Could Nelly Knows Mysteries be Hallmark Mystery’s next long-lasting film series? If it’s up to stars Pascale Hutton and Kavan Smith, then the answer is yes! TV Insider spoke with Hutton and Smith about more Nelly Knows Mysteries movies in the future.
“We hope so. I definitely think fans and viewers will be wanting more because our relationship in the movie and in that world is just starting,” Hutton said. “Hopefully, we leave fans and viewers going, oh, I want to see more of these two together because they are a bit like oil and water.”

Hutton echoed Smith and pitched “many” more Nelly Knows Mysteries movies so she and Smith could explore a potential romance between Nelly and Detective Michael.
“One of the things that we both remarked when we were reading it is there’s very little flirtation,” Smith recalled when reading the first script. “There’s just sort of a hint of it. At points, it was kind of a relief. It was like, okay, we don’t have to kiss each other for a while. It gives us a lot of room to grow.”
