Hold on to your hats, ladies and gentlemen. Outlanter Season 5 is going to see a major change from the books as Jamie Fraser will travel to the future. We know that a book adaptation can't be completely the same as the original source material. We've seen some changes here and there over the years, but Outlanter Season 5 is going to see the biggest one yet. Jamie Fraser is going to travel to the future. Yes, this is despite Diana Gabeldon routinely saying that Jamie can't travel. There are just so many fans asking for this to happen that showrunners Matt B. Roberts and Tony Grafiquantis to become a thing. We can blame a lot of fan fiction for this, which shows Jamie spending time in various points in the future, including traveling through the stones after Claire. We read some of the fan fiction out there and just thought it sounded perfect, Roberts explained to an unconfirmed source about the plans, Claire, Bree, and Roger all come from the future. Why should they have to give up their lives for Jamie? A lot of people think that a book adaptations should be exactly the same as a book, Grafia reportedly stated, but that's not the case. We want this to be different and it's time for Outlanter Season 5 to step out from the confines of the book. This is a major change to the canon in the show. Gabeldon has always said that Jamie can't travel. He doesn't have that ability, but there have been plenty of fans wishing it could happen. Sam Huen and Katrina Balfe have told unconfirmed sources that they're completely on board with this change because it's going to be exciting for the book fans to see something different. One of the most exciting things is that the storyline is also going to go back in time. The showrunners have decided to take the story back to the second season instead. Remember when Jamie put his hand on the stones and we all held our breaths to see if he'd go through them? We're going to get 20 years of Jamie and Claire raising Brianna in the 1940s 60s together. Not a fan of this idea? Don't worry. Diana Gabeldon has your back. She decided to go through the stones to the future to see just how much upper or there was and brought the proof back. Jamie won't be going to the future. It's all an April fools joke. Would you have watched Outlanter season 5 if Jamie was really going through the stones to the future?
