Production has begun on the Outlander prequel series Blood of My Blood, which focuses on the parents of Outlander lead characters Jamie and Claire.

The 10-episode season will be filmed in Scotland, with Harriet Slater (“Pennyworth,” “Belgravia: The Next Chapter”), Jamie Roy (Condor’s Nest, Flowers and Honey), Hermione Corfield (The Road Dance, “We Hunt Together”), and Jeremy Irvine (War Horse, Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again) leading the cast.

Outlander: Blood of My Blood will explore the lives and relationship of Jamie’s parents, Ellen MacKenzie (Slater) and Brian Fraser (Roy) and  the origin story of Claire’s parents, Julia Moriston (Corfield) and Henry Beauchamp (Irvine). The series will center on these two parallel love stories set in two different time periods, with Jamie’s parents in the early 18th century Scottish Highlands and Claire’s parents in Great War England.

“We’re thrilled to be telling the stories of these two couples. The origins of their relationships explore universal themes that transcend time periods and we’re so excited for fans to discover and fall in love with these characters and their love stories the way they have with Claire and Jamie,” Matthew B. Roberts, showrunner, executive producer and writer on both Blood of My Blood and Outlander.

The 10-episode eighth season of Outlander will begin production shortly in Scotland.
