Starz has released the official Season 7 trailer for Outlander ahead of its June 16 premiere. The premium network also unveiled the key art depicting the American Revolution in full swing with the tagline “Our History is Now,” featuring Jamie (Sam Heughan) and Claire (Caitríona Balfe) on a battlefield. See below.
Season seven picks up from the harrowing events of the end of season six, with Jamie and Young Ian racing to rescue Claire before she’s tried and wrongfully convicted for the murder of Malva Christie. But their mission is complicated by the beginning of a geopolitical firestorm: The American Revolution has arrived.
In Season 7, Jamie, Claire, and their family are caught in the violent birth pains of an emerging nation as armies march to war and British institutions crumble in the face of armed rebellion.
The land the Frasers call home is changing – and they must change with it. In order to protect what they’ve built, the Frasers have to navigate the perils of the Revolutionary War. They learn that sometimes to defend what you love, you have to leave it behind. As the conflict draws them out of North Carolina and into the heart of this fight for independence, Jamie, Claire, Brianna, and Roger are faced with impossible decisions that have the potential to tear their family apart.
In addition to Balfe and Heughan, cast includes Sophie Skelton as “Brianna MacKenzie,” Richard Rankin as “RogerMacKenzie,” John Bell as “YoungIan,” David Berry as “Lord John Grey,” along with newcomers Charles Vandervaart as “William Ransom,” Izzy Meikle-Small as “Rachel Hunter” and Joey Phillips as “Denzell Hunter.”
Matthew B. Roberts, Ronald D. Moore, Maril Davis, Toni Graphia, Luke Schelhaas, Andy Harries, Jim Kohlberg, Caitríona Balfe and Sam Heughan executive produce.
Inspired by Diana Gabaldon’s international best-selling books, Outlander is produced by Tall Ship Productions, Left Bank Pictures and Story Mining & Supply Company, in association with Sony Pictures Television.
Season 7 premieres Friday, June 16 at midnight ET on the Starz app, all Starz streaming and on-demand platforms and internationally on the Lionsgate+ premium streaming platform in the UK. On linear, it will debut on Starz on Friday, June 16 at 8 PM ET/PT in the U.S.
