Outlander: Blood of My Blood star Jamie Roy just shared behind-the-scenes photos from the hit Starz spinoff — and fans are saying the same thing in the comments.
On Sunday, August 10, the actor behind Jamie Fraser’s (Sam Heughan) father, Brian, took to Instagram with a carousel of pictures offering a sneak peek at the production of the Outlander prequel. The first two episodes, “Providence” and “S.W.A.K. (Sealed With a Kiss),” premiered on Friday, August 8.
“Episodes 1 and 2 are out!! Thank you so much for all the lovely words and messages, and thank you for watching!” Roy captioned his update. “Here’s a few bts. Fun going down memory lane. Spot any familiar sights? 🤓 @outlander_starz.”
For the featured image, the Scottish actor smiled while posing beside Harriet Slater, who portrays Jamie’s mother, Ellen McKenzie. The gorgeous Scottish Highlands served as the backdrop of the snap. Other shots showed Roy with Rory Alexander, who plays Murtagh Fitzgibbons, and Tony Curran, who plays Brian’s father, Simon Fraser (aka Lord Lovat).
The show also stars Hermione Corfield as Claire’s (Caitriona Balfe) mother, Julia Moriston, and Jeremy Irvine as Claire’s father, Henry Beauchamp.
