Luckily, fans don’t have to say goodbye just yet. In addition to announcing the end of Outlander, Starz greenlit a 10-episode prequel series, Outlander: Blood of My Blood, which will center around Jamie’s (Heughan) parents.

The show follows the story of a fictional nurse named Claire Randall (Balfe) who — after ending her stint as a World War II British Army nurse — gets transported from the year 1945 back in time to 1743 Scotland. After being forced to marry Scottish warrior, Jamie Frasier (Heughan), Claire’s heart gets torn between two men with vastly different lives.
The cast of Outlander includes Sophie Skelton, Richard Rankin, Caitlyn O’Ryan, Simon R. Baker, Mark Lewis Jones and Glen Gould.
Season 6 premiered on Starz in March 2022 after being delayed for two years because of the pandemic. Season 7 will premiere this summer with 16 episodes and will feature returning characters along with new additions to the cast.
