Sam Heughan and Graham McTavish wrap their time in New Zealand

Sam Heughan and Graham McTavish took to New Zealand during February for Men in Kilts Season 2. That time has come to an end.

Sam and Graham have been extremely busy the last couple of weeks. They’ve been filming for Men in Kilts Season 2.

STARZ renewed the series toward the end of 2021 with the news that the duo would head to New Zealand. It made a lot of sense for a couple of main reasons: there is a lot of Scottish culture adopted in New Zealand, and Graham McTavish lives there.

We didn’t know much about when filming would start. We were certainly surprised when the duo shared a photo of them in New Zealand starting their filming.

Men in Kilts Season 2 filming wrapped?

Heughan took to Instagram just days later to share the news that he was heading back home. He and McTavish were done with their road trip.

This is certainly surprising. The road trip took just a week. That is based on the images, anyway. It is possible that some filming happened earlier and that the duo just shared their promotional photos when they could.

There have been a few fan photos leaked around the internet. One of them makes it look like Heughan has a tattoo on his forearm. This is likely a temporary tattoo as there was another photo of McTavish with a similar-looking tattoo on the back of one of his arms. They likely had the temporary artwork put on for filming Men in Kilts.

Could you imagine the makeup team for Outlander if Sam turned up with that? Poor Sam already spends hours in the makeup chair for the back scars.

We’re certainly hoping that this means Men in Kilts Season 2 will arrive sometime in 2022.

Men in Kilts is available to stream on STARZ.
