‘Outlander’ Season 7 Opening Credits Feature Sinead O’Connor Singing “The Skye Boat Song”

An American flag waves as Outlander season seven’s opening credits begin. Starz treated fans to a brief but much-needed Droughtlander break with the unveiling of a minute and half opening credits video. Debuting on Valentine’s Day, the gorgeous video features Grammy Award winner Sinead O’Connor singing the new iteration of “The Skye Boat Song.”

The opening credits treat fans to scenes of Jamie and Claire dancing as well as a few quieter moments with the family. But war has arrived and the credits also show the American Flag waving as men engage in battle against British soldiers.

“We are honored to have Sinead O’Connor performing ‘The Skye Boat Song.’ Her rendition is, for me, a reminder of all that’s beautiful about Outlander. She is talented beyond measure. Hers is a voice of the ages — one which pierces heart and soul — and embodies the spirit of the show,” said Matthew B. Roberts, showrunner and executive producer.

Season seven stars Caitríona Balfe as Claire Fraser, Sam Heughan as Jamie Fraser, Sophie Skelton as Brianna MacKenzie, and Richard Rankin as Roger MacKenzie. John Bell returns as Ian, David Berry is back as Lord John Grey, Caitlin O’Ryan returns as Lizzie Beardsley, and Paul Gorman reprises his roles as twins Josiah and Keziah Beardsley.

Season seven newcomers include Charles Vandervaart as William Ransom, Izzy Meikle-Small as Rachel Hunter, and Joey Phillips as Denzell Hunter. In October 2022, the network confirmed series favorites Graham McTavish, Nell Hudson, Lotte Verbeek, and Steven Cree will show up as guest stars.

Matthew B. Roberts, Ronald D. Moore, Maril Davis, Toni Graphia, Luke Schelhaas, Andy Harries, Jim Kohlberg, Caitríona Balfe, and Sam Heughan serve as executive producers.

Starz has not confirmed a season seven premiere date but did announce the 16-episode season will premiere this summer. Starz also announced the series has been renewed for an eighth and final season, and the prequel series Outlander: Blood of My Blood has been greenlit.

The Season 3 Plot, Courtesy of Apple TV+:

In the 12-episode third season of Ted Lasso, the newly-promoted AFC Richmond faces ridicule as media predictions widely peg them as last in the Premier League and Nate (Mohammed), now hailed as the “wonder kid,” has gone to work for Rupert (Head) at West Ham United. In the wake of Nate’s contentious departure from Richmond, Roy Kent (Goldstein) steps up as assistant coach, alongside Beard (Hunt).

Meanwhile, while Ted (Sudeikis) deals with pressures at work, he continues to wrestle with his own personal issues back home, Rebecca (Waddingham) is focused on defeating Rupert and Keeley (Temple) navigates being the boss of her own PR agency. Things seem to be falling apart both on and off the pitch, but Team Lasso is set to give it their best shot anyway.

Fantasy Island Description, Courtesy of Fox:

A modern drama series, Fantasy Island takes place at a luxury resort, where literally any fantasy requested by guests is fulfilled, although they rarely turn out as expected. Delving into the “what if” questions – both big and small – that keep us awake at night, each episode will tell emotional, provocative stories about people who arrive with dreams and desires and depart enlightened and transformed through the magical realism of Fantasy Island.

Serving as steward of this mysterious island is Elena Roarke (Sanchez), a descendant of the iconic Mr. Roarke. Elena set aside her own ambitions, and even the love of her life, to uphold her family’s legacy. Sophisticated, insightful, and always charming, her calm exterior masks the challenges of the responsibilities she has assumed. Assisting Elena is Ruby Akuda (Barnes), a young woman with an old soul who arrives on Fantasy Island with a terminal illness, and is given a new lease on life there; and pilot Javier (Rodriquez), who also is the head of island transportation and a jack of all trades.

Ginger Gonzaga (She-Hulk: Attorney at Law) takes on the role of Helen in the series premiering on Wednesday, March 1, 2023 at 10pm ET/PT.

Joining Steve Howey as Harry and Ginger Gonzaga as Helen in season one are Erica Hernandez as Maria, Omar Miller as Gib, Mike O’Gorman as Luther, Annabella Didion as Dana, and Lucas Jaye as Jake.

The “Pilot” Plot: True Lies follows Harry Tasker (Howey), a first-class international spy for U.S. intelligence agency Omega Sector, and his wife, Helen (Gonzaga), a language professor bored with her daily routine, who makes the shocking discovery that her seemingly ordinary husband is leading an extraordinary double life.

With the secret out, Omega recruits Helen, who impresses everyone with her formidable skills (thanks to Tae Bo and yoga), and she joins Harry and his team of top-notch operatives, embarking on covert missions around the globe and an exhilarating life of danger and adventure – all while keeping their adventures a secret from their children. The renewed bond between them adds much-needed sizzle to the Taskers’ emotionally distant marriage and upends the top-secret world of Omega Sector.

But, as Harry says, if you’re going to save the world, you might as well do it for the ones you love.

And to the Critics Choice and Screen Actors Guild awards nominee, this third film is all about family. “I think thematically for us family is always the core, you know? Family and heart,” said Jordan. “You have to face your past and find out who you really are. I think it is something that we address in this movie.”

The PG-13 drama also features Tessa Thompson reprising her role as Bianca. Wood Harris, Mila Davis-Kent, Florian Munteanu, and Phylicia Rashad also star.

Keenan Coogler and Zach Baylin wrote the screenplay and Rocky‘s Sylvester Stallone, Michael B.
