'Outlander' season 5: Fans speculate a face-off between Murtagh and Jamie in the upcoming season
Just because it is 'Droughtlander,' does not mean 'Outlander' fever has vanished. In fact, it is buzzing more than ever as fans have taken to online platforms to not only discuss the story potential of season 5 but also reminisce about season 4 and come up with their own baffling theories to navigate where the show is headed next.
Forget the books for now, because the story has already diverged from it in a rather massive way, thanks to the character of Murtagh Fitzgibbons (Duncan Lacroix), who was supposed to be dead by now but isn't. If that wasn't enough, he serves as an important arc in season 5 since season 4 concluded with Jamie Fraser being ordered by Governor Tryon to execute the prime regulator -- Murtagh Fitzgibbons aka his godfather and confidant, and now a lover to Aunt Jocasta.
