Roughly, the series has tried to adapt one of the original books per season.
Season 8 will be book nine…
I wish we had more of book ten.
Diana Gabaldon: [And] little pieces of book 10.
Davis: I wish we had more of book ten…
I mean, I would love to finish [all the books].
I mean, whether or not all the characters survive, don’t survive in Season 8.
I would like to come back for book ten.
Certainly, the first book lays out the easiest.
So, I think it’s gotten harder actually.
And certainly this last book feels like it, it’s setting up for book 10.
So it was a harder book I thought to end on.
And I think this season is probably the greatest example of that.
The relationship is tested more than it’s been for many, maybe a couple of decades.
Claire learns a lot about herself… You know, we know that they’re together and they love each other.
And that’s the kind of interesting thing about its growing marriage.
It’s a catalyst for William.
It sort of sends him on this spiral that has all these repercussions.
So, it really is a catalyst for the explosiveness and drama of the next two seasons.
Did he or did he not make it to the time that he was supposed to?
Is he or is he not where Jemmy is it?
There’s a lot happens through his story in Season 7, Part 2.
And I think Brianna spent her whole life kind of fending for herself.
She’s always been her first and last line of defense.
I feel like we really have grown up with these individual characters.
Now, obviously, Ian is a straight character, right?
So his story has more taught me how to be butch than it has to be anything else.
But again, it just instills the confidence.
You develop these characters alongside each other, and that leads to that.
Outlanderreturns for Season 7, Part 2, on November 22.
