New looks for Jamie and Claire in ⁠Outlander Season 8

With Outlander Season 8 on the way, the leaked set photos have fans buzzing with excitement and discussion. Jamie and Claire were young and full of life in the early seasons. Now, after all they've been through, they might be older, but their connection is as strong as ever.

Caitríona Balfe Claire will have a more noticeable grey hair look this season. Some fans have playfully called her "full powers" in the comments under the actress' Instagram post. But not everyone is on board—some fans are worried that Claire looks older than her husband on the show.

In the meantime, Sam Heughan's Jamie has his signature ginger hair down instead of the tight ponytail from earlier seasons. This change in style has also stirred up some mixed feelings among fans. Some love how it fits the characters' growth, while others are skeptical about such a significant shift.

Jamie and Claire Fraser's adventure has been anything but normal, and as they prepare for the last part of Outlander, fans are curious to know how the season will end. Since Diana Gabaldon's last book isn't out yet, it is tough to guess how things will go with no source material this time. She's been working on the 10th and final book in the Outlander series since 2021.

Caitríona Balfe says the ending is a mystery, even for the cast, which only increases the buzz around the finale. While filming in Scotland, the actors have been sharing snippets and hints about the final season. Balfe shared some heartfelt thoughts, too.

This highlights how close the cast and fans feel about the show, which makes the final season even more special. In season 7, part 2, Jamie, Claire, and Ian are back in Scotland after the American Revolutionary War, making their way to Lallybroch, their family home. At the same time, Roger and Brianna are on a mission to find their son, Jemmy, who was kidnapped by Rob Cameron and taken through the stones to search for some hidden Jacobite gold.


Season 7 Part 2 will air on STARZ on November 22, 2024, with new episodes airing weekly. You can binge the previous seasons on the STARZ app to get ready.
