Sam Heughan Says 'Outlander' Season 4 Will Include 'Surprises' For Fans!

Sam Heughan and his Outlander co-stars Sophie Skelton and Richard Rankin stopped by the BUILD Studios on Wednesday (October 31) to dish all about their characters’ new journeys in America in their upcoming fourth season!

Sam, 38, spilled some details on Claire (Caitriona Balfe) and Jamie’s new life and home: “They’re really trying to establish themselves and find their way back to Scotland, but very quickly they realize that America is going to become their new home.”

“It’s a land of opportunity but it’s also a land that has a lot of issues and there’s some surprises there as well,” Sam continued. “This season is about home for Jamie and Claire certainly and about them laying foundations for years to come.”

On staying true to the books: “We do stick to the books as much as we can but I think what’s great about this season is that we do,” Sam said. “There’s some surprises in there for fans of the books, which I think is great because you guys know the books – but there’s some things in there that also are part of (author) Diana Gabaldon‘s world but you weren’t expecting.”
