Starz announced today that Outlander: Blood of My Blood has been renewed for a second season. The early pickup comes over a month before the drama's August 8 premiere. Production on Season 2 begins today in Scotland on the same stages where the legacy series 'Outlander' filmed for the past 10 years.

"The passion and talent our cast and crew have poured into 'Outlander: Blood of my Blood' has been extraordinary and we're thrilled to continue these epic love stories in Season Two," said Matthew B. Roberts, showrunner and executive producer. "Just as audiences fell in love with Jamie and Claire, we hope viewers will be enamored by these new couples when they meet them this summer."

"The world of 'Outlander' has captivated audiences with its sweeping storytelling and unforgettable characters. With 'Blood of my Blood,' we've expanded the universe in a way that honors the original, while charting bold new territory," said Kathryn Busby, President of Programming, STARZ. "Fans - longtime and new - will be drawn to the powerful love stories at the heart of this next chapter, and we're proud to continue building on the franchise's legacy with Matt and our longtime-partners at Sony who have worked tirelessly to make Outlander the global phenomenon it has become."

Serving as a stand-alone prequel series set in the Outlander universe, the show is a romantic drama featuring new cast, characters, and stories, while also providing origin stories of fan-favorite characters from early seasons of Outlander that offer new perspectives. From the war-torn battlefields of WWI to the sweeping Highlands of 18th century Scotland, two new love stories filled with loyalty, passion and desire find the young couples defying the forces that seek to tear them apart.
