What should Hearties expect from his character in the next season? Showrunner Lindsay Sturman has shared a few hints of what is to come.
WCTH Showrunner Shares What’s Next For Lucas Bouchard
The WCTH Season 11 finale episode “Anything For Love” ended in a shocking cliffhanger that will not be resolved until next season. However, Governor Lucas Bouchard has his own challenges that will spill into Season 12.
The whole Jeanette story has inspired some newspaper headlines asking for his resignation. However, Lucas is more determined than ever. What should Hearties expect in Season 12? Showrunner Lindsay Sturman spoke to TV Guide a bit about his character.
Lucas is always a character who is bound for greatness, and a man of big ideas and big ambitions that are also always for his community and not for himself. As he’s growing into this leader, Season 12 is a new chapter of him facing these challenges while trying to always do good for all the people that he represents and, of course, for Hope Valley. So it’s watching him step into bigger shoes and growing into being a leader.
Next, will he find love? Her response seemed to be optimistic. “Let’s just say, love may be in Lucas’ future.
There Will Be A ‘Push-Pull’ For Lucas And Lee
One concern for many WCTH fans was that Lucas asked Lee to go to Capital City with him. Sturman was not asked whether or not Chris McNally would still be on the series as much, she seemed to answer it. It appears that Lucas will be in Capital City, but he will be returning to Hope Valley often.
The show is always going to be set in Hope Valley, but with Lucas being the governor, there is this pull back to Capital City. Does he pull Lee with him with his grand vision, and both of them wanting to do great things for Hope Valley and their communities, while also their hearts being in Hope Valley as well? It does create a push-pull into Season 12.
Therefore, it sounds like there will be some sort of balancing act.
