daniel Lissing<\/a> left <\/span>When Calls the Heart<\/span><\/em>, he is gearing up to reunite with his co-star and on-screen love interest,\u00a0<\/span>Erin Krakow<\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n During Hallmark’s TCA presentation on Tuesday, it was announced that the 42-year-old Australian actor is teaming up with Krakow, 39, for a brand-new Hallmark Channel Christmas movie, <\/span>Santa Tell Me<\/span><\/em>, which will premiere\u00a0this holiday season.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Krakow and Lissing portrayed Elizabeth\u00a0Thatcher and Jack Thornton, respectively, on the series, which began airing in 2014, and is heading into its 11th season this year. Lissing left the show in season 5 after his character, the husband of Krakow’s Elizabeth, was killed off in the season finale. Since his 2018 exit, fans have begged the network to bring the two back together for another project, as they both routinely appear in Hallmark movies.<\/span><\/p>\n That wish went unfulfilled until Tuesday, when Lissing shared the exciting news of the reunion to his social media page, teasing what’s to come.<\/span><\/p>\n “What a nice why to start the year\u2026 reuniting with\u00a0<\/span>@erinkrakow<\/a>\u00a0on this fun holiday movie \ud83c\udfa5\ud83c\udf7f\ud83c\udf84,” the actor wrote. “Who\u2019s excited??”<\/span><\/p>\n Krakow responded to his post by commenting with a Santa emoji and several exclamation marks, emphasizing her giddiness at their upcoming project.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Plot details for <\/span>Santa Tell Me<\/span><\/em> and a confirmed release date have yet to be released at this time.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n In 2020, ET spoke with Lissing about his <\/span>controversial choice to leave the long-running drama<\/a>\u00a0in order to pursue other projects and avenues.<\/span><\/p>\n “It’s funny the way the world works. If I had stayed on the show, and been there during season 6 and shot and all that kind of stuff, then I wouldn’t have met\u00a0<\/span>[my fiance\u00e9] Nadia<\/a>, you know? And I wouldn’t be\u00a0<\/span>getting married<\/a>\u00a0and I wouldn’t be at this place in my life where I feel really in line with what I’m meant to be doing personally and professionally, so no regrets at all,” Lissing explained. “How can I look at my future wife and say, ‘Oh, I should’ve stayed on this job?’ She’s my life, you know? That’s my personal life and that’s exponentially more important to me than a job.”<\/span><\/p>\n
