‘Outlander: Blood Of My Blood’ Season 2 Trailer Sets Up Jacobite Uprising

Starz has released the first trailer (above) for Outlander: Blood of My Blood for Season 2, setting up a journey back in time to 1700s Scotland and the start of the Jacobite uprising. New episodes of the prequel series debut on Friday, September 18, with new episodes dropping weekly on Fridays only on Starz.

Everyone has their own war to fight in Season 2, 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 1 of Outlander: Blood of My Blood introduced viewers to the two different love stories featuring the parents of Claire and Jamie as they met and fought to be together against all odds.

In the second season of Outlander: Blood of My Blood, the two couples 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 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.

The series 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. In addition, the cast also includes Tony Curran as Simon Fraser, Lord Lovat; Séamus McLean Ross as Colum MacKenzie; Sam Retford as Dougal MacKenzie; Rory Alexander as Murtagh Fitzgibbons Fraser; and Conor MacNeill as Ned Gowan.
