"I remember when I saw you for the first time. I remember every moment. Every second. I'll never forget," Sam Heughan as Jamie Fraser says in the teaser as a series of flashbacks with Claire Randall, played by Caitriona Balfe, recall key moments in their longrunning romance. Season 7 of Outlander, a blend of drama and romance based on Diana Gabaldon's series of novels, saw the Frasers get swept up in the turmoil of the American Revolution, with the series finale capturing Jamie deciding to resign his Continental Army commission and return to Fraser's Ridge with Claire. As the final season begins, Jamie and Claire apparently find war has followed them home to Fraser's Ridge, by now a thriving settlement that grew in their absence.

"With everything that's about to come, I'm so scared to lose everything," Claire tells Jamie as the battle for Fraser's Ridge rages in the background in the teaser trailer. The final season, set to premiere in early 2026, will also see the Frasers attempt to keep a united front against outside intruders, only to see family secrets surface and threaten to tear them apart from the inside. As the end to Outlander brings Claire and Jamie's romance tale to a conclusion, Starz has lauched a prequel series titled Outlander: Blood of My Blood, which premiered its first season in August and has already been renewed for season two. The prequel chronicles the love story of Jamie Fraser's parents, Brian Fraser (Jamie Roy) and Ellen MacKenzie (Harriet Slater), with Matthew B. Roberts continuing showrunning duties from the main series. Gabaldon is a consulting producer.
