In celebration of 10 years of Outlander , Sam Heughan took part in PaleyFest New York 2024 as he and fellow castmates— Caitríona Balfe , Sophie Skelton , Richard Rankin and John Bell , as well as executive producer Maril Davis —teased what is to come when the second half of Season 7 ends the Droughtlander on Nov. 22. But first, Parade got an exclusive moment on the red carpet with the hot Scot, who plays series star Jamie Fraser, to reminisce a bit about what he would tell his first-season self.
“[I would tell my first season self] that it's going to be a journey,” Heughan says. “When we first started, I think I told my driver Davey Stewart ..
. He asked me on the first day, ‘How long do you think this will last?’ I said, ‘A season maybe two,’ and now 11 years— eight seasons—later, what a journey it has been. So, maybe, I don't know, sleep a little more, take more holidays, enjoy it.
I wouldn't change anything. It's been incredible.” Related: Outlander Season 7 Part 2 Unveils Key Art & Trailer When Outlander returns, Jamie, Claire (Balfe) and Young Ian (Bell) have just arrived in Scotland where they return to Lallybroch, as Jamie had promised his sister Jenny (now played by Kristin Atherton ) he would return her son to her.
