Outlander Season 5 is currently filming and it’s not surprising that there are some new faces in the cast. While names of the characters haven’t been shared, here’s a look at some of the new faces to expect.
With Outlander Season 5 filming underway, all eyes are on who will play some of the more prominent people in the series. Last month, Real People Casting put out a call for two sets of twins, which we quickly believed would be for Outlander. While the two sets haven’t been included in the list of new faces joining the series, there are four children present.
Real People Casting is the Scottish agency that finds many of the extras and smaller roles. The agency routinely posts headshots of some of the actors and actresses that are getting ready for filming, whether it’s for Outlander, Doctors, or other British dramas.

Most recently, there have been some new faces joining Outlander Season 5. First up is a look at the children. While there are no character names, there is speculation that the faces will play the likes of older Jemmy and Germain, among some of the other children to come. It’s hard to tell if the theories are right without knowing the type of time jump the show will have.
Considering the first part of the season is meant to be shortly after the Outlander Season 4 finale, it doesn’t seem like Germain and Jemmy will be among the child actors. However, the series doesn’t necessarily film in order. There will be other children on Fraser’s Ridge for Claire to tend to, so maybe these youngsters will be some of the guest stars.

Then there is the collection of adults for the show. Many fans believe that the older two at the bottom will be Mr. and Mrs. Bugg. There are also theories that Christies are among the faces. The actors could just be some of the smaller roles on the series, as Fraser’s Ridge starts to grow.

We’ll have to wait and see. Despite filming, very little has been shared about Outlander Season 5. None of the bigger roles in the season have been announced just yet. However, it took a while for anything about Season 4 to be shared, including the casting of Maria Doyle Kennedy and Ed Speleers as Aunt Jocasta and Stephen Bonnet respectively.
