Outlander – What Is Blood Of My Blood All About?

Blood of My Blood tells the story of Jamie’s parents, Brian Fraser and Ellen MacKenzie. The details are quite limited, but in general, it’s about love.

“Outlander: Blood of My Blood is, at its heart, a love story.

Roberts explained, per TV Insider.

Matthew B. Roberts also teased that fans will see familiar names and faces. Some possibilities include Ellen’s siblings, Jocasta (Maria Doyle Kennedy), Dougall (Graham McTavish), and Colum MacKenzie (Gary Lewis).

The family confidant Murtagh (Duncan Lacroix) is also possible to appear, given that he has affection for Ellen.

Outlander – Will Sam Heughan Appear In The Prequel?

Outlander: Blood of My Blood focus on Jamie’s parents in their youth, so Sam thinks it may be challenging to fit his character, but he says, “Never say no.”

In the world of TV, anything is possible, and the show has lots of surprises, so he might appear in some capacity. With the time travel aspect of the show, it’s also possible for Claire (Catriona Balfe) to appear and make a connection between Jamie and his parents.

Outlander: Blood of My Blood received the green light in August last year. Meanwhile, Outlander Season 7 is currently airing, with the filming for the latter half yet to begin.
