Although it’s only been a little over a month since theSweet Magnolias' star,JoAnna Garcia Swisher, confirmedfilming had ended for the series’ fourth season, she now has more delightful news about the upcoming installment, which seems to be her favorite to date. Based on the novels of the same name bySherryl Woods,Sweet Magnoliasfollows three lifelong best friends as they manage relationships, family, and careers in their picturesque town, Serenity.The series debuted on Netflix in 2020, comprising ten episodes, similar to Seasons 2 and 3 that premiered in 2022 and 2023 respectively.
Speaking withPeople Magazine, Swisher, who stars as Maddie Townsend inSweet Magnolias, first teaseda lot of “jaw-dropping moments” in Season 4. She then said of the show’s characters, “I also think that we know our characters so well. We’re so involved and in love with these stories, and I think that the fans also have that same sense of connection and being on this journey with us.”
Swisher went on to hint thatSweet Magnoliaswould surely stick to the storyline established in the novels — however, there will be “really tough, heartbreaking moments” among the “swooping romance and beautiful moments.” In her words:
“It’s got all of theSweet Magnoliasthings, but it’s just in a package of pedal to the metal. There’s not just one or two things that happen this season. And literally, the first half of the season.”

Avid viewers of the rom-drama series can only imaginewhat will go down inSweet MagnoliasSeason 4, as they are in for a lot of surprises. Not to mention, even Swisher admittedly had to catch her breath while reading the new season’s scripts, as at the end of every episode, she was like, “What?” She also felt the same way during filming, which stunned her even more:
“I feel like I was ready for that, in general, just having read the scripts. And then, when it all kind of came to pass, and we actually made the show, I was like, ‘This is going to be insane.'”
It is worth noting thatSwisher once describedSweet MagnoliasSeason 4as her favorite run back in May while announcing the installment’s filming conclusion. She revealed her reason at the time, saying it was “not just for the OMG moments (there are many of them!), but because it was a joy to make.” The brilliant actress also labeled the season a “magical” one for reasons she looked forward to sharing.
