The newly independent cable and streaming outlet has ordered a second season of Outlander: Blood of My Blood, a prequel to its long-running drama. The renewal for the Sony Pictures TV-produced series comes about six weeks before Blood of My Blood’ s Aug. 8 series premiere; production on season two began Monday.

According to Starz, production on Season 2 of Outlander: Blood of My Blood has officially kicked off in Scotland, timed to the renewal announcement on Monday, June 23, 2025. Production is taking place on the same stages where the legacy series Outlander filmed for the past ten years.

Apparently, the show being billed as a "stand-alone prequel series" based on the love stories of Ellen MacKenzie (Harriet Slater) and Brian Fraser (Jamie Roy) in the 18th century as well as Julia Moriston (Hermione Corfield) and Henry Beauchamp (Jeremy Irvine) circa World War I doesn't mean that it'll be a one-and-done series with a single season.
