Summary
- Season 2 of Outlander: Blood of My Blood has no set premiere date as of March 2026.

- Key returning cast members include Hermione Corfield and Jamie Roy.
The second season of the Outlander prequel, Blood of My Blood, is highly anticipated following the conclusion of its first season. As of March 2026, a firm release date has not been established. However, production wrapped in December, indicating a strong possibility for a 2026 debut, potentially around the holiday season. The show's renewal occurred before the initial season aired, and production pace suggests readiness.
Several cast members are slated to return for the new season, including Hermione Corfield as Julia Moriston and Jamie Roy as Brian Fraser. Notably, Brian McCardie, who played Isaac Grant, will not be seen, as his character was not recast following the actor's passing. Jhon Lumsden, portraying Malcom Grant, is also expected to exit the series.
Season 2 will pick up on the dramatic cliffhangers from the first season's finale. Ellen MacKenzie and Brian Fraser are on the run after a fatal altercation. Ellen faces difficult choices involving her brothers, Colum and Dougal, and her new sister-in-law. Meanwhile, Henry Beauchamp grapples with mental health challenges and PTSD after landing in an unexpected location.
The first season concluded with Ellen and Brian escaping after Brian killed Malcolm Grant in self-defense. This led to Dougal being forced to marry Malcolm's sister, Maura. The Beauchamp family, including Claire's younger brother William, also time-traveled back through the stones, a revelation that will likely be explored early in the second season.
