Benjamin Hollingsworth Teases Brady’s Fate After Near-Death Accident in ‘Virgin River’ Season 7
Virgin River‘s Benjamin Hollingsworth is weighing in after the show threw another curveball Brady’s way with a near-death accident in season 7.
In the new episodes released on Thursday, March 12, Brady finally reconciled with Brie (Zibby Allen) — but the honeymoon phase didn’t last long. Brady was cruising along on his motorcycle when he fell after failing to notice a construction truck on the road.
“That’s pretty much on par for Brady’s luck,” Hollingsworth, 41, quipped during an exclusive interview with Us Weekly. “I guess I just can’t have nice things. I guess Brady just can’t have nice things.”
Hollingsworth hinted that “it won’t be all smooth sailing” when Netflix’s longest-running scripted series returns for season 8, adding, “But it’s just nice to see [Brady and Brie] together.”
While fans are holding out hope that Brady will survive the incident, Hollingsworth teased that viewers can’t “assume anything” about his character’s fate.
“I definitely can’t spoil that. I think that’s going to be something that the audience is just going to have to wait another year to find out,” Hollingsworth told Us before confirming he knows where Brady will end up.
He continued: “I would love for Brady to be back. That would be nice. I’d love for him not to die — especially because he finally just got what he wanted.”
Based on Robyn Carr‘s book series, Virgin River, which premiered in 2019, follows the lives of residents living in a small town in Northern California. Brady quickly won over viewers, but he hasn’t had the best luck in his professional or personal life throughout the show.
Hollingsworth, for his part, has had fun seeing where the show takes Brady season to season. The actor told Us that he is having a blast starring in romantic projects, but he is interested in any and all opportunities.
“[Romance projects are] something that comes to me often. We get a lot of offers for that stuff, but it’s really tricky because you want to balance that,” he explained. “I’m a trained actor. I went to a conservatory and spent three years studying acting when I was 19 through 21. So I’ve got a really diverse background of theater training and I love stretching my range. I’ve had the opportunity to do it a little bit — and I want to continue to do that.”
He continued: “Maybe I can do [something like] Bridgerton. I love the idea of doing a period piece. I love action stuff and you see Brady do a little bit of it in Virgin River. I love doing my own stunts and working with stunt doubles. So it’d be fun to do kind of like a buddy cop action movie, too. We’ll see.”
Virgin River is currently streaming on Netflix.
The rise of online learning has been a game-changer in the field of education. With the advent of technology, students now have access to a plethora of online courses and resources that can help them enhance their knowledge and skills from the comfort of their own homes.
One of the biggest benefits of online learning is the flexibility it offers. Students no longer have to adhere to rigid schedules or commute to physical classrooms. They can access course materials and lectures at any time, allowing them to study at their own pace and on their own terms. This flexibility has been especially beneficial for working professionals or individuals with busy schedules, as it allows them to continue their education without disrupting their daily routines.
Another advantage of online learning is the accessibility it provides. With just a computer and an internet connection, students can access a wealth of educational resources from around the world. This means that individuals in remote or underserved areas can now access high-quality education that may not have been available to them otherwise. Online learning also allows students to learn from experts in their field, regardless of their geographic location.
Additionally, online learning has proven to be a cost-effective alternative to traditional education. With no need for physical classrooms or printed materials, online courses are often more affordable than their in-person counterparts. This makes education more accessible to a wider range of individuals, including those who may not have the financial means to attend traditional universities.
Despite its many benefits, online learning does come with its challenges. One of the main concerns is the lack of face-to-face interaction with instructors and peers. This can make it difficult for some students to stay motivated and engaged in their studies. However, many online courses now incorporate interactive elements such as discussion forums, virtual classrooms, and live video sessions to help bridge this gap.
In conclusion, online learning has revolutionized the way we approach education. Its flexibility, accessibility, and cost-effectiveness have made it an attractive option for individuals looking to further their education or acquire new skills. While there are challenges to overcome, the benefits of online learning far outweigh the drawbacks. As technology continues to advance, online learning will likely play an even larger role in the future of education.
