Slater noted that the scene's set-up reminded her of an iconic scene in Baz Luhrmann's film adaptation of Shakespeare's play, Romeo + Juliet. " The very first time in the barn, it reminded us all a bit of the scene in Romeo + Juliet with the fish tank. That was my first thought when I read it. It's such a beautiful scene."

Outlander has been renewed for an eighth and final season, which will premiere in 2026, and a new teaser has been released showing how far Claire and Jamie Fraser have come

Jamie Roy and Sam Heughan aren't related in real life, but the resemblance between the two Outlander stars is striking. So much so that it turns out Roy originally auditioned for the flagship series, only for producers to decide they needed to save him for Blood of my Blood, on which Roy now portrays Brian Fraser, the father of Heughan's Jamie.

The new Outlander spin-off series deepens the emotional weight of Claire’s original journey in the original, according to its cast.
