Outlander: Blood of my Blood Season 2 Trailer and Key Art Debut
STARZ has released the key art and trailer for season two of the critically acclaimed prequel series, Outlander: Blood of my Blood.
Following the epic finale of Outlander, fans of the time-traveling universe won’t have to endure an extended “droughtlander” this year, as the latest chapter of the prequel series debuts on Friday, September 18, with new episodes available to stream weekly on Fridays only on STARZ.
The new trailer takes viewers on a captivating journey back in time to 1700s Scotland and the start of the Jacobite Uprising. Everyone has their own war to fight this season, with devastating effects as the series’ two young couples desperately try to find their ways back to each other amid brutal battles, shifting loyalties, clan politics and the unknown elements of traveling through the infamous standing stones of Craigh Na Dun.
Season One of Outlander: Blood of my Blood introduced viewers to the two different, but equally passionate, love stories featuring the parents of Claire and Jamie as they met and fought to be together against all odds. Longtime Outlander fans and newcomers were surprised to learn the impact and influence these two couples had on each other’s lives as their paths intersected.
In the second season of Outlander: Blood of my Blood, our lovers are separated once again as the Scottish Highlands are split in two by the 1715 Jacobite Rising, thrusting the clans into war and forcing them to choose a side in the rebellion.
With the fiery crosses lit, Brian and his cousin Murtagh must return to Castle Leathers and pledge to fight beside his father, the scheming Simon Fraser, Lord Lovat.
Ellen reluctantly returns to Castle Leoch to find her brothers, Colum and Dougal, feuding over how to respond to the call to arms. She cleverly devises a plan to protect Clan MacKenzie from the Crown regardless of the outcome of the uprising.
Meanwhile, Henry and Julia Beauchamp, finally reunited after their unexpected journey back in time left them lost and separated, are ready to return back to their time and their daughter, Claire. When their plan goes horribly awry, the couple is parted once again.
Separated from his love and hope, Henry must grapple with his mental health, as he fights to find his way back to Julia, who is forced to return to Castle Leathers and contend with her sinister husband, Lord Lovat.
Outlander: Blood of my Blood stars Jeremy Irvine as Henry Beauchamp and Hermione Corfield as Julia Beauchamp, Claire’s parents; and Jamie Roy as Brian Fraser and Harriet Slater as Ellen MacKenzie, Jamie’s parents.
