Meanwhile, showrunner Ronald D. Moore shared in an interview with Deadline that season 4 will be centered on the early years of America because Jamie and Claire washed up on the shore of soon-to-be Georgia.
"It really does shift the whole foundation of the show to the American colonies. That will be sort of the primary story going forward for the rest of the show because that's where the rest of the books took place," Moore explained.
But fans shouldn't worry, season 4 will still feature its roots in Scotland.
"It's not going to completely abandon like Lallybroch and Inverness and some of the stories back there, but you know the balance of the story and the weight of the story is definitely going to be in America from now on," Moore added.
"Outlander" season 4 returns in 2018 on Starz.
