Sassenachs, get your handkerchiefs ready because STARZ has just gifted us something truly worthy of Lallybroch to celebrate Outlander Day in the best possible way! The streaming service has released brand-new photos from Outlander: Blood of My Blood and The Gathering, along with three exclusive sneak peeks of The Gathering. All of this will drop on June 1 on the official STARZ YouTube channel and the STARZ app, in honor of World Outlander Day—the day we raise our whisky (or Scottish tea) and toast Slàinte mhath to the Fraser universe. Ready?
Here we go!
The Gathering: Past, Present, and Future of the Frasers Collide
In The Gathering, STARZ achieves the unimaginable: bringing together the casts of Outlander and its prequel Blood of My Blood for the very first time in an intimate, emotional, and deeply revealing tribute to the legacy of the last 11 years. The special features interviews with executive producers and cast members from both series as they reflect on what ties these stories together: love, lineage, and the unbreakable bonds between the Frasers, MacKenzies, and Beauchamps.
And if you’re already feeling emotional, brace yourself—because the three sneak peeks released are pure magic:
In the first clip, we get to know Ellen MacKenzie, Jamie Fraser’s mother, and her fierce, tender spirit. Her strength and grace echo unmistakably in Brianna, her granddaughter—it’s as if emotional DNA is a Fraser family trait. The second clip introduces Julia Beauchamp, Claire’s mother, whose sharp intellect and boundless compassion leave a lasting impression. Watching her feels like reuniting with the Claire we met all the way back in Season 1. The third sneak peek is all about what it means to belong to the Fraser clan: the sacrifices, the deep emotional ties, and the beauty of a family that keeps moving forward through time and turmoil.

Blood of My Blood: Where Eternal Love Begins
The new photos from Outlander: Blood of My Blood are a visual love letter to the past, showcasing the epic romances of Ellen and Brian Fraser—and Julia and Henry Beauchamp—with breathtaking cinematography. The Scottish landscapes, the period costumes, the palpable chemistry between the new leads… it all promises a series as rich and soul-stirring as the original. Each frame carries a melancholic elegance, whispering that this story began long before Claire ever touched the stones.

Outlander Final Season Teaser: The Most Anticipated (and Dreaded) Goodbye
Although STARZ released this teaser a few months ago, we’re bringing it back to your attention for… reasons (wink, wink).
The teaser includes a haunting quote taken directly from Diana Gabaldon’s books: “If my last words are not I love you, it’s because I didn’t have time.” And just when you think you can’t take any more, we get a glimpse of Jamie delicately kissing Claire’s hand with the tenderness of a man who knows time is his enemy, but love is eternal. It’s only a few seconds long—but it’s everything Outlander has ever been.
Outlander hasn’t just given us an epic story of love, time, and family. It’s shown us that roots run deep, that bonds are unbreakable, and that even goodbyes can be a form of everlasting love.
So this Outlander Day, celebrate with a rewatch, with your best friends, with a glass of whisky—or just by rereading your favorite quotes. Because Jamie and Claire, Ellen and Brian, Julia and Henry… they’re never truly gone.
Slàinte, Sassenachs. The journey continues.
The Gathering drops June 1 at 7 pm ET on the STARZ YouTube channel and the STARZ app.
