Outlander season 5 cast: Who is in the cast of Outlander?

Outlander season four was left on a cliffhanger, as British soldiers barged into the Fraser household to give Jamie Fraser (played by Sam Heughan) an unexpected order. He was told he had to form a militia dedicated to finding and killing escaped convict Murtagh (Duncan Lacroix) but fans of the Starz and Amazon Prime show will have to wait a bit longer to find out what the Scotsman decides.

Who is in the cast of Outlander season 5?

Jamie Fraser – Sam Heughan

Starz has confirmed Jamie Fraser who won everyone’s hearts back in season one will be back for the fifth season.

Him and wife Claire are the main characters in the series and started off the story as she travelled back in time to 1743 and fell in love with him.

Talking about initially getting the part in Outlander, actor Sam Heughan told Vulture: “You’re up for so many things, and coming from those auditions and testing on other shows, I had more experience, more experience with the process.

“And maybe I was more confident. And I don’t know, something about this one just felt right.

“This part felt different. I knew this character. I felt a connection with him. I knew where he had come from.”

Besides Outlander, Heughan has been in River City and Doctors.

Josiah and Kezzie Beardsley – Paul Gorman

There will also be a few new faces on the scene in Outlander season five.

Actor Paul Gorman is going to take on the roles of twins Josiah and Kezzie Beardsley.

In the book series, Josiah and Kezzie are 14-year-old twins who live with Aaron Beardsley, a cruel man who bought them when they were little.

In The Fiery Cross, Jamie lets them both stay at the Ridge so they could become an important part of the Fraser family in season five.

This will be actor Gorman’s first television role having mainly worked in stage productions.

Fanny Beardsley – Bronwyn James

Another new face to join the drama is actress Bronwyn James who will play Fanny Beardsley.

Fanny was also bought by Aaron Beardsley but he instead decided to marry her.

Actress James played Mac in The End of the F***ing World, and also stars in Harlots, Wild Bill and The ABC Murders.

Other cast members include:

Roger – Richard Rankin

Fergus – Cesar Domboy

Lizzie – Caitlin O’Ryan

William Tryon – Tim Downie
