Exclusive First Look at Outlander Season 7 Photos

Jamie & Claire Fraser Getting a War Time Hug In

Jamie and Claire as usual making war look all cute. It’s not. As the saying goes, make love, not war. And we know they do the first. If history has shown us one thing, war does not work out well for these two. But as usual, they’re all about the love, and each other. War, shmwar. To quote Rihanna, Jamie and Claire Fraser have again “found love in a hopeless place.” A war. Why do they never learn?! War, bad. Jamie and Claire away from wars, good.

Can we talk about Claire’s headband evolution? Hello. Regular human puts on a headband: people think they’re Rocky (hi, Sly) or hiding some hairtastrophe. But Claire Fraser puts one on and is iconic. Honestly, it’s rude to the rest of us. Headband Clairehair, don’t care. Seriously, it’s a supreme look, and a slay for war time, Claire. Who is the headband coordinator on Outlander, give them an Oscar. I know it’s called hair and wardrobe, and it’s an Emmy, but nobody asked you.

And Jamie. Sir. Your focus is singular as usual. Claire and only Claire. Maybe you’re inhaling her headband hair, too? Who knows. But if this photo could talk, it would say: Stress. Love. Passion. War. Uh oh. But also perfection.

Don’t be blinded by the cuddly Fraser hug in a war field, and miss that Claire has blood on her neck. Who died and splattered their blood on her?! Call back to Claire from the very first episode of Outlander.Hello flashback. Looks like Mrs. Bug needs to run a load of laundry in the Ridge river. Lot of dry blood. That’s so Claire.

Jamie & Claire Still Hugging in the Middle of a Battlefield

Smolder, much? Okay, these two might be saying goodbye again, remember in season 5 when Jamie said bye to Claire after trying that super evil red coat on? Yeah, war. Again. Guys, see the pattern? War, bad. Let me explain, Jamie and Claire, talking to you. It’s not good. People die and you get separated for 20 years. Also your sex life died in that time too. It’s not healthy for you! Look how many tents are behind them, and everyone knows what Jamie and Claire do in tents on birthdays in the middle of war.

Jamie & Claire – Hug Interrrupted

It’s a bird, it’s a plane. It’s probably a horse. But look at these two stone cold foxes giving someone a signature smoldering look. (Or they’re super angry, and someone is about to get Jamie Fraser fileted like a fish.)

Jamie & Claire are Ready for War

Oh no, they’re mad. You should run. Especially, if you in some way harmed one of them. Because the other will slice you and then perform an autopsy on you. Time of death: You probably deserved it o’clock.

Roger & Brianna River Pregnancy Announcement

Roger (Richard Rankin) and Brianna (Sophie Skelton) are looking awfully content and cuddly in their new photo. And I spy a Roger and Bree bebé percolating in Bree’s percolator. That’s right Bree is growing a baby Broger. This is basically like their first 1700s ultrasound pic being posted on social. Let’s look a little closer. (Not that closer). Please note Roger’s hand placement. Remember when Claire was sick and almost died. (Outlander, respectfully requesting neither Jamie or Claire almost die this season). Well, when she woke up Brianna shared the news that she was preggo with Roger’s eggo. (Actually, technically Dr. Claire Fraser would correct me and say spermo). But you get it…

Brianna and Roger are just chilling by the river as one does. Now I like to think this is because in season 6 Roger rose like a phoenix from the ashes when he saved Fergus and Marsali’s son Henri-Christian, who was a wee little baby set to float down a river by Germaine and his gang of bandits. (Okay, they were kids, but super evil thing to do to set a newborn baby floating down a river). Anyway, Roger saved the day and that was the moment Roger became a Fraser. (McKenzie-Fraser, fine, you get the sentiment). This year Roger’s beard is looking good. Last year, it was big. Very big. That happy haircut Brianna gave him in the woods when they learned Jemmy was indeed Roger’s. That’s right Roger, let your kickass engineer wife cut your hair and trim that bushy beard. (Actually no, she’s got things to build, but Brianna, 10 out of 10 on that haircut).

Roger & Brianna Only Have Eyes for Each Other

Aww. This is probably the sweetest photo of Roger and Brianna, they really look happy and content. Ha, it’s Outlander, there’s probably a rabid bear about to run right through their little happy river photo shoot.

Roger Giggles in Brianna’s Ear – The Sound of Love by a River

Wait, sorry no, this is the cutest photo. Pure joy. Is this Rankin and Skelton laughing or Brianna and Roger? We’ll never know.

Roger Told a Da Joke

Sorry to the photo above, this photo actually wins. Brianna and Roger are laughing at season 4 Roger. And also about the fact that they had perfectly nice flushing toilets and chose love and family instead. But seriously Brianna, you’re an engineer, make that damn auto flushing toilet. Jamie Fraser flushing a toilet for the first time vs. Jamie Fraser eating a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Let the memes begin.

Roger is Still Laughing & Brianna is Pregnant!

This is Roger and Brianna happy at last, Jemmy running amok, and not knowing what new Outlander drama and trauma awaits them in season 7. But we know don’t we!

Denzell Hunter

Well, hello new person we don’t know at all. Please don’t bring terror to the town, like Tom Christie and his fam brought. Denzell Hunter (Joey Phllips) joins Outlander for season 7, and in this picture he is either about to make the best steak tartare the Ridge has ever tasted, or he’s like Claire and is a doctor who’s about to doctor some stuff. Anyone else sad, Denzell is not related to George Washington (who Claire and Jamie have hung out with at a party by the way). Then he would have been Denzell Washington, and all would be right on the Ridge.

Rachel Hunter

Rachel Hunter (Izzy Meikle-Small), Denzell’s sister, also comes to town this season. Let’s hope Rachel and Denzell are not like Malva and Allan Christie. Looks like Rachel is whipping up some sweet herb tea here. Willow bark? Chamomile? Something Claire teaches her? Is she Claire’s new assistant, since her last assistant ended up in the garden. RIP Malva. You had such potential and then you were mulch.

Denzell & Rachel on the Ridge

Uh oh, the Hunter siblings just read my comparison to Malva and Allan and they mad…

Denzell & Rachel Laugh While Slicing Meat

Oh phew, they understand it was a mild joke based on the PTSD viewers have from season 6, and also seasons 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5.

Rachel & Her One-Person Picnic

Rachel rocking the ol’ mortar and pestle. She and Claire will get along well. Insert Jamie asking, “Are there some wee herbs or wee beasties in there, Rachel?” Off Rachel, perplexed. The end.

Denzell Hunter in a Hat

Denzell looking like dapper detective. Off to solve the Malva murder mystery? #JusticeforClaireBear

Denzell & Rachel Hunter: Ridge Models

They’re mad again. Come on sibs, I have no idea if you’re good or bad. You seem wholesome with a side of slay. I hope the slaying is for Fraser enemies and not the Frasers. Because Jamie and Claire will cut you if you harm anyone in their pack.

Jamie in the Wild

In honor of James Alexander Malcolm McKenzie Fraser’s (JAMMF) birthday, here is Jamie just casually leaning against a tree, one hand on his gun, the other on a tree trunk. Who’s he looking at with the smoky tree wood eyes? One guess. Hey, gurl, hey Claire. Seems like Jamie was just 50 years old, and now he’s 300 something. Time flies, when your wife is a time traveler, right JAMMF?

Jamie Might Shooting Something

Jamie looks like he is really debating whether he should shoot something in the woods. Is it a rabbit, is it a moose, a Red Coat, or wait – which side are they on again? It’s hard to keep track. But look at Jamie protecting all these trees. Was Jamie Fraser a climate activist back in the 1700s? Greta Thunberg would be proud.

Crouching Jamie, Hidden JAMMF

This photo stresses me out. That’s all.

Jamie’s model shot

Jamie Fraser out here making his own calendar. Is there actual smoke behind Jamie Fraser? Yes, there is. Giving new meaning to smoke show.  

Dr. Claire Fraser

Claire is looking pretty serious in her solo woods shoot. Her hair is short, which means it’s around the time that she is thrown in the slammer. Hmmm, which means she gets out of jail? Or they let her out for a quick woodsy photo shoot. But who is she looking at? Tom Christie? Thinking, “Oh great, Tom Christie is my best chance at freedom.” Also, if Claire ever folded her arms and looked at me like this, with pure disappointment, I’d be disappointed in myself. 

Claire Waiting Patiently for Jamie to Help Her Break Out From Jail?

Balfe really knows how to rock any length hair. Give her a wig and she will own it. Claire Fraser from the 1960s hair is still the winner. For a second imagine that Jamie and Claire decided to go have a photo shoot together, and Jamie is the Instagram husband taking these pics. Then they don’t seem as stressful. “Slay, Sassenach!” (Knowing Claire and Jamie they would probably accidentally think slay meant murder with a sword or surgical knife).

Uh Oh, Claire

Run, gurl. Okay something very bad has happened. When Claire is worried, I am worried. Why is she alone in the woods having the most emo photo shoot. I do not like when Claire Fraser is alone in the woods. Where in the Jamie Fraser is everyone else?!

Ian Murray – “Must Love Dogs”

Well, hello Young Ian. If there was a dating app back in the 1700s, I think we know what his profile pic would be. Loves “long walks on the Ridge, will slay your heart with a bow and arrow, must love dogs.” If you want to roll with Ian, you gotta be down with Rollo, his wolf-dog. Ian’s transition from innocent boy who was just swimming for his Uncle and Aunt back in season 3, to bad ass bow and arrow man, is one of the best glow ups in Outlander. And he looks battle ready to go rescue his Aunty Claire with his uncle.

I wonder how much time his mohawk maintenance takes each day. Does he shave it with a giant knife every morning? Or does he wax. (Claire Fraser once waxed her…. Okay sorry, that’s his aunt. Some secrets should stay locked in the honeypot, er, I mean vault.) Tell us your hair routine, Ian. 

Ian Murray – Stone Cold Fox

Back when John Bell returned as a not so young Ian back in season 5, Balfe once said, “Who’s this stud?” And not to objectify Ian, but yes, that.

Ian Murray Looking Super Stressed in the Woods

Why is Ian in these ominous woods? Why. Everyone looks very stressed in these woods, and that is making me stressed. And I don’t need stress. Hence, why I watch Outlander.

Ian Murray – Looking for Love in All the Wrong Places

All we want is for Ian to find love in season 7. He’s got the dog, the extended family, the mohawk, the bow, arrow and axe.  He’s been a little unlucky in love. His ex-wife Emily, Malva, and I feel like if he and Lizzie were to have worked out, he would need a twin brother, because Lizzie orders a double and she’s not ashamed to admit it.

Jamie’s War Headshot

JAMMF is ready for battle. He makes war look so good, but it’s not. It’s really not and it never works out well for Jamie & Claire. Ever. Please read all of Diana’s books for proof of this. Or just read our best episodes guide.

Claire at War

Claire is in doctor-battle mode. And she looks very concerned. Who’s in her medical tent? Jamie? Claire is all of us – knowing season 7 is going to be peak stress. But who doesn’t love Jamie and Claire doing war, love and 1700s stress together? No one. But love is better than war, ask Murtagh. Too soon, I know.

JAMMF Revolutionary Calendar Picture

I’m now pretending that Claire is Jamie’s Instagram photographer and it makes this picture even more amazing. Imagine Jamie and Claire having a photoshoot on the Ridge. Twitter user TinyTunney did just that and it’s kind of accurate.

Colonel James Fraser

Is anyone else concerned that not one exclusive portrait has Jamie and Claire smiling? Am I alone here?

Claire is Tired of War – And So Are We!

That is a huge bowl of bandages and blood, and I do not like the look of it. Claire is extremely exhausted too! Look, she’s sitting down. She doesn’t have energy to stand. She is sick of war, people. She does love blood and bandages, but give her a break from the war shmwar stuff. Please.

Outlander will premiere on June 16th on Starz. And that’s only 37 days away.

Stay tuned for new exclusive photos of Outlander season 7. Maybe even later today. And you still have time to binge all 6 seasons before the premiere, so check out our all-time best Outlander episodes guide here as you watch along. Plus, you can listen to Balfe and Heughan chatting all about season 6 here. You still have time to read every single Diana Gabaldon Outlander book. There are 9 books, that’s about 1.9 kazillion pages. Two words of advice: Read. Fast. Throw on your tiny Jamie Fraser glasses and start now, but first go study these Jamie and Claire photos for 2 more hours, you know you want to.
