‘The Love Club: Nicole’s Pen Pal’ Was Filmed in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada
“The Love Club: Nicole’s Pen Pal” is the first in a four-part series to air on the Hallmark Channel. The other three movies in the “The Love Club” line (“Sydney’s Journey,” “Lauren’s Dream,” and “Tara’s Tune”) are available on the on-demand Hallmark Movies Now website and app. The movies are also available on Prime Video, Stack.TV, and Apple TV. However, “Nicole’s Pen Pal” expires soon.
According to IMDb, every movie in the series was shot in Ontario, with “Nicole’s Pen Pal” being filmed in the city of Hamilton.
Camille Stopps (“Tara’s Tune”) posted this picture while sharing her excitement for the movie’s airing.
“What a rewarding and challenging process to shoot four movies back to back, and how special to get to stay with one character for an extended period of time!” she wrote.
The post includes a bunch of behind-the-scenes with crew and actors.
Bristow said in a chat with Harlton Empire: “I hope that everyone who watches this takes away that we have the power to accept love from those who want to give it to us, knowing that we are deserving of that love. Also, that we have the power to give it to ourselves and that’s a really beautiful thing.”
The movies first aired in Canada in February.
In this Instagram post, Bristow shares that it took 3 “very short months” to film back-to-back movies.
She wrote: “After three very short and simultaneously very long months, that’s a wrap on The Love Club!”
Cinematographer Andreas Evdemon shared on his account: “I had the immense honour of shooting this four part series of movies, with the incredibly talented @jill_carter_director. Her leadership and talent led to these incredible films. Please give them a watch. The cast and crew on these four movies cannot be thanked enough.”
