“Yeah, actually shut,” Phillips agrees, taking a look at his costar. “Denzell has an actual urge to hitch the Continental Military and function a surgeon as a result of he believes that liberty is a present from god. And in order that then begins their journey as Rachel comes with me.”
“She’s a bit extra conflicted although,” Miekle-Small factors out of her character Rachel. “She simply has to go. she’s like, ‘Properly I’ve to go together with him ’trigger I’ve nowhere else to go.’”
Denzell and Rachel are characters plucked from the pages of Diana Gabaldon’s books on which the Starz adaptation of Outlander relies. Solely time will inform how their story ties into Claire (Caitriona Balfe) and Jamie’s (Sam Heughan), however keep tuned for extra first appears.
