While there isn’t a new episode of Outlander likely coming in 2025, there is something within the universe. It’s all about Outlander: Blood of My Blood.
The bad news is we won’t get new episodes of the prequel series in March 2025. This month still has a Droughtlander feel to it. To make it even worse, we won’t even get a new episode of The Couple Next Door with Sam Heughan in it!
Outlander: Blood of My Blood is coming in 2025
In some good news, there will be a new episode within the Outlander universe later this year. The prequel series will premiere sometime in summer 2025. That’s all that STARZ has shared at the moment. At least we have a season, which means that STARZ shouldn’t push the release back now.
When in the summer, though? When it was Outlander season 7A, we got the release in early summer. In fact, it was more like late spring, as the release was June 16! However, when Outlander season 7B’s release was fall 2024, it was later in the fall, arriving at the end of November. So, it’s hard to say when in summer 2025 we’ll get Outlander: Blood of My Blood.
The portals are open over Summer Solstice, so Friday, June 20 would make an excellent date as it’s close to it. Another great date would be Friday, Aug. 8, getting close to mark 11 years that the Outlander series premiere aired.
What is Outlander: Blood of My Blood about?
This series takes us back to the start. We get to learn more about Jamie’s parents and Claire’s parents.
Outlander: Blood of My Blood is a prequel. What we know of Brian and Ellen Fraser may not be the full truth. After all, people don’t always tell the whole story of their lives, and this prequel gives us a chance to learn what really happened. I’m sure if there are changes to the story, some fans will claim that the show hasn’t stuck faithfully to canon, failing to realize that we may have been dealing with unreliable narrators.
At least when it comes to Henry and Julia Beauchamp, we won’t need to deal with problems with canon. We know nothing about Claire’s parents as they don’t talk to Diana Gabaldon, so that’s going to mean more room to play with the characters. Could we finally learn which one of them is the time traveler?
Outlander: Blood of My Blood will arrive in summer 2025 on STARZ.
Stay up to date with the latest Outlander news and more with Claire and Jamie.
