Claire, played by Caitriona Balfe, holding Jamie, played by Sam Heughan, in 'Outlander' Season 1, Episode 11.

The Big Picture Regardless of which era of human history one might be born into, it would seem there always exists a fascination with what came before. In STARZ's historical drama, Outlander, we experience an epic tale of love, passion, and family through the eyes of World War II nurse, Claire Fraser and her 18th-century lover, the Scottish warrior, Jamie Fraser .

Much of the allure of Outlander comes from the incredible landscape views of the Scottish Highlands, the level of detail given to the culture of the time period, and of course, its immersive storylines, all of which Heughan has developed a deep emotional connection to. “We were on a castle set, so we’re in this magnificent castle in the studio, and they had a bagpipe player… they were playing ‘The Skye Boat Song,’ the theme tune, and I just… I was gone, I started crying,” Heughan revealed.

Before the final season arrives, the second batch of episodes for the seventh season still has to arrive with a release window of November 2024. Looking ahead to the final season, Heughan teased, “We have a cool story, new characters, new sets, a new director called Caitríona Balfe… Yeah, she’s doing really well.” And although it’s “gonna be hard to say goodbye to Jamie,” the actor admits there is still a lot to look forward to.
