Diarmaid Murtagh: Last News

Outlander fans were left on a complete cliffhanger on Friday night as Roger finally came face to face with the 'Nuckelavee' who has been watching Lallybroch for the last few episodes.

Outlander star Sam Heughan has been celebrating his birthday in style over the weekend as he turned 43 years old.

Outlander star Diarmaid Murtagh has been cast in The Tourist season two as the show began filming in Dublin this week. Diarmaid, 40, is best known for his role as Buck MacKenzie in the hit Starz franchise.

K.J. Yossman Jamie Dornan starrer “The Tourist” has gone into production on Season 2 in Dublin, Ireland with Dornan reprising his role as an amnesia-afflicted car crash victim struggling to piece together his past. Danielle Macdonald also returns for Season 2 as Helen Chambers, a probationary constable trying to help Dornan regain his memories while Greg Larsen reprises his role as Ethan Krum. Joining Dornan, Macdonald and Larsen for the second season are Conor MacNeill (“The Fall”), Olwen Fouéré (“Texas Chainsaw Massacre”), Francis Magee (“Justice League”), Mark McKenna (“Sing Street”), Diarmaid Murtagh (“Vikings”), and Nessa Matthews (“Neon”).

Outlander fans were delighted to receive an early Christmas present today when Sam Heughan confirmed that it will be returning to screens in the new year.

Outlander fans were thrilled to bits as the show announced a series of faces that would be returning for season seven but it appears that one cast member has been replaced.

Terrific news for fans of Outlander: Several favorites from seasons past will rejoin the action in the seventh season of the Starz drama that’s now filming in Scotland. Graham McTavish — who’s on HBO’s House of the Dragon — will reprise his role as Jamie’s uncle Dougal MacKenzie.
