Outlander, Season 8 Premiere, Friday, March 6, Starz
Caitriona Balfe
Outlander‘s leading lady already has three big films on the horizon, kicking off with Sense and Sensibility later in 2026, in which she’ll feature as Mrs. Dashwood, alongside a cast that includes Daisy Edgar-Jones, Fiona Shaw, and George MacKay. Balfe is also set to star in Tenzing, a film chronicling the story of climber Edmund Hillary (Tom Hiddleston), the first person to reach the summit of Mount Everest; she’ll play Jill Henderson. Meanwhile, Balfe’s third big project on the horizon includes Andrew Haigh’s (All of Us Strangers) new movie, A Long Winter, which also stars Ebon Moss-Bachrach, Manuel Garcia-Rulfo, Kit Connor, D’Pharaoh Woon-A-Tai, and Fred Hechinger, among others.
Sam Heughan
While he’ll always be Jamie Fraser in our eyes, Sam Heughan’s tackling a couple of new projects that are sure to excite fans. Heughan’s latest TV gig has been locked in as it was reported the actor would play a role in Embassy, a forthcoming geo-political drama co-starring Anna Kendrick and J.K. Simmons.
Sophie Skelton
Sophie Skelton may have played Jamie and Claire’s daughter Brianna for several seasons on Outlander, but she’s tapping into the country music scene for the forthcoming film I Can Only Imagine 2. Technically set to arrive ahead of Outlander‘s final season, the film follows Bart Millard (John Michael Finley), the lead singer of MercyMe, as he faces a personal crisis amid career success. Skelton is set to play a character named Shannon in the film alongside an ensemble that includes Dennis Quaid, Arielle Kebbel, Milo Ventimiglia, Trace Adkins, and Joshua Bassett.
Richard Rankin
Richard Rankin, who is best known for playing Roger MacKenzie in Outlander, already has two big TV projects lined up, including PBS’s The Forsytes and Steven Moffat‘s Number 10. While The Forsytes is slated to arrive in March 2026, Number 10‘s debut is still unknown. And for those who may have missed it, Rankin also appeared in 2025’s Death by Lightning as Alexander Graham Bell.
Izzy Meikle-Small
Izzy Meikle-Small may have joined Outlander in its later seasons, but she’ll continue to make an impression as Ian’s (John Bell) new wife, Rachel, in the final season. Similarly, she’s set to make an impression on PBS favorite Call the Midwife, in which she’s set to feature for the upcoming 15th season.
