Outlander fans, brace yourselves! While there’s no specific release date yet, recent updates on Season 8 have the fandom buzzing with excitement.
As Starz’s flagship series hits its tenth anniversary in 2024, anticipation is high for the eighth installment of this beloved Scottish time-travel drama.
Actor Sam Heughan, speaking at The Land Con 6 in Paris, revealed that filming for Season 8 is well underway, with three weeks already in the can. His co-star Caitríona Balfe echoed this sentiment, expressing a mix of sadness and excitement as they near the end of the journey.
But when can fans expect Season 8 to hit their screens? While no official announcement has been made, Heughan hinted during an appearance on The Graham Norton Radio Show that filming will continue until October 2024.
With Season 7, Part B slated for release on Starz in November 2024, and spanning eight episodes into early 2025, it’s safe to assume that the gap between seasons will likely be extended.
Traditionally, Outlander seasons are released annually, suggesting a mid- to late-2025 premiere for Season 8. Given that it’s the final chapter of this epic saga, Starz is sure to make it an event to remember.
So, while the wait may be long, the promise of returning to the world of Outlander for one last adventure is more than worth it for fans of this timeless series.
