STARZ has released the first trailer for its upcoming prequel series Outlander: Blood of My Blood, which you can watch below! (Via The Playlist)
The rich tapestry of the “Outlander” franchise expands once again. Set long before Claire and Jamie’s iconic romance, ‘Blood of My Blood’ explores two parallel love stories set generations apart: one amidst the brutality of World War I and the other against the raw, untamed backdrop of 18th-century Scotland.
The series traces the early lives of the couples who shaped ‘Outlander’s central characters — Claire Randall’s parents, Julia Moriston and Henry Beauchamp, and Jamie Fraser’s parents, Ellen MacKenzie and Brian Fraser.
Hermione Corfield as Julia Moriston and Jeremy Irvine as Henry Beauchamp, while Harriet Slater and Jamie Roy portray Ellen MacKenzie and Brian Fraser, whose defiant love unfolds on the eve of a Jacobite uprising. Tony Curran, Séamus McLean Ross, Sam Retford, Rory Alexander and Conor MacNeill co-star.
Series showrunner Matthew B. Roberts returns as od ‘Outlander’ creators Ronald D. Moore, Maril Davis, and Jim Kohlberg, all serving as executive producers. The show has already been renewed for a second season before the first one debuts.
Outlander is a historical drama television series based on the book series of the same name by Diana Gabaldon. Developed by Ronald D. Moore, the show premiered on August 9, 2014, on Starz. It stars Caitríona Balfe as Claire Randall, an English former World War II military nurse in Scotland who, in 1945, finds herself transported back in time to 1743. There, she encounters, falls in love with, and marries a dashing Highland warrior named Jamie Fraser (Sam Heughan), a tacksman of Clan Fraser of Lovat. Here, Claire becomes embroiled in the Jacobite rising.
Outlander: Blood of My Blood begins on STARZ on August 8th.
