It goes without saying that the new original starz Outlander: Blood of my blood is directly linked to the period drama Outland. The latter features Sam Heughan and Caitriona Balfe as Jamie and Claire, a couple who falls in love after Claire comes back accidentally in time during her honeymoon during the Second World War.
Outland:: Blood blood Follows a similar structure, but because it is a series of prequel, with their parents, each couple was also transported to the past of the 18th century in Scotland. Authorizing, however, we still do not know how much the two programs are directly linked, with logically, Claire could have met her parents without knowing it.
When I think of Outlander: Blood of my blood Filming, I imagine that two separate casts meet to share stories, exchange advice from the world and meticulously combing the business of life that acts. But when I ask stars Jeremy Irvine (Henry) and Hermione Corfield (Julia) what are the best advice they have obtained Outland The cast was, nothing could have prepared me for the answer. In short, my spy visions could not be more distant from the truth.
Balfe confirmed that she had told them both, but almost none of their immediate conversations really targeted. While I look forward to seeing how Outlander: Blood of my blood Tops, I have a much clearer idea of what is happening there, including exactly how good the restoration is.
Outlander: The blood of my blood did not want acting advice, but I wanted to know about catering in set
To watch
“It’s so funny because you meet other actors, and you think we would all talk about characters and stuff. We don’t do it. We just wonder if the restoration is good,” Ivine tells me. “How often do you run every day?” So especially, when I saw Caitriona, I said to myself: “What does food look like?” This is the kind of thing you will check.
This does not mean that the discussions concerned food and food only (even if they were, I would barely blame them). Playing the same characters through several deadlines is not the easiest thing to master, which means that the pair had to decide how to approach Outlander: Blood of my blood In its entirety (which also broadcasts on MGM + for those of the United Kingdom and Stan in Australia).
“It is difficult to play someone while time travels, because they are constantly leaving challenges in the period in which they are, and they must have an agency level, so they must know what they are doing,” explains Corfield. “But also, if you were really transported over time, you would be completely terrified. Probably curl up in a ball and die, obviously we cannot.”
Irvine adds: “We talked about [the time traveling part of the show] a lot. The main thing is that they must survive minuste per minute. You know, it’s not really thinking about overview. You don’t have time. You are just going: “Okay, how can I spend the next five minutes and survive to give me the best chance of coming back to this person I have just lost?” Really, it’s more a thought like that, rather than having time to have this great existential crisis. »»
However, these two have come to this conclusion, the result works. Outlander: Blood of my blood Already made magic, and in Rupaul’s words, I can’t wait to see how it goes.
