The time-bending series Outlander held its very first red carpet premiere in London ahead of the season six premiere on Starz March 6, which was a first for the hugely successful series.

Some of the show's loyal and vocal fans were disappointed to find out that leading lady Caitriona Balfe couldn't attend the much-anticipated event in-person, due to scheduling conflicts and becoming a first-time mom.

Balfe and her longtime on-screen love Sam Heughan, otherwise known as Claire and Jamie Fraser, joined the rest of the the main cast and producers, for the season six premiere event in Los Angeles, which included a stage panel and Q-and-A with some of those ardent Outlander fans.

She just showed up in a movie with Tom Hiddleston on the summit of Everest. The official trailer dropped — and Caitriona Balfe looks completely different from anything you've ever seen her do. Watch it before everyone starts talking about it.

Claire Fraser healed people. Rose investigates cults — and then gets pulled into one. Caitriona Balfe just signed on to the most dangerous role of her career, and the director behind it already made one of the most acclaimed shows of 2024.

She just finished 12 years of 18th-century Scotland. Her first movie put her back in a corset — but this time it's Regency England, and Daisy Edgar-Jones is her daughter. The reviews are already in. Watch the trailer.

Sam Heughan had every reason to play it safe after Outlander. A Scottish period drama. A romantic lead. A role that didn't ask him to prove anything new. He chose the exact opposite — and the reason he gives tells you everything about what twelve years as Jamie Fraser actually taught him.

Sam Heughan and Caitriona Balfe made a pact in Season 1. They've never broken it. And the specific way they kept it — in the hardest scenes of the hardest season — is the thing neither of them has explained clearly until now.

Caitriona Balfe had only been off the Outlander set for a few weeks when she walked onto the Sense and Sensibility set. She plays the mother. Daisy Edgar-Jones plays her daughter. Watch what happened when they actually met for the first time.

Diana Gabaldon didn't set out to write Outlander. She was practicing. She was writing a novel she never intended to publish, just to see if she could. And then something she wrote one afternoon changed everything — including your life, probably.
