‘Virgin River’ Cast Shared a Special New Year's Message (Complete with a Taylor Swift Lip Sync)

The Virgin River cast released a special New Year's message earlier this month, and we get the feeling Taylor Swift would approve.

The show's official Instagram account shared a fun clip of cast members Colin Lawrence (John “Preacher” Middleton), Ben Hollingsworth (Dan Brady), Marco Grazzini (Mike Valenzuela) and Zibby Allen (Brie Sheridan) as they wished fans a happy new year. The caption reads, "Have a healthy and safe New Year! 2022 here we come! #virginriver #netflix #newyear #virginriverseriesnetflix #virginriverseries #2022."

In the clip, Lawrence, who filmed near his dazzling Christmas tree, kicked things off by saying, "I really hope you enjoyed your holidays, and the entire Virgin River family would like to wish you and all of your loved ones a happy, healthy and safe new year."

Allen then appeared with a glass of wine in hand and continued, "May your troubles be less and your blessings be more, and nothing but happiness come to your door. Happy New Year."

Hollingsworth, who could be seen carrying his baby in full winter gear in the snow, chimed in, "Just wanted to stop and say Happy New Year. May 2022 bring you happiness, love, prosperity, kindness, acceptance and, most of all, season four of Virgin River." *Raises glass.*

To conclude the festive video, Grazzini added his well wishes and cleverly transitioned into lip syncing the words to Taylor Swift's song "22," along with the rest of the cast. He began, "Hey everyone. Hope your Christmas was merry and wishing you all the cheer for the new year because..." And right on cue, the other three joined in to lip sync, "I don't know about you but I'm feeling 22" as the song played.

Thanks to season four, we've already got plenty to look forward to this year.
