Go Away With ... Sam Heughan

Sam Heughan says that getting to film in his native Scotland is a perk of filming ?Outlanders.? (Sony Pictures Television)

Jae-Ha Kim, Tribune Content AgencyCelebrity Travel by Jae-Ha Kim

 

Before moving to London at the age of 22, Sam Heughan studied at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland. The Scottish actor has returned to his roots to portray Jamie Fraser on the hit Starz series, "Outlander," which is filmed in Scotland. Based out of Glasgow, the 37-year-old philanthropist also is the founder of My Peak Challenge (https://www.mpc2017.com), a charitable foundation that advocates for a healthy lifestyle. Fans may follow him on Twitter (https://twitter.com/samheughan) and Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/SamHeughan).

Q. If you've ever gone away for the holidays, which was the best trip?

A. I went to Thailand a couple of years ago, over Christmas and New Year. I trained Muay Thai twice a day for four hours. The rest of the time I relaxed on the beach or island hopped. Their New Year's fireworks are amazing -- and terrifying!

Q. Have you traveled to a place that stood out so much that you felt compelled to incorporate it into your work?

A. I draw on my Scottish roots and the scenery and culture every day on "Outlander." I hope my next project will use the location and imagination just as much.

Q. Where are your favorite weekend getaways?

A. Isle of Skye in Scotland. (It's) beautiful and peaceful. I would say take a ferry. See the island from the sea -- the wildlife, eagles, dolphins and whales and the jagged peaks of the mountains in the distance.

Q. What's the best meal you had during your travels?

A. I went to the oldest ramen bar in Kyoto, Japan. (There were) huge bowls of delicious bone broth, noodles, pickles and cold beer. I finished a bowl and ordered another immediately.

Q. What is your favorite vacation destination?

A. Europe -- Amsterdam and Paris.

Q. What would you recommend that people do in Amsterdam?

A. Wander the streets of Amsterdam, stay in a canal houseboat, cycle a bicycle, eat great food, tasty beer, excellent clothes shops, museums and enjoy the people. The Dutch are fun and crazy!

Q. What untapped destination should people know about?

A. I once spent a week sleeping outdoors with gauchos -- cowboys in the Andes. It was remote and magnificent.

Q. What was the first trip you took as a child?

A. First time abroad was as a teenager to Eastern Europe. (It was) a rather scary train ride to St. Petersburg (Russia). At that time, it felt very different to the United Kingdom -- like going back in time. Crossing the border felt like being in a James Bond movie.

Q. What's the most important thing you've learned from your travels?

A. Don't worry. You're never alone.

Q. What is your best vacation memory?

A. I climbed the second-highest peak -- the Petit Piton -- in Saint Lucia. I didn't stop and went as fast as possible in high humidity. It was an amazing view and remarkable climb. That afternoon on the beach, I celebrated with too many rum cocktails. The dehydration and sun made me never want to drink rum again, or climb a peak -- at least for a day or so.

Q. Where is the most romantic destination?

A. If it's the right company, anywhere.

Q. What are your favorite kinds of hotels?

A. Anywhere homey and low key. I had an amazing hotel in Zermatt (Switzerland) with a wood fire and big blankets looking out at the Matterhorn. Perfect ski location.

Q. What are your five favorite cities?

A. In no order, Cape Town, New York, Santa Monica, Montreal and Amsterdam, (which) is so great!)

Q. Where have you traveled to that most reminded you of home?

A. Canada feels familiar, like Scotland, but much bigger.

Q. Where would you like to go that you have never been to before?

A. Antarctica.

Q. When you go away, what are some of your must-have items?

A. Boringly, I always take my running shoes, a foam roller for muscle release and healthy snacks. And water, because there's never enough water on planes.

Q. What would be your dream trip?

A. Everest, but I feel it's become a little touristy and not respectful.

Q. What is your guilty pleasure when you're on the road?

A. I spend a lot of time on planes. They are where I catch up on sleep and movies I've missed.

Q. What kind of research do you do before you go away on a trip?

A. I usually look online or ask friends for recommendations. But the best way to know a city is to strap on your running shoes, go out and get lost. You'll eventually learn the city, one way or another!

‘Outlander’ Star Sam Heughan’s Guide to Scotland

 

Скрытый текст

 

Long before he played a Highland warrior in the hit Starz series Outlander, whose series finale airs on December 10, Sam Heughan was chasing adventure in the hills of his native Scotland. Growing up surrounded by some of the world’s most beautiful wilderness meant an early obsession with the outdoors.

“I was extremely lucky to grow up in such a lovely country,” said Heughan during a filming break between seasons. “Then to get to go back there and shoot our show has been an absolute dream come true. I am a country boy that has happened to become an actor, so I love getting to go for little trips off set as much as possible.”

So when Barbour was looking for a new collaborator for its latest collection, Heughan was a natural fit—given that he grew up just a stones throw from where the founder himself was raised. The actor was brought into the designing process to help tailor a line that fit not only his tastes but also the company’s age-old heritage. Men’s Journalchatted with the Scottish gentleman on advice for how to tour his home country, and if you’re in need of a proper ride for rolling landscapes you may want to look into the plans to giveaway a tricked out 1995 Land Rover Defender 90.

Where To Go

I grew up in the South West, on old castle grounds that were also a working farm. That is an amazing area, but now I live in a region near Glasgow, which is a fantastic place to visit. There are beautiful munro peaks near by. Most recently I went to Beinn na Caillich, which was a great trip. There are many great hiking trails all over, not to mention you are too far from the water, so you get all of the experiences. Loch Lomond is a lovely place to be, and not many people know that Loch Lomond, a national park, has more water in it than all of the lake in Europe put together. Then if you want to make a trip to the arts center of Edinborough, it’s not a far trip at all.

 

MJ Suggested Stay: Cameron House is just 30 minutes outside of Glasgow and sitting on Loch Lomond. Steps away from scenic hikes, there is a jetty just outside where you catch a seaplane and get a bird’s eye view of the countryside.

When To Go

“The country is beautiful year-round, but the autumn is an especially nice time to be in Scotland. The hotter days means that you can enjoy the water more, which is what I plan to do. I just bought a kayak so that I can get on the Scottish lakes. But even when it is warmer on the ground, up in the mountains there can still be snow, so it’s important to pack smartly.”

What To Pack

“Everyone knows about the cold and rain in Scotland, but until you’ve experienced it you are rarely prepared,” Heughan warned us. “That is why when we designed the capsule collection for Barbour we made sure it would be good at keeping you warm. So first off, bring a nice jacket like that, with lots of pockets and zippers for your gear. Make sure that you have a pair of boots that are good at resisting water, and keep your feet dry, because that’s where you will feel it first. Then if you want the full authentic experience, you need to bring a flask with a little whiskey in it. I always have a flask around. I am working on making my own whiskey now, so I’m looking forward to always having my own brand on hand. I like to save it and toast at the top, as a celebration for making it.”

What To Eat

“I don’t bring food with me on the hikes,” Heughan says. “I eat a big breakfast of porridge with oats, something hearty that will fuel you for the morning. Then we go exploring in the morning, and back down in time for a late lunch.”

Who To Bring

 

“These trips are always better with friends; usually I will find whoever is around and pile them in the car,” the actor told us. “For the Barbour ads I got to spend a day with their Labradors, and they were amazing companions. I would say, if you can bring a dog, do it.”

How ‘The Spy Who Dumped Me’ and ‘Outlander’ Star Sam Heughan Got Big-screen Buff

 Photographs by Ture Lillegraven

by Marjorie Korn

BEFORE WE LINK UP in New York City, Sam HeughanOpens a New Window. has already had a full day. He’d gone early to a movie special effects studio in Brooklyn, where he’d been stripped down to his briefs and had sensors placed over his body, face, and hands, which recorded his topography for hours. It’s preproduction for a just-announced movie, Bloodshot, based on the Valiant comic book. He had also squeezed in a six-mile run along the East River and planned to hit the gym before dinner.

For most actors, an exact rendering of an action hero would necessitate weeks of preparation—an austere diet, a slavish gym regimen—but Heughan is nearly as much athlete as actor. His physicality is central to the role of Jamie Fraser, the broad-chested, rakish Scottish soldier he plays on the time-travel drama Outlander on Starz. “My character is always in some scrape: fighting, horse riding, saving his wife from some sort of villain,” Heughan says. “And he takes his clothes off quite a lot, as well.”

Let’s pause for a moment. If perhaps you’ve not been introduced to Heughan, ask your wife, your mom, or your grandma’s canasta group about him, and listen to them kvell. He’s an international phenomenon. Some of his devoted fans call themselves Heughan’s Heughligans. And the romance between Fraser and the time-traveling nurse Claire, played by Golden Globe–nominated Caitriona Balfe, is so hot that their steamiest encounters show up on NSFW websites. (Don’t ask how we know this.) They shoot on location in the Scottish Highlands, which has caused a four-year bump in tourism to the country. Now Heughan is on the brink of expanding his audience from ladies of a certain age to one much, much larger.

The Spy Who Dumped Me, out August 3, is a comedy-action movie filled with explosions, car chases, and gunfights, as well as solid one-liners and plenty of improvised laughs. Heughan plays Sebastian, a high-level, covert-ops MI6 agent who gets entangled with Audrey (Mila Kunis) and Morgan (Kate McKinnon), two ordinary best friends who get caught up in an international espionage ring.

It’s far from Outlander and pure popcorn shenanigans.

‘Outlander’ Star Sam Heughan’s Guide to Scotland Opens a New Window.

THERE WAS A TIME when Heughan wasn’t so darn buff. He ran races and triathlons, trained martial arts and Muay Thai in Thailand, and did mostly body-weight workouts. It’s only been in the past few years that he started lifting seriously. “Jamie Fraser doesn’t have access to a gym,” Heughan says. “It’s his lifestyle that gives him his body. He’s an outdoorsman, a fighter, and I wanted to build that sort of body.”

That meant adding in Olympic lifts in a CrossFit-like program, designed by his trainer, John Valbonesi, with the goal of adding muscle and definition while avoiding injury. The Muay Thai training helps with the authenticity of the fight scenes.

His regimen is also a survival mechanism. Outlander, which shoots in 14- to 16-hour days, generally outdoors, is dialogue heavy. He has to remember today’s lines and memorize tomorrow’s all while mastering Scotland’s cold, rocky north. “It’s a bit of a runaway train—it never stops,” Heughan says.

Today he’s traded in the tartan-clad warrior physique for a cut that’s slightly trimmer (as well as Fraser’s signature mop of curly red hair for a slicker ‘do), which helps explain why we can sit on a park bench, sipping hibiscus iced tea, largely unnoticed. Heughan’s downsizing is the result of marathon training and in the service of his latest role. A week before The Spy Who Dumped Me started shooting, director Susanna Fogel asked Heughan to lose some of the bulk. “Sebastian is a spy, and the function of a spy is to fit in, not stand out,” Heughan says. “We wanted him to look more everyday, more like the people around him. There was also a great deal of fight training and stunt work, which is a lot about flexibility.”

21 Days to Total-Body Fitness Opens a New Window.

So Heughan walked and jogged for 30 to 45 minutes every morning and evening, listening to podcasts (he’s a fan of The Tim Ferriss Show), throwing in sprints or mobility work to keep the body guessing, in whatever cities they were filming—Vienna, Amsterdam, Berlin. Kunis and McKinnon have joked that whenever they drove across a certain bridge in Budapest, where the majority of production took place, they’d inevitably see a bare-chested Heughan sprinting across it.

“It was an interesting part of training,” Heughan recalls. “It’s not always about smashing your body, but it is about consistency and getting your heart rate up.”

The movie is his first crack at comedy, and he did it alongside two veterans, as well as Gillian Anderson­­—who plays Sebastian’s boss—an actor with “gravitas.” How was he able to hold his own so well? “It’s easier being the straight man,” he replies.

For all you Heughligans out there who believe the actor is nice to a fault and a man of fine character, you’re right. He’s truly humble; you can’t pay the guy a compliment without him demurring and crediting others. And he throws himself headlong into new challenges. “Sam’s eager to learn and grow, to try new things and also to poke fun at himself, which is a rarity,” Kunis says. “He’s a really good guy who’s smart, kind, and thoughtful—who just happens to be good-looking.”

His next challenge will be getting ready for Bloodshot. “They’ve asked me to put on as much muscle as possible,” he says. In Outlander, he focused on being big and strong, but not overly chiseled—that’s all about to change. “I want the character to be very different from Jamie,” Heughan says. “I’m thinking Dolph Lundgren.”

RATHER THAN CHAT about his career, Heughan wants to talk about his nonprofit. My Peak ChallengeOpens a New Window. (MPC), which he founded in 2015, is a mix of fitness and philanthropy. It asks participants to commit to a goal—usually physical, like running a race or climbing a mountain—that they work toward for a year. Half the signup fees go to nonprofits; for 2018, they’re supporting the blood-cancer charity BloodwiseOpens a New Window., the Marie CurieOpens a New Window.foundation for people living with terminal illness, and Cahonas ScotlandOpens a New Window. for testicular-cancer awareness.

Currently some 10,000 people participate. They get daily workout videos and meal plans, participate in meet ups (sometimes with Heughan himself), and post endlessly on social media. This year the organization expects to donate more than a half-million dollars.

Heughan’s own challenge was to complete two marathons in a month. The first, a day before his 38th birthday, netted a personal record of just under 3 hours, 15 minutes, which he bested weeks later at the Edinburgh Marathon, crossing the line in 3 hours, 12 minutes.

10 Workouts That Are Better on a Beach Opens a New Window.

Part of Heughan’s two-month hiatus from filming Outlander will be spent shooting new footage for MPC in Los Angeles. There’s also a return trip to New York in late summer for more press and to attend the premiere of The Spy Who Dumped Me. Oh, and he’s got his own signature collection for the upscale Scottish outdoor clothing brand Barbour. And principal filming for Bloodshot starts soon. Despite—or because—of this explosion of activity, Heughan is still finding his sea legs. He admits, somewhat sheepishly, that for the first time in his career, he has a personal assistant. “I’m beginning to think I need to take more time for myself,” Heughan says.

But you get the sense that an army of personal assistants wouldn’t slow him down. The pace is ingrained, at least since Heughan was in his early 20s, living that hardscrabble existence of a wannabe actor in London, pinging between auditions and the kinds of crappy jobs that keep your head above water, which for him included bartending, working in an accounts firm, and delivering sandwiches via bicycle.

In 2011 he landed the lead role in a live-action show called Batman Live, a highly physical production with cables and pyrotechnics. After that, he secured Outlander. And although fans can count on seasons 5 and 6, the show won’t be his Law & Order. At some point, Heughan will move on. “I want to be a movie star—I think that’d be great fun,” Heughan says. It’s the idea of diving into one meaty role for a few months that entices him.

Heughan also wants to return to the stage. He’d like to play Romeo at Shakespeare in the Park, here in New York, or in London, before he ages out of the role. (Since he’s just south of 40, it’s only thanks to his boyish face and chiseled chin that it hasn’t happened yet.) After that, he’d like the part of Macbeth. “He is a star, an unrivaled warrior, and married to a gorgeous queen,” Heughan says. “But under the surface is a cracked mind and a broken relationship. I’d like to see it set in Hollywood or a modern dystopia.”

If such a dark and twisted role comes as a shock to the Heughligans, they should get used to the idea. “I feel like, if I put my mind to something, it happens,” Heughan says.

Sam Heughan likes to go from Jamie to James—Bond, that is  

 

By: Ruben V. Nepales - Columnist

Philippine Daily Inquirer / 12:00 AM July 22, 2018

Sam Heughan—RUBEN V. NEPALES

LOS ANGELES–“Outlander” star Sam Heughan, who admits he wants to play James Bond, gets some practice in the action-comedy “The Spy Who Dumped Me.”

Swapping his period costumes as Jamie Fraser for an elegant tuxedo, Sam looks 007-ish in his new movie, whose name is a play on the classic Bond title, “The Spy Who Loved Me.”

Playing a charming British agent named Sebastian, Sam gets entangled with two Los Angeles pals (Mila Kunis and Kate McKinnon) who are involved in a spy game.

 

Justin Theroux and Gillian Anderson also star in the espionage comedy directed by Susanna Fogel.

 

The 38-year-old heartthrob also talked about what to expect in Season 4 of “Outlander,” his popular series with Caitriona Balfe (Claire Randall) and Tobias Menzies (Jack Randall).

Excerpts from our conversation:

Can you talk about the sexiness of being a spy? Obviously, the film is a nod to past Bond movies. Or it’s probably closer to the Bourne movies, actually—the tone and the action. I’ve always wanted to play James Bond. It’s part of every British actor’s heritage.

I read a great book about someone from the MI6–his life within MI6 and what that daily life meant to him. It is a high-stakes, dangerous situation. We had to make that real in this movie for the comedy to work.

We have the first female Doctor Who (Jodie Whittaker) now. Do you think there will ever be a female Bond? I’d love to see that. I’d like the part myself (laughs) but if they are going to cast someone, let’s have a female Bond.

Do you think that’s possible? I think it’s feasible, but who knows what Eon Productions and Barbara Broccoli (Bond movie producers) want to do with it.

Who is your favorite James Bond? And if you were given the chance, how would you play him? That’s tough, but I loved Timothy Dalton because he was slightly edgy and dark.

 

Sean Connery was brilliant. I loved Roger Moore because I liked his eyebrow raise and the slight campiness of it.

But if I had to choose one, probably Timothy Dalton. His “The Living Daylights” was more edgy.

And what would I do? I want to see a Scottish Bond. I’d like to see a young Bond. Let’s see the beginnings, the origins.

Look, Bond is a bit of a dinosaur, isn’t he?

Daniel Craig started bringing emotional depth to him and maybe we could go further with that.

Anyone can do the action, and that’s a lot of fun. But he’s got to have gravitas, as well. He’s also got to have a “who is he and why is he the way he is?”

While making this movie, which scene gave you such an adrenaline rush? It’s the big action sequence in Café Sacher in Vienna, where I basically destroy the café–shooting guns and kicking some ass out.

But to be honest, there was a shot at the top of the Berlin Museum. I’m standing there in a tuxedo and we had a great crane shot. It was one of those moments where you’re like, this is a big movie, there’s a huge camera on a massive crane out there and we’ve got hundreds of extras.

It felt very Bond, very slick and expensive.

Do you think you would be a good spy? I’d be a terrible spy. First of all, they have to fit into any scenario. Spies are undercover a lot, it seems in countries with hot temperatures, in which I’m not so good with.

While you do good stunts, the women kick ass in the movie. Did you enjoy seeing that side of women? They kicked my ass (laughs). Completely. Not just Mila Kunis and Kate McKinnon, but Susanna Fogel (director), she is the kick-ass.  She wrote this terrific script with David Iserson and she really helmed the whole thing with great humor. She was always calm and in control.

This is an action-comedy. How comfortable were you doing the comedy part? I was terrified, or intimidated, shall I say.  “Outlander” is one thing and drama or theater is where I come from.

To be standing opposite Kate McKinnon from “SNL” or Mila Kunis was, from day one, kind of intimidating.

So it was a very big learning curve for me—the comedy world. There’s a way of working. They very much pitch ideas. They’re constantly changing the script. Every take would be different with those girls.

It was a lot of fun to be in that environment, which is actually more free.

Susanna created this free environment, allowing people to do what they’re good at.

The premise of the movie, also suggested in the title, is that in being a spy, it’s almost impossible to have a healthy relationship in your personal life. Do you relate to that? Sebastian probably doesn’t have much time for relationships. It’s probably his job that screwed them up. We can all probably relate to being busy. So, your personal life does get put to one side.

When you first cut your long hair short, did you feel like Samson losing his power? Oh, I’ve lost the power (laughs). Maybe. We’ve got a great wig department (in “Outlander”).

Yeah, it’s pretty much part of the character and certainly, in growing my hair, it becomes part of who Jamie is.

So, I was nervous about cutting my hair, to be honest, because it becomes a part of your brand and who you are.

Talk about that next film. It’s “Bloodshot,” which we’re shooting in South Africa. I love it there and it’s a beautiful, amazing place. And Dave Wilson, who’s directing, has been collaborative and inspiring.

We have a great cast (Vin Diesel, Toby Kebbell and Michael Sheen) as well, so it’s going to be cool.

Susanna said that the crew members had a sister, wife or girlfriend who wanted to meet you. It’s about the character. Jamie Fraser is like this unicorn of men. To be honest, that’s down to Diana Gabaldon and her writing.

How do you see yourself when you look at the mirror?  It isn’t quite so good-looking.

Let’s riff on the title. What did you learn if you have been dumped, if ever? I guess you have to grow from every relationship, don’t you?

Hopefully, you moved on from the last to find something even deeper, more rewarding and challenging.

From each relationship, we learn something, hopefully.

Can you share a story of a date that was awkward? I had a date once that I was supposed to meet outside, of all places, Burger King. I waited for four hours. I was 16. I went to her house and told her dad. I found that she had been waiting at Burger King on the other end of the street. So that didn’t go too well.

By this time, are you used to taking off your shirt for scenes? No, [I’m not]. It’s a part of the show.

“Outlander” fans are counting the days until November. What can they expect in Season 4? We’re portraying America in its infancy.  For Jamie and Claire initially, it’s pretty good. We finally get to see them together, settling down and being domestic, almost.

It’s America in its infancy, so it’s a land of immigrants. It’s interesting to see all these different cultures, in a big mishmash. Scotland is doubling as North Carolina, where we are set.

This finale is our strongest yet. It’s going to take you a few episodes to get there, but without giving away too much, we have some remarkable Native Americans.

Sam Heughan on New Projects, Social Media and How He Avoids Revealing Outlander Spoilers  

Walter Scott

Sam Heughan hits the big screen in the action-comedy The Spy Who Dumped Me (in theaters August 3).The Scottish Outlander TV star, 38, plays Sebastian, a British secret agent who pops up to help two best friends (Mila Kunis and Kate McKinnon). They’re embroiled in an international spy romp when an ex-boyfriend (Justin Theroux) arrives at their L.A. apartment with a team of assassins on his trail.

What about The Spy Who Dumped Me hooked you?
As soon as I read the script, I laughed out loud. Then when I found out that both Mila and Kate were attached, I couldn’t believe it.

Tell a bit about Sebastian.
He’s one of the good guys—or is he? That whole spy world is very shady. I read some great autobiographies about agents, especially MI5, and how they’re always undercover.

Outlander is heavy on action. Did Spy make you realize you’re a natural for comedy?
I don’t think I’m funny at all, so it was quite intimidating. Outlander is this heavy drama in which we stick to the script and there’s very little opportunity to ad-lib. Whereas on day one of the movie, Mila was just making up s—. It’s so creative and fast-paced. It was a great opportunity trying to keep up with those two girls.

What can fans look forward to in season four of Outlander this fall?
This season is very much about Jamie [Heughan] and Claire [Caitriona Balfe] finally finding a home, settling down and having the life they’ve always dreamt of. Jamie’s always wanted to be a laird and have a family and a place of his own. For a while he does, but, of course, being Outlander, it doesn’t last long.

What quality do you have that would make you a good spy?
Oh, wow. To be honest, as an actor, you have to assess a situation when you walk into a room. That’s what these people do. They’re always aware of the situation they’re in and what’s going on around them. I think people in everyday life, people on the street, don’t really realize what’s going on. I think spies have to have a hyperawareness. I think actors maybe have that in a certain sense. I do in a way that you sense what people are feeling or wanting. It’s just a way of judging a room, hopefully.

In what way has social media positively affected you?
Social media’s been a really great asset for me. Through the interaction with my fans, it’s helped me create My Peak Challenge, my charity fundraiser [in which participants work toward personal goals while raising money for charitable projects]. We’ve been able to do great things with that.

Did Mila Kunis and Kate McKinnon make you laugh during filming?
It’s ridiculous, to be honest. You can see from the movie that they’re like best buddies, and they were from the day they met. They hadn’t met before they did the movie and they just got each other really well. When they start riffing and ad-libbing off each other, I’m sitting there in the middle going, “What the heck?” It was fantastic, but it was perfect for the character. They’re in his world, but actually he ends up in their world.

Sebastian also looks more like you than Jamie because he’s got your natural hair color.
Oh, my God, it was so wonderful! I literally would get to be in hair and makeup for five or 10 minutes, put on a T-shirt and pair of jeans and I was ready to go to work. Whereas for Outlander, I’m in hair and makeup for an hour and a half.

Also, we filmed in some great locations. We were in Budapest, Vienna and in Amsterdam as well, so it was nice to be out of Scotland. As much as I love Scotland, it was nice to go somewhere else.

You recently wrapped up filming season four of Outlander. What element of it keeps you excited to keep going to work?
It just changes all the time. The show is incredible. We’re ending our fourth season, and we’re shooting as if we were in North Carolina at the beginning of America. It’s a world with Native Americans and different factors, such as the British, and the Scottish people, who are displaced by the British arriving there. We started season one in Scotland in a castle, and we’ve since gone to Paris and Versailles, and then to the Caribbean.

Every season is different. In fact, every episode for me on Outlander is different. There’s always a challenge. It’s not like we go to work every day in a studio on the same set like a procedural. It really is very challenging.

Outlander has had to have changed your life. How so?
I’ve just come to a very settled place where I feel very fortunate. The job on Outlander is incredible and I work with an amazing team. I get to be creative every day and I also get amazing opportunities, like working on the movie with Kate and Mila. I got to learn from them. I actually have more projects coming up this year in the summer [like filming Bloodshotwith Vin Diesel]. It’s given me some great opportunities and I feel very fortunate. Hopefully, I’ll continue to grow with each project that I do.

You also have your own clothing line as part of the Barbour collection.
I’ve been collaborating with Barbour for two seasons, two years, now. It’s been amazing, something I would never have considered at all. I get to be part of this process and design my own capsule collection within Barbour. It’s a great fit. They’re a very practical, very cool, outdoors company with a great heritage and great Scottish roots. It seemed to fit really well with me and with who I am. Each spring and summer we have a collection and each autumn-winter as well. I hope people enjoy the clothing as much as we enjoy creating it.

You talked about the positive side of social media. Are there any downsides?
I have to admit, I’ve also learned when I have to step back from it. It does have its positives and negatives. I am quite a private person and I do choose what I like to share. At times it does feel a little too much. People do have access these days to too much information. But I enjoy it, I enjoy the interaction. To be honest, I wish I could do more, but there’s always constraints, as we have a lot of spoilers we’re not allowed to share, so it’s tough. We really appreciate the fans whenever they reach out to us, and likewise if we can speak with them.

The best advice you’ve ever received?
Go with your gut instinct. As an actor, you’re always relying on your instincts and your emotions, but sometimes it’s hard to navigate. There are a lot of voices out there and sometimes it’s hard to see straight. But I think your gut instinct is always the right place to go.
