The long-awaited final season of Outlander is finally just weeks rather than months away in the 2026 TV schedule. Considering that the trailer only runs for two minutes, there's a lot to absorb from the early glimpses of Season 8. His eye is fully healed from the beating he took from Jamie last season, so it seems fans are in for a time jump. But the emotional heart of the trailer involves Jamie's apparent impending doom at King's Mountain, as foretold/recorded in Frank's book that Brianna brought back to the past with her. With so much going on and Jamie's history of thwarting death in spite of what history says, why should we be worried about him dying?
