Sam Heughan has admitted he has read fan fiction relating to his Outlander character online and the Scottish star says its usually quite explicit. The former Edinburgh resident who plays Jamie Fraser in the hit time-travelling drama series was asked the question in a new interview with men's luxury lifestyle magazine Square Mile.
The 42 year old star admitted he has read fan fiction saying: I may have seen some. When someones said Oh my God, you have to read this.They are very creative. Very good imagination. Usually quite explicit as well.From what I remember its usually Jamie Fraser doing very physical things to his wife.The fans are very imaginative. They go into great, great detail. They write scenes for us the way they think things should have been shot or made. I always find that quite fascinating. Elsewhere in the interview Heughan opened up about what he’ll miss most when Outlander finally comes to an end.
The Balmaclellan-born star admitted it’s something he's been thinking a lot about recently, with rumours Outlander’s seventh season, which is set to air in May 2023, could be the last.Earlier this year, Heughan talked about the possibility of his character being killed off in Outlander – and he admitted it may not be long in coming.In an interview with Gold Derby, he said: “I think about his mortality. I think Jamie thinks about that a lot more now.He’s not worried about dying, but I think it’s the consequences of dying.”
Fraser has cheated death several times since the beginning of the series, and Heughan reckons his character has used seven of his nine livesHeughan said: “We talk about Jamie’s nine lives… I think he’s had about seven or six of them.Each time it costs him more, you know? It’s an interesting one because I think it’s in the scripts but I think it’s [also] in Diana’s books.Earlier this year, the prequel Outlander series was announced – and Starz has since confirmed it will be called Blood Of My Blood and will follow the love story of Jamie Fraser’s parents.Since then, Heughan has said his version of Jamie won’t be making an appearance in the series, telling his legions of fans: “All I can tell you is I’m not in it, as Jamie’s not in it!”
