There are so many life lessons to be learned from Hallmark movies. For example, small towns are better than big cities, working with someone you hate will lead to love with that person, and you should call your mom. OK, maybe that last one isn’t from Hallmark, but it’s good advice for anyone who has a maternal figure in their life, and surely the network supports the sentiment. May for Moms is the theme of the May premieres coming to the 2025 TV schedule, continuing Hallmark’s mission to provide original movies year-round — not just during the holidays.
In addition to celebrating Mother’s Day, Hallmark also has a fun way to mark the Kentucky Derby, and Jodie Sweetin returns for more Jane Mysteries, so it looks like it’s going to be a fun month. This list of upcoming Hallmark movies is updated year-round to inform you of the best romantic comedies and the fun mysteries that Hallmark and Hallmark Mystery have to offer. Be sure to bookmark it to keep up with your favorite actors like Lacey Chabert and Tyler Hynes. Without further ado, let’s check out the movies that will carry us through the month of May:
Hats Off To Love (Hallmark) - Saturday, May 3, 8 p.m. ET
Starring: Ginna Claire Mason, John Clarence Stewart and Holly Robinson Peete
May’s not just for Mother’s Day, it’s also for horse racing. Anybody who’s ever donned their best hat and mixed up a mint julep to watch the Kentucky Derby should love Hats Off to Love. Broadway veteran Ginna Claire Mason — who’s become a regular on the Countdown to Christmas slate after three straight years — stars as Stella, a hat designer working for socialite Rosalind (Hallmark veteran Holly Robinson Peete). When Stella meets Rosalind’s horse-training son Christian, this romance is off to the races.
The Jane Mysteries: Murder At Moseby (Hallmark Mystery) - Thursday, May 8, 8 p.m. ET
Starring: Jodie Sweetin and Stephen Huszar
After premiering on Hallmark+ in 2024, The Jane Mysteries: Murder at Moseby is set to make its network debut on Hallmark Mystery. Full House alum Jodie Sweetin has done four movies in this series with co-star and fellow Hallmark fan fave Stephen Huszar. In this offering, Jane goes undercover at her alma mater to help an old boyfriend solve a crime that he witnessed years earlier. Add in an Edgar Allan Poe Festival, and this sounds like a can’t-miss event.
Love In The Clouds (Hallmark) - Saturday, May 10, 8 p.m. ET
Starring: Paul Greene, Gail O'Grady, McKenzie Westmore and Lorenzo Lamas
What’s more romantic than a hot air balloon ride? Well, lots of things if you ask Jared, the cynical balloon pilot who reporter Brooklyn is interviewing for an assignment. Something tells me she’ll be able to change his mind. When Calls the Heart’s Paul Greene stars as Jared and Passions veteran McKenzie Westmore plays Brooklyn, with Gail O’Grady and Lorenzo Lamas also appearing.
Love On The Danube: Love Song (Hallmark) - Saturday, May 17, 8 p.m. ET
Starring: Nazneen Contractor and Wes Brown
In 2024, Hallmark+ premiered the three-part series Love on the Danube. Each movie is self-contained and takes place in Europe; naturally, on the Danube. Those TV rom-coms are now coming to Hallmark for the first time, premiering on the final three weekends of May for Moms. The first is Love Song, starring Wes Brown (who appeared with Lacey Chabert in the Haul Out the Holly movies and served up drinks in a Hallmark surprise cameo on Holiday Touchdown: A Chiefs Love Story). He plays Jack, who teams up with Sarah (Nazneen Contractor) to play matchmaker for their widowed parents while cruising down the Danube.
Love On The Danube: Royal Getaway (Hallmark) - Saturday, May 24, 8 p.m. ET
Starring: Jessica Sipos and Dan Jeannotte
On our second cruise down the Danube (this is giving me The White Lotus vibes, but tamer and without the murders), we’ll join Jessica Sipos’ Ava for a Royal Getaway. After being stood up at the altar, she decides to go on a honeymoon cruise anyway, where the art gallery manager meets an actual Prince Charming. Actually his name is Joe Fisher (which is strangely not royal-sounding at all), and he shares Ava’s passion for art.
Love On The Danube: Kissing Stars (Hallmark) - Saturday, May 31, 8 p.m. ET
Starring: Sarah Power, Brendan Penny, Kathryn Drysdale and Catherine Disher
For our final May for Moms cruise, Kissing Stars, viewers will join publicist Savannah Bailey (Sarah Power) on a rom-com cruise event called Kiss-con as she tries to help her client, Tripp Marks (Brendan Penny), connect with his fans as he promotes his latest film. Hallmark fans might remember Power as Abigail from the Hallmark series Good Witch, while Penny is well-known to the network’s loyal fans.
Big things appear to be happening over at Hallmark, as the network enters its reality TV era; however, it’s not all good news for fans, as the cable network announced that it’s ending its partnership with Peacock.
Despite the behind-the-scenes goings-on, there’s plenty to look forward to on our screens this month as we tip-toe closer to the second-most-wonderful time of the year — Christmas in July!
