MGM+ sets September launch date for Outlander: Blood of my Blood Season 2

June 2, 2026

Following last month’s epic series finale of Outlander, the Outlander universe continues to expand as MGM+ and Sony Pictures Television celebrates World Outlander Day with a September 19th premiere date for Season Two of the critically acclaimed prequel series, Outlander: Blood of my Blood. Season One introduced viewers to the two different, but equally passionate, love stories of Claire’s and Jamie’s parents as they met and fought to be together against all odds. Longtime Outlander fans and newcomers were surprised to learn the impact and influence these two couples had in each other’s lives as their paths intersected.

The new teaser trailer (VIEW HERE) features a first look at the action-packed upcoming season, which showcases the enduring love of the series’ two iconic lead couples and offers hope for survival amid a brewing war as they fight for each other and the future of the Highlands. After an unexpected journey back in time left Henry (Jeremy Irvine) and Julia (Hermione Corfield) Beauchamp lost and separated in the sweeping highlands of 18th century Scotland, Season One culminated with the two finally reuniting at the standing stones of Craigh na Dun, hoping to return to their own time and their young daughter, Claire. The first glimpse at Season Two picks up at that moment and reveals a distraught Julia alone with their baby. Separated from his love and hope, Henry must grapple with his mental health, as he fights to find his way back to her.

Meanwhile, the forbidden relationship between Brian Fraser (Jamie Roy) and Ellen MacKenzie (Harriet Slater) seemed to conquer all odds, but their romantic escape was cut short as fiery crosses were lit and the 1715 Jacobite Rising began, thrusting the clans into war. In Season One, they chose each other over their families, but now they must prioritize their clan loyalties, as Brian fulfils his obligation to fight and Ellen seeks to make things right with her family.

As Season Two unfolds, the two young couples will be tested and separated once again by forces beyond their control, as every clan chooses a side in the rebellion.

In addition to Irvine, Corfield, Roy, and Slater, Outlander: Blood of my Blood stars 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.

Matthew B. Roberts serves as the showrunner for both Outlander and Outlander: Blood of my Blood. Roberts, alongside Ronald D. Moore, Maril Davis, Toni Graphia, Luke Schelhaas, Michael Wilson, Jim Kohlberg and Luke Parker Bowles serve as executive producers. Outlander: Blood of my Blood is produced by Sony Pictures Television. Outlander: Blood of my Blood builds upon the world of the long-running hit series Outlander, based on Diana Gabaldon’s international best-selling books which have sold an estimated 50 million copies worldwide.
