The key Outlander players (time-)traveled to San Diego on Friday for Comic-Con. In Hall H, they revealed the first look at the Starz show’s eighth and final season. You can watch that just below; the new stuff starts around the 1:55 mark.

Slater noted that the scene's set-up reminded her of an iconic scene in Baz Luhrmann's film adaptation of Shakespeare's play, Romeo + Juliet. " The very first time in the barn, it reminded us all a bit of the scene in Romeo + Juliet with the fish tank. That was my first thought when I read it. It's such a beautiful scene."

Hence, there is no concrete proof that Jamie Fraser will die in Outlander Season 8. The tense teaser clips, though they are dramatic, are meant to create speculations, not to deliver guarantees. There is nothing in the books to confirm the death hypothesis, nor do the showrunners or Starz release an official declaration confirming his demise.

Outlander fans were given a surprise when the trailer for the eighth and final series of the Starz hit was shown at San Diego Comic Con. The two and a half minute teaser focussed largely on Claire and Jamie Fraser's romance from their first meeting to their wedding and their reunion after 20 years apart.

Appearing on behalf of the series were stars Sam Heughan, Sophie Skelton, Richard Rankin, and executive producers Matthew B. Roberts and Maril Davis. During the panel presentation, they presented this exciting first look at the final chapter of Claire ( Caitriona Balfe) and Jamie Fraser’s (Heughan) love story.
