‘Outlander’ Wrapped: See Sam Heughan, Caitriona Balfe & More Celebrate 8 Great Seasons (PHOTOS)
The Droughtlander may not be over for fans, but the journey of filming Outlander has finally concluded for the stars who wrapped their eighth and final season of the Starz series.
The show’s official social media page unveiled the news, delivering a peek behind the scenes with cast photos and reveals. Citing a line delivered by Jamie Fraser (Sam Heughan), the farewell began with the quote, “Nothing is lost, Sassenach, only changed.”
“Today marks the final day of filming on the final season of #Outlander,” the caption read. “Words cannot express the gratitude owed to each and every hard-working cast and crew member who brought this incredible series to life and every single fan who supports it with passion, creativity, and dedication.”
While filming may have come to an end, the statement offered hope for the years to come, as it continued, “Outlander really is more than just a show, it’s a family, and while filming might be ending, there’s so much more to this journey that’s just beginning.”
In addition to the fun photos and farewell to filming, It was also noted that the clapperboards held by the cast and crew in photos reveal what they took from the set as a parting gift. Some are material items, while others are metaphorical. Of the twelve photos shared by Starz, only one didn’t reveal a takeaway and that would be Lauren Lyle and César Domboy‘s wrap photo, as the duo returned to portray Marsali and Fergus once more.
Other stars featured in the wrap lineup are leads Heughan and Caitriona Balfe, as well as Sophie Skelton, Richard Rankin, John Bell, Charles Vandervaart, David Berry, Joey Phillips, Izzy Meikle-Small, Diarmaid Murtagh, and executive producers Maril Davis and Matthew B.
