5 Key Takeaways From Newest Outlander Season 7 Sam Heughan Sneak Peek

Starz's Outlander has been less than stellar in recent years, with viewers complaining that the story lost its edge after Claire and Jamie were reunited after years apart. According to the fandom, the show began to look more like a soap opera than the time-traveling suspense fest it had always been. Fortunately, the recently released Sam Heughan photos from Season 7 seem to suggest that the show may be getting back on track now!

Here are five key takeaways from the sneak peek.

Starz refused to make Sam look older

Despite the fact that Jamie must be somewhere in his mid-50s in Season 7, Sam Heughan still looks young as hell, leading fans to believe that the 43-year-old star has some kind of magic formula to keep his boyish looks at his respectable age. And Starz seems to be totally fine with that, refusing to artificially age the actor and allowing him to show off his unwrinkled face and a 20-something charisma on the show.

The wigs keep getting better!

However, one thing that really shows the actor's age is his hair, and that's why Outlander has always featured him wearing a variety of wigs. According to the new photos, Sam's ponytail blonde wig might be the best he's ever had.

Jamie is ready for the battle

Pictures of Jamie crawling through the woods in full battle gear, wielding a rifle and pistol, prove that the Revolutionary War is finally coming to Outlander, giving fans some long-awaited action.

And it looks like Jamie will be at the forefront of the battle, striking fear into the hearts of his enemies.

Jamie might lose something this season

In one of the photos, Jamie can be seen holding his finger in a rather suggestive manner, leading fans to believe that one of the book's storylines may find its way to the screen. In the book, Jamie lost his finger in battle, and Claire did everything in her power to restore it properly. It looks like this exciting storyline will be a centerpiece of the upcoming season.

Jamie and Claire are still (sadly) in America

Ever since Jamie left Scotland for America, Outlander fans have been anxious to see him return to his homeland, calling the new storyline rather uninspired. Unfortunately, the homecoming will definitely not happen this season, as the photos prove that Jamie is still very much on American soil.

Outlander Season 7 will arrive on Starz on June 16, 2023.
