ONLINE and ONTOP #DROUGHTLANDER IS OVER! W NETWORK TO PREMIERE SEASON 3 OF OUTLANDER ON SEPTEMBER 10 AT 9 P.M. ET/PT To share this release socially visit: http://bit.ly/2t74gFs For Immediate Release TORONTO, July 13, 2017 – W Network is hitting the highlands this fall with the third season of the Golden Globe®-nominated epic love story and adventure, Outlander, premiering Sunday, September 10 at 9 p.m. ET/PT. The long-awaited series return includes 13 episodes based on Voyager, the third of eight books in Diana Gabaldon’s international best-selling Outlander series, developed for television by executive producer Ronald D. Moore (Battlestar Galactica). (L-R) Caitriona Balfe as Claire and Sam Heughan as Jamie.(Credit: Jason Bell) The third season of Outlander picks up right after Claire (Caitriona Balfe) travels through the stones to return to her life in 1948. Now pregnant with Jamie’s (Sam Heughan) child, she struggles with the fallout of her sudden reappearance and its effect on her marriage to her first husband, Frank (Tobias Menzies). Meanwhile, in the 18th century, Jamie suffers from the aftermath of his doomed last stand at the historic battle of Culloden, as well as the loss of Claire. As the years pass, Jamie and Claire attempt to make a life apart from one another, each haunted by the memory of their lost love. The budding possibility that Claire can return to Jamie in the past breathes new hope into Claire’s heart… as well as new doubt. Separated by continents and centuries, Claire and Jamie must find their way back to each other. As always, adversity, mystery, and adventure await them on the path to reunion. And the question remains: When they find each other, will they be the same people who parted at the standing stones, all those years ago? Diana Gabaldon’s eight-book Outlander series has sold more than 28 million copies worldwide and all of the books have graced the New York Times best-sellers list. The Outlander series spans the genres of history, science fiction, romance and adventure in one amazing tale. The second season of Outlander won the Critics’ Choice Award for Most Bingeworthy Show, and four People’s Choice Awards, including Favourite TV Show. Outlander is produced by Tall Ship Productions, Story Mining & Supply Company and Left Bank Pictures in association with Sony Pictures Television, and internationally distributed by Sony Pictures Television. Ronald D. Moore, Maril Davis, Matthew B. Roberts, Toni Graphia, Anne Kenney and Andy Harries serve as executive producers. - 30 - SOCIAL MEDIA LINKS: Follow W Network on Twitter @W_Network and Facebook facebook.com/wnetwork Follow Corus PR on Twitter @CorusPR #Outlander W Network is a Corus Entertainment Network.
