Here's Everything You Need To Know About 'Outlander' Season 5

The fourth season of Outlander ended on a breathtaking cliffhanger no one saw coming by the fact it didn’t happen in any of Diana Gabaldon’s books. Fans currently in the midst of 'droughtlander', the dreaded time between show’s seasons, can now breathe a sigh of relief. Season 5 is on its way and giving us twelve delicious new episodes to add to our binge list.  

Here’s everything you need to know about Season 5 of Outlander.

When Will The Film Be Released?

The time-travelling drama's fourth season concluded in late January, which means we’ve been in overdrive wondering what’s in store for Claire and Jamie come season five.

While there isn't an official release date yet, producers and insiders have already spilled on what we can expect for the upcoming fifth season, as well as when and where Australian audiences can watch it.

"Fans can rest assured their beloved Claire and Jamie will be back facing new challenges, adversaries and adventures in seasons five and six as we delve into American history and continue the story of the Frasers as they settle in the New World,” said Starz President and CEO Chris Albrecht in a statement.

Like all previous seasons, season five will be released on Foxtel's Showcase channel, as well as being streamable on Netflix.

In April the Claire Fraser actress, Caitriona Balfe, posted a sneak peek of the first episode of the season on her Instagram account. The preview may be spoiler-free, but it’s left us buzzing with anticipation.

"Mums the word on what’s inside...but here it is Ep 1 Season 💥5💥," Balfe wrote in the caption of the picture, which showed her holding up a copy of the script.
