All about Outlander: Blood of My Blood season 1

While still existing in the Outlander universe, Outlander: Blood of My Blood season 1 is a standalone prequel series of the hit period drama. Unlike the original series, it's not based on pre-existing material or any book by Diana Gabaldon, although she serves as a consulting producer in the series.

It will be an original prequel that will chart the romance between Jamie Fraser's parents, Brian Fraser (Jamie Roy) and Ellen MacKenzie (Harriet Slater). There has been much mystery surrounding the two characters, mostly because they were never seen together in the original show. Jamie's parents were only talked about in passing and only in memory.

But taking inspiration from the original show, Outlander: Blood of My Blood season 1 will also feature an overarching story. The other storyline is set in the 20th century to tell a similar mysterious and unknown story of Claire's parents, Henry Beauchamp (Jeremy Irvine) and Julia Moriston (Hermione Corfield).

With this in mind, the new show is expected to give fans a look at both the Scottish Highlands in the early 18th century and sometime around the upheaval of the First World War in Europe. Based on the teaser trailer, the time-traveling arc will continue its way to the prequel because it turns out that the ability runs in the family.
