Original title: Outlander: Blood of My Blood
Nationality: United States
The first season followed two parallel storylines. On the one hand, Julia Moriston (Hermione Corfield) and Henry Beauchamp (Jeremy Irvine), the would-be parents of Claire, whose love story that began during the First World War carries them to the Scottish Highlands of the 18the century. On the other, Ellen MacKenzie (Harriet Slater) and Brian Fraser (Jamie Roy), the would-be parents of Jamie, who fall in love despite the feuding between their clans.
Season 2 picks up right after the finale’s cliffhanger. Henry and Julia reunite at the Craigh na Dun stones, hopeful they can return to their own time and to their daughter Claire. But the teaser hints at a fresh rift between the pair as Henry presses on with his research in an ever more unforgiving Scotland. Meanwhile, Ellen and Brian see their escape thwarted as the Jacobite rising of 1715 erupts, dragging the clans into war.
According to HBO Max, the two couples will once again be separated by events beyond their control, as each faction must pledge its allegiance in the midst of the rebellion. The teaser places just as much emphasis on the forthcoming battles as on the family and romantic ties that form the heart of the series.
The main ensemble is back with Hermione Corfield, Jeremy Irvine, Harriet Slater and Jamie Roy. They’re joined by Tony Curran (as Simon Fraser, Lord Lovat), Séamus McLean Ross (Colum MacKenzie), Sam Retford (Dougal MacKenzie), Rory Alexander (Murtagh Fitzgibbons Fraser) and Conor MacNeill (Ned Gowan). Matthew B. Roberts remains showrunner and executive producer alongside Ronald D. Moore and Maril Davis. The series is produced by Sony Pictures Television and sits within the universe imagined by Diana Gabaldon, whose novels have sold nearly 50 million copies worldwide.
