Outlander fans share Blood Of My Blood speculations - will there be time travel?
Outlander: Blood of My Blood will be released this coming August, with fans eagerly awaiting further updates on what to expect from the series. Outlander fans have been left thrilled, as the air date for its highly-anticipated spin off show Blood of My Blood was finally revealed. It comes as viewers are eagerly awaiting the eigthth and final series of Outlander itself. Announcing the premier date of the prequel as August 8, the official Starz social media account on Instagram wrote, "Can true love overcome rival clans? Experience Ellen MacKenzie and Brian Fraser's story in Outlander: Blood of My Blood premiering August 8 on STARZ." Fans have eagerly been keeping an eye out for updates. Taking to Reddit one fan pondered, "I'm looking forward to Blood of My Blood but I can't help wondering how they're going to bring these two stories together. "I mean, they can't leave the two couples separated by two centuries, can they? Is time travel involved? Any thoughts or speculations would be welcome." Sharing one theory, one fan said: "I think they will be two separate storylines. These couples never meet." Another noted, "I believe I saw a shot of Claire's mother time travelled into 18th century, that is probably how they would bring the two stories together." Backing up the same theory, one fan highlighted, "There was a BTS photo on IG that looked to be Claire's mom in 18th century clothing, riding in a horse and carriage sitting next to Brian. It was quickly deleted. So, there's speculation that there will be some sort of time travel in BOB. We'll know for sure this summer." "I'm not sure two separate storylines would make any sense, especially to people who are not Outlander fans. Surely there has to be a connection between the two," questioned one fan. One person reponded, "There will be parallels but they won't come together." "Hopefully they will some sort of explanation that these are Jamie's and Claire's parents. I would assume most people who will watch are Outlander fans. JMO," voiced another. In response, they said: "You're probably right but I'll bet Starz would like to have a show that stands on its own. Also, an Outlander spinoff with no spooky time-travel stuff just seems odd." One fan said: "The prequel that Diana is writing is only about Jamie's parents and the Jacobite uprising of 1715. The show runners decided to add Claire's parents." Many of the Outlander fanbase, which is based on Diana Gabaldon's original award-winning novels, are hoping the characters bring as much on-screen energy as both Claire and Jamie Fraser did, played by Sam Heughan and Catriona Balfe. "I hope they found some actors with amazing chemistry because they will live in the shadow of the original couple's chemistry. I already feel bad for the comparisons that are to come, but I am also really excited about new material," gushed one fan. One pondered, "Have they said whether this is intended to be a mini-series/one-season wonder, or if it's open-ended and might go on for multiple seasons?," as some speculated already that it could be billed for a second series before it's even hit screens.
