The 10-episode prequel series, OUTLANDER: BLOOD OF MY BLOOD (from Matthew B. Roberts, Ronald D. Moore and Maril Davis, who also serve as executive producers of the original series), will explore the lives and relationship of Claire's parents, Julia Moriston (Hermione Corfield) and Henry Beauchamp (Jeremy Irvine), and Jamie's parents, Ellen MacKenzie (Harriet Slater) and Brian Fraser (Jamie Roy). The series brings viewers from the war-torn battlefields of WWI to the sweeping Highlands of 18th century Scotland, promising two new love stories filled with loyalty, passion and desire, as the young couples defy the forces that seek to tear them apart.
This stand-alone prequel series features new cast, characters and stories welcoming viewers unfamiliar with the OUTLANDER universe, while also providing origin stories of fan-favorite characters from early seasons of OUTLANDER, and offering new perspectives that will change what viewers of the original series think they know. In addition to Corfield, Irvine, Slater and Roy, who play the parents of OUTLANDER's central couple, Claire and Jamie, OUTLANDER: BLOOD OF MY BLOOD stars Tony Curran as Simon Fraser, Lord Lovat, Séamus McLean Ross as Colum MacKenzie, Sam Retford as Dougal MacKenzie, Rory Alexander as Murtagh Fitzgibbons Fraser, and Conor MacNeill as Ned Gowan.
OUTLANDER: BLOOD OF MY BLOOD premieres on Friday, August 8, 2025 on Starz at 8pm ET/PT in the United States and 9pm ET/PT in Canada. New episodes of the timeless romantic drama will be available to stream weekly on Fridays only on the STARZ app, all STARZ streaming and on-demand platforms.
"OUTLANDER: BLOOD OF MY BLOOD is, at its heart, a love story. It will explore what lengths a person will go to find love in a time when love is considered a luxury, and when marriages are made strategically, often for political or financial gain," says Matthew B. Roberts, showrunner and executive producer. He continues, "the title is a nod to Jamie Fraser's marriage vow to Claire and there will be several names and faces that OUTLANDER fans will know and recognize. Jamie and Claire's TV story may be coming to an end with season eight, but Diana is continuing on with their literary journey in her wonderful book series and is working diligently on book ten. With Jamie and Claire, and now Brian and Ellen, there is still so much more to come in the OUTLANDER universe, and we cannot wait to continue sharing these stories with our dedicated fans."
