Here is a NEW Interview with Sam Heughan from Vanity Fair
It was teased in Outlander’s season five trailer—and now Vanity Fair has two exclusive full-length looks at Jamie Fraser wearing the red coat and tricorn hat of his longtime enemies: the British. What could have induced Fraser to wear such a hated garment? Well, the answer would be a bit of a spoiler. But series star Sam Heughan got on the phone with Vanity Fair in advance of Sunday night’s battle episode, “The Ballad of Roger Mac,” to discuss the fashion choice that sent a ripple of shock through even the die-hard Outlander book fans.

These photos are bound to be at least the second-most talked-about images of Heughan to hit the internet this week. (Or did you miss the post-workout selfie that launched hundreds of thousands of likes?) “You feel rather impotent in this time,” Heughan told Vanity Fair of his pandemic mood. “You want to be able to make a difference and sometimes you’re like: Is that all I can do? But I guess it’s important to people to be distracted and to find some levity and lightness.”
Yes, it was a shock to see Jamie in a Red Coat uniform. It was almost betrayal. I am sure there are many reactions from many of Outlander’s devoted fans.
