Here is a NEW Interview with Richard Rankin from Vulture
From Vulture:
When a scene is scored with Samuel Barber’s “Adagio for Strings,” you know it’s going to be a moving moment. In this week’s episode of Outlander, “Providence,” Roger (Richard Rankin) had the chance to escape the Mohawk village where he’s being held captive, but he opted to turn around. He’d befriended a Frenchman — the fellow fool for love, Father Alexandre Ferigault (Yan Tual) — who, despite Roger’s counsel in their shared “idiot hut,” chose a slow, painful death on a simmering pyre rather than baptize the baby he’d fathered with the tribe’s healer, Johiehon (Sera-Lys McArthur). The Mohawk supported the couple’s union, but Ferigault believed that, as a fallen priest, his blessing would damn his daughter, so he refused to give it.

Here is a NEW Interview with Sophie Skelton from Vulture
From Vulture:
Since seeing Brianna approach the stones in the season-four trailer, Outlander fans have been waiting for the moment Bree would meet her long-lost biological father, Jamie Fraser. But as actress Sophie Skelton knows, the scene that played out in this week’s episode, “The Birds & The Bees,” may not be the “wonderful father-daughter reunion” many were expecting. That’s because it comes the day after Brianna was raped by Stephen Bonnet, which, in the Starz drama, happened the same night she was handfast and lost her virginity to Roger Wakefield. (In Diana Gabaldon’s Drums of Autumn, the sexual assault occurs on Bonnet’s boat two days after her union with Roger, and when she meets Jamie days later, readers aren’t yet aware of it — they learn of the rape when Claire does, after guessing that Brianna is pregnant and hearing that Roger, who used the unreliable withdrawal method of birth control, may not be the father.)

Here is a NEW Interview with Duncan Lacroix from Vulture
From Vulture:
Outlander fans have been hoping and waiting for Jamie Fraser to reunite with his godfather, Murtagh, but even the biggest Murtagh fans had to be surprised by his appearance in Sunday night’s episode, “Savages.”
Unlike in Diana Gabaldon’s novels, the grizzly Fraser survived the Battle of Culloden in the Starz drama, and was last seen in season three being escorted out of Ardsmuir Prison to board a ship to the American Colonies with other prisoners. As we learned in “Savages,” he spent 12 years as an indentured servant before becoming a blacksmith in Woolam’s Creek. And he’s doing well for himself: Murtagh’s work is so in demand, he can charge Young Ian 21 shillings to fix a broken horse bit. An outraged Jamie was ready for a fight when he marched into the smithy, but when the gray-haired Murtagh turned around, what he got instead was an embrace.

Here W Still and Interview with Caitriona Balfe from Vulture
From Vulture:
This week’s episode of Outlander, “Do No Harm,” is the show’s most harrowing hour since season one’s Wentworth Prison-set finale. After Claire, Jamie, and Young Ian arrive penniless at River Run, the North Carolina plantation owned by Jamie’s Aunt Jocasta (Maria Doyle Kennedy), Jocasta reveals that she’s a true, manipulative MacKenzie by publicly declaring Jamie the new master of River Run before discussing it with him. Claire rebukes the idea immediately — she won’t own people as property — but Jamie wants to at least explore the possibility of working toward freeing River Run’s 152 slaves and paying those men and women wages.

Here is a NEW Interview with Lotte Verbeek from Vulture
From Vulture:
Last week, Outlander’s resident witch and Scottish revolutionary Geillis Duncan returned to the show in a literal blood bath. In Sunday’s season finale, she went out in one. After threatening to murder Claire and Jamie’s daughter to fulfill a prophecy that would restore a Scottish king, Claire swung a cane axe at Geillis’s throat, almost taking her head clear off. Geillis suffered a bloody end, but she died how she lived: fighting for a revolution in Scotland. But is this really the end of our favorite time-traveling Scottish cougar? Could she return to the show through flashbacks or other magic? “I think everything is possible,” Verbeek told Vulture ahead of the big finale. Below, the rest of our chat.

Here is a NEW Interview with Caitriona Balfe and Sam Heughan from Vulture
From Vulture:
The moment has arrived, people. After being separated by decades (or is it centuries?) of time-travel, war, and heartache, sexy soulmates Claire Beauchamp Randall Fraser and Jamie “the Dunbonnet” Fraser have finally (finally!) been reunited. Although the two look like they have maybe aged a day, the Scottish lovers are not the same people they once were. Claire has been in a cold marriage for 20 years, raising her and Jamie’s daughter, and Laird Broch Tuarach has been a fugitive, a convict, and a father to a son he had to leave behind. We caught up with the very-well-acquainted stars at San Diego Comic Con to talk about this season’s most anticipated moment.

Here is a NEW Interview with Sam Heughan and Caitriona Balfe from Vulture
From Vulture:
The characters in Starz’s romance-fantasy-drama Outlander hop between the 18th and 20th centuries. But where would series star Sam Heughan, who plays Jamie, go if he could?

Here is a new interview with Sam Heughan from Vulture
From Vulture:
Thanks to the flash-forward in the Outlander season finale, we got to see what an older Claire looks and acts like — but we won’t be privy to how aging affects her 18th-century husband Jamie until we return in season three. When Vulture caught up with actor Sam Heughan at a screening of Star Trek Beyond on Monday night, we inquired about how he’s prepping to play an older Jamie. “I’m thinking about getting really fat,” he joked. “I’m thinking eating a lot and not working out would be really good.” But Heughan knows that’s not in his character’s best interests. “Do we really want to see that?” he quickly added, shaking his head.

Here is a new interview with Diana Gabaldon from Vulture
From Vulture:
Spoilers ahead for the most recent episode of Outlander.
Outlander, the television series, is based on a series of books by Diana Gabaldon (season two is adapted from Dragonfly in Amber). And while the author has served as a consultant on the show, helping shape what you see onscreen and even making the odd cameo, Saturday’s episode was the first one actually scripted by her. Showrunner Ron D. Moore likely picked episode 11 for Gabaldon because it matches its source material pretty well in terms of chronology, which would make it relatively easy for her to transform it into a script, “without doing violence to my sense of composition,” she laughed. Gabaldon chatted with Vulture about how Outlander isn’t really a romance, why she shot Rupert in the eye, and how much of her script she had to change on set.

Here is a new interview with Matt Roberts and Caitriona Balfe from Vutlture
From Vulture:
Spoilers ahead for the most recent episode of Outlander.
As our favorite Scottish highlanders prepare for their battle against the British, Claire starts having flashbacks to World War II. Given how little she’s even talked about her experience as a combat nurse, you might wonder why it’s weighing upon her now — especially given that in the books, she wasn’t suffering from PTSD. (Or shell shock, as she might’ve called it).
