‘Outlander: Blood of My Blood’ Season 2 Release Date, Time and Where to Watch

Scotland is calling once again, and the wait is nearly over. ‘Outlander: Blood of My Blood’ is set to return with a season filled with war, heartbreak, and the kind of forbidden romance that made the original series a cultural phenomenon.

Following the conclusion of ‘Outlander‘ after its eight-season run in May, the prequel spinoff is stepping up to continue the Fraser family saga. This timing is perfect for fans still processing the series finale, which sparked plenty of debate.

The second season of the romantic epic prequel series will launch on September 18. Filming wrapped in February 2026, and now fans can mark their calendars for this eagerly awaited date, especially after the season one finale left many questions unanswered.

The premiere episode, titled Remembrance Day, will dive right back into the narrative, reintroducing viewers to Brian, Ellen, Henry, and Julia, setting the stage for how their stories will intertwine throughout the season. Given how season one concluded, fans will likely appreciate every moment of this premiere.

Season 2 will transport Brian Fraser, Ellen MacKenzie, Henry Beauchamp, and Julia Moriston Beauchamp directly into the 1715 Jacobite Rising. The love stories established in season one will clash with war, clan politics, time travel, and inheritance, making this chapter heavier and more consequential than its predecessor.

In the United States, viewers can catch the series on Starz and stream it via the Starz app and add-on subscriptions. For those outside the U.S., the show will be available on MGM Plus. This international division has become standard for the franchise, so dedicated fans should be familiar with the process.

Episodes of ‘Outlander: Blood of My Blood’ will premiere on Starz at 8 p.m. New episodes will drop every Friday, allowing fans to establish a weekly viewing routine once again.

Season one is also currently streaming on Starz for anyone looking to catch up before the new episodes begin. With the introduction of new characters and timelines, a quick rewatch before September 18 could be beneficial for those needing a refresher.

All ten episodes will be released weekly, with Starz confirming the launch date but not yet providing a complete episode schedule. Thus, the exact finale date remains unconfirmed, although calculations suggest it will conclude in late fall.

The season one finale left fans in shock, and the new trailer quickly addresses the aftermath. The teaser indicates that only Henry returned to the 20th century after their attempt to escape through the stones, leaving Julia behind in the past.

It appears Henry’s memory may have been impacted, as a line about waking up every day knowing something is missing suggests he might not remember Julia at all. Meanwhile, Julia is shown holding a newborn, leading fans to speculate that it could be a baby Claire.

The newly released full trailer further explores the fate of Henry and Julia’s cliffhanger, confirming he was sent traveling through time and separated from Julia and their newborn son once again. This setup raises the emotional stakes heading into the new episodes.

The footage also shows Brian and Ellen caught between warring clans amid significant battle scenes that shift between the past and present, alongside the passionate chemistry fans have come to expect. Balancing two love stories across different timelines is no small feat, but this dual structure has become a hallmark of the show.

The cast for Season 2 includes Jeremy Irvine, Hermione Corfield, Jamie Roy, Harriet Slater, 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. This ensemble features a rich array of familiar ‘Outlander’ names for devoted fans to connect with.

Matthew B. Roberts serves as the showrunner for both the flagship series and this prequel, alongside executive producers Ronald D. Moore, Maril Davis, Toni Graphia, Luke Schelhaas, Michael Wilson, Jim Kohlberg, and Luke Parker Bowles. The series is produced by Sony Pictures Television.

Roberts has shared insights into the tone fans can expect from the new episodes. He hopes viewers will fall in love with these new couples just as they did with Jamie and Claire.

The season’s love stories will now intertwine with the choices that ultimately shape Jamie and Claire’s world, linking this prequel directly back to the mythology that longtime fans cherish. With the Jacobite Rising in full swing, it seems that no one in Brian and Ellen’s circle will be able to avoid the conflict.

With Henry possibly forgetting the love of his life and Julia stranded in the past with their newborn son, which reunion or heartbreak are you rooting for the most when ‘Outlander: Blood of My Blood’ returns on September 18?
