Outlander fans heartbroken as show makes major cast change for season 7!

2023/07/12 Report

Outlander has made some major cast changes for the upcoming seventh season of the hit Starz period drama, with several new and returning characters expected to join the show.

While fans are thrilled to see the likes of Graham McTavish and Nell Hudson reprising their roles as Dougal MacKenzie and Laoghaire Fraser, some have been left heartbroken by the recasting of Jenny Murray.

Actress Kristin Atherton will be stepping into the role of Jenny, who is the older sister of protagonist Jamie Fraser, for the new season.

She was originally played by Laura Donnelly from seasons one to three of the popular period piece.

Taking to Twitter to comment on the cast change, one fan wrote: "Jenny Murray got recast for #Outlander and while I'm happy to get more Jenny content, I'm gonna miss Laura Donnelly so hard. I hope she's busy making #TheNevers," while another added: "They recast Jenny," alongside a crying face emoji.

A third fan commented: "Guys, I'm having mixed feelings here. No #LauraDonnelly as Jenny? I don't do well with change. I'm sure it will be great no matter what. But still. My heart hurts a little. Tell me it will be ok.
