More details about the show's season 7 explored
Scheduled to debut on Friday, June 16, at 8:00 pm ET, the first episode of the Starz series' season 7 has been written by Danielle Berrow. The title and the director for the episodes are yet to be revealed by Starz.
The end of the preceding season 6 of the series saw the series' lead character, Claire Fraser, getting arrested on charges of murder, and the series' other main character, Jamie Fraser, having to go on a quest to find her.
Sam Heughan, who plays the protagonist role of Jamie Fraser, revealed in an interview with US Weekly that the upcoming seventh season will pick up right where Outlander season 6 ended.
Heughan said:
"We pick up shortly after the end of last season, which is a great cliffhanger,...America really is in sort of turmoil. There’s revolution, and Jamie and Claire are separated,...There’s also the prophecy of Jamie and Claire’s death, you know, that they’re supposed to die in a fire. There’s just so much going on." (Via US Weekly)
He further added:
"This really is a super-sized season,...We really start off with a bang. The first couple episodes are really strong." (Via US Weekly)
