Reports have it that filming for the first two blocks of the next season was completed already. Each block consists of two episodes, which means that four episodes of “Outlander” Season 3 are already in the bag.
It was actually the same number of episodes that Diana Gabaldon has seen recently.
According to reports, the cast and crew are now starting work on the next block. With the fading away of old characters from the previous two seasons, including Black Jack Randall, new characters will be added to keep the fans engaged in the upcoming seasons of “Outlander.”
The second season “Outlander” ended when the Battle of Culloden was about to start, leaving a major cliffhanger for Season 3.
Fans would not be disappointed with the wait as producer and showrunner Ronald D. Moore has already confirmed that the first two episodes of Season 3 of “Outlander” shall feature the bloody but spectacular Battle of Culloden that has been promised by the show in Season 2.
The Battle of Culloden, based on history, is the battle which spelled the doom and complete wipeout of the Jacobites.
Moore assured that the viewers of “Outlander” shall really get some sense of what happened in that battle.
