Attention, Sassenachs everywhere! Your hearts are going to be back in the highlands this summer. Starz has just announced that the first Outlander spin-off, prequel series, Outlander: Blood of My Blood, will premiere on August 8, 2025. Outlander: Blood of My Blood will fill out new corners of Claire (Caitriona Balfe) and Jamie’s (Sam Heughan) epic love story by showing us just how their respective parents met and fell in love.

Outlander: Blood of My Blood will introduce Outlander fans to the young Brian Fraser (Jamie Roy), the bastard son of Simon Fraser, Lord Lovat (Tony Curran), and his fiery lassie, the favorite daughter of the powerful Clan MacKenzie, Ellen (Harriet Slater). Elsewhere, we’ll see how disillusioned World War I soldier Henry Beauchamp (Jeremy Irvine) made a spiritual connection with a brilliant young war office worker, Julia Moriston (Herimone Corfield), through heartfelt correspondence.

In addition to following these romances, Outlander: Blood of My Blood will also take viewers back to where Claire and Jamie’s story started: Castle Leoch. Over the course of Brian and Ellen’s story, we’ll get to meet younger versions of fan favorites like Murtagh (Rory Alexander) and Ned Gowan (Conor MacNeill). The show will also delve into just how Jamie’s uncles Colum (Séamus McLean Ross) and Dougal (Sam Retford) wound up as laird and war chieftain, respectively, after the death of their father.

Outlander: Blood of My Blood was created by Outlander EP Matthew B. Roberts and is based on characters created by Diana Gabaldon.

Outlander: Blood of My Blood will premiere on Starz at 8 PM ET/PT on Starz in the U.S. and at 9 PM ET/PT in Canada. New episodes will be available to stream on the Starz app on Fridays after that.
