Outlander’s Claire Gets Devastating News About Jamie in New Season 7, Part 2 Trailer
When both Claire Fraser and Lord John Gray look like their worlds are ending, it can only mean one thing: Something very bad has befallen James Alexander Malcolm Mackenzie Fraser.
And that’s the case about halfway through Outlander’s official Season 7 Part 2 trailer, which Starz released Thursday in conjunction with the show’s New York Comic Con panel.

As previously announced, the second half of Season 7 will premiere on Friday, Nov. 22, at 8/7c on Starz. (New episodes will be available at midnight Fridays on the Starz app and all Starz streaming and on-demand platforms.)
The eight episodes left in Season 7 will find Claire, Jamie and Young Ian returning to Scotland, where — per the official synopsis — “the perils of the Revolutionary War force them to choose between standing by those they love and fighting for the land they have made their new home.” While that’s going on, Roger and Brianna “face new enemies across time, and must battle the forces that threaten to pull their family apart.”
The series recently wrapped filming on its eighth and final season, which will consist of 10 episodes. In the show’s swan song, Kieran Bew (House of the Dragon) will play Capt. Charles Cunningham, a retired British soldier. Frances Tomelty (Catastrophe) will play his mother, Elspeth Cunningham. Carla Woodcock (Free Rein) will play Amaranthus Grey, who is described as “a new member of the Grey family.”
As previously reported, showrunner Matthew B. Roberts said Season 7 will also “revisit some of our favorite characters in different times and places,” and will feature the return of Graham McTavish (who plays Dougal MacKenzie), Nell Hudson (Laoghaire Fraser), Steven Cree (the elder Ian Murray), Lotte Verbeek (Geillis Duncan), Andrew Whipp (Brian Fraser) and Layla Burns (Joan MacKimmmie).
Sometime series star Tobias Menzies recently divulged to TVLine that he will not reprise his roles of Frank Randall or Jonathan Wolverton “Black Jack” Randall before the series signs off for good. “It would be great,” he said in an interview. “[But] no, you will not see me.”
The network also previously ordered a spinoff, Outlander: Blood of My Blood, centered on Jamie’s and Claire’s parents.
