The adventures of Jamie and Claire will not be coming to an end any time soon on Starz.
The cable network announced today that it has renewed Outlander for Season 3 AND Season 4.
Starz Chief Executive Officer Chris Albrecht confirmed the news this afternoon, saying the show will still be executive produced by Ronald D. Moore and, of course, still be adapted from Diana Gabaldon’s international best-selling novels.
Season 3 will be based on the author's third book in her series, "Voyager," while the fourth season will be based on the fourth book, "Drums of Autumn."
"Outlander’ is like nothing seen before on television," Albrecht said in a statement.
"From its depiction of a truly powerful female lead character, to the devastating decimation of the Highlander way of life, to what is a rarely seen genuine and timeless love story, it is a show that not only transports the viewer, but inspires the passion and admiration of its fans.
"On this 25th anniversary of the publication of the first book in the U.S., we are thrilled and honored to be able to continue the story that began with author Diana Gabaldon, and is brought to life by the incredibly talented Ronald D. Moore.
"There are no better storytellers for Outlander than this team, both in front and behind the camera."

“Starz has been an incredible partner and has truly helped shape this into one of the most iconic premiere series on the air today.”
