ABOUT “OUTLANDER” SEASON FIVE

Premiering on Sunday, February 16 at 8:00pm ET/PT, the forthcoming 12-episode fifth season is based on material from Diana Gabaldon’s international best-selling Outlander series.

Season Five of “Outlander” finds the Frasers fighting for their family and the home they have forged on Fraser’s Ridge. Jamie must find a way to defend all that he has created in America, and to protect those who look to him for leadership and protection – while hiding his personal relationship with Murtagh Fitzgibbons, the man whom Governor William Tryon has ordered him to hunt down and kill.

With her family together at last, Claire Fraser must use her modern medical knowledge and foresight to prevent them from being ripped apart once again. However, while focusing on protecting others, she risks losing sight of what it means to protect herself.

Meanwhile, Brianna Fraser and Roger MacKenzie have been reunited, but the spectre of Stephen Bonnet still haunts them. Roger strives to find his place – as well as Jamie’s respect – in this new and dangerous time. The Frasers must come together, navigating the many perils that they foresee – and those they can’t. 

The “Outlander” television series, executive produced by Ronald D. Moore, Maril Davis, Matthew B. Roberts, Toni Graphia, Andy Harries and Jim Kohlberg, is inspired by Gabaldon’s Outlander series that has sold an estimated 30 million copies worldwide, with all the books having graced the New York Times best-sellers list.

The “Outlander” television series has become a worldwide success with audiences, spanning the genres of history, science fiction, romance and adventure in one amazing tale.

“Outlander” is produced by Tall Ship Productions and Left Bank Pictures in association with Sony Pictures Television. “Outlander” season five is based on material from Diana Gabaldon’s international best-selling Outlander series.

ABOUT “HIGHTOWN”

Coming to STARZ this Spring, “Hightown” is set in beautiful but bleak Cape Cod and follows one woman’s journey to sobriety, overshadowed by an unfolding murder investigation. Jackie Quiñones (Monica Raymund, “Chicago Fire,” “The Good Wife”), a hard-partying National Marine Fisheries Service agent, has her free-wheeling life thrown into disarray when she discovers a body on the beach – another casualty of Cape Cod’s opioid epidemic.

To deal with the trauma, Jackie takes the first steps toward sobriety— until she becomes convinced it’s up to her to solve the murder. Now at odds with sergeant Ray Abruzzo (James Badge Dale, Only The Brave), an abrasive but effective member of the Cape Cod Interagency Narcotics Unit, Jackie starts to spiral. And she’s not alone – Ray himself crosses more lines than he can count in the name of the investigation.

The two of them, along with everyone else connected to the murder, all circle each other, and as their lives crash together, we’re reminded just how complicated – and deadly – our addictions can be. Riley Voelkel (“Roswell, New Mexico,” “The Originals”), Shane Harper (“Code Black,” “Happyland”), Amaury Nolasco (“Prison Break,” “Deception” ) and Atkins Estimond (“The Resident,” “Lodge 49”) also star.

“Hightown” is created and executive produced by Rebecca Cutter with Gary Lennon (“Power,” “Euphoria”) executive producing with Jerry Bruckheimer (Pirates of the Carribbean movie franchise, Top Gun: Maverick), Jonathan Littman (“Lucifer,” “CSI Franchise”) and KristieAnne Reed (“CSI: Cyber,” “Lucifer”) from Jerry Bruckheimer TV. Oscar® nominated director Rachel Morrison (Black Panther, Fruitvale Station) directed the first two episodes of the series.
