  • Outlander and the rest of the books should be a miniseries, there is to much in the stories to be told in a movie, they would cut a lot of important info. Anyways since I started reading the first book I cant stop and all are really great. Thanks Diana Gabaldon!!!!

  • Anna Friels is a great Claire - with Gerry as Jamie!!!

  • I'm reading first book and imagine Jamie with Butler's face and body lol.

  • I love this.....X

    I have read all her books and Gerry IS Jamie !!

  • Yep,  Gerard and Anna definitely get my vote for casting as Jamie & Claire. Perfection.

  • umm, Jamie has red hair, and Claire's is curlier than f***

    hmm

    ????

  • Grand video....Well done! And, truth to tell, no matter the age, there is no better Jamie than Gerard Butler. While a younger Jamie may be cast for earlier scenes, the bulk of the series Jamie is Gerard Butler's alone.

  • Im sorry, as much as Gerard Butler is amazing, he is too old to play Jamie. Especially in the first book. Im sorry. He's not the Jamie for me.

  • I think Gerard could pull it off - he would be a good Jamie. IF it ever gets made into a

    movie or a miniseries, i just hope they don't ruin the story by changing it and leaving stuff out.

  • Sorry, Gerard videos on Youtube was the reason i discover "Outlander" saga on first place, so Gerard Butler will always be Jamie, at least to me !!!

    Teutonlass, you've made an excellent job both by the pics you've chosen AND the great song by Lorreena Mckennit !!!

    Brava !!!

  • Thanks Margo for watching, I'm glad you liked it. For me it was the other way around, I found Gerard because I loved the Outlander series.

  • @margo3883 I've read all the books so far and I believe with my whole being that these 2 are the perfect actors to play Jamie and Claire. I have checked out many videos for this on YouTube and I still think these 2 are the best, Gerard Butler is definitely Jamie and though I don't know this actress' name, she is the perfect combination of genuine vulnerability and strength, they look great together also. I'm ready for it.

  • So, they need a tall, handsome. dark blue eyed, wide shouldered, long legged actor with a scots accent???... my vote is Gerard

  • what is this song i love it:)

  • Thanks for watching, the song is called Bonnie Portmore aka The Highlander and its sung by Loreena McKennit.

  • that was an amazing video! I loved it.

  • Loved it!!! 

  • Jamie has got red hair !!!

    has Gerald red hair ????!! NOOO !!!

    so he can`t play the role of jamie !!

  • @Breakerflare ever heard of hair dye?

  • Who is the actress who plays Claire in this trailer?

  • Her name is Anna Friels.

  • Jamie & Claire for ever!!!!

    love this video.. O.O

  • I love it!!! Thank you for sharing :D

  • this is sooo wonderful! i love it so much! 8)

  • there is going to be a movie. when no one really knows. if you google outlander movie diana gabaldon you can find the info there.

  • Just read the 8th book An Echo in the Bone, and I just loved this video!! I wish they would make a movie soon and YES Gerald would be perfect.

  • I can't believe that after all this time, Outlander STILL hasn't been made into a movie

  • possibly in 2011 IMDB

  • Loved the photo montage & music, but have to agree with Nosuchnumbernine. Diana is very specific in her many very detailed descriptions of Jamie's features & none of these, IMO, bear even the vaguest resemblance to Gerard Butler. Whilst GB is undoubtedly a handsome guy, casting him would, I think be a cheesey money making decision rather than an artistically honest choice & therefore unfaithful to the books (IMHO). Jamie is out there, we just haven't found him yet. Cool vid though! Ta.

  • Thanks for watching. There is no way that they are going to get the cast right for this movie, there is always going to be fans of the books who are going to be disppointed. In some ways I hope they don't make a movie because it will as you said be unfaithful to the books and the story deserves better than that.

  • @chicklegs11 Personally, in my personal search, I think someone's suggestion of Chris Hemsworth for Jamie is almost spot-on. Check him out and see if you agree.

  • @ticklesivory I checked him out as you suggested, but sorry I can't agree. DG describes Jamie's long nose and cat like features. This guy just seems like just another pretty boy. with a too roundish chubby cheeks & baby-face. Lovely to be sure, in any other role but for me anyway, not even close to Jamie. Sorry. :)

  • Is that Anna Friel!? Great choice for Claire, she is truly gorgeous, but I have to agree with nonesuchnumbernine, I know Jamie and Gerard Butler, however yummy, is no Jamie...

  • many of these vids are really lovely and so well done, so i don't want to be critical. but. can someone think of a more physically accurate actor for jamie? it isn't difficult to act a scottish accent if the actor is clever enough, but just because g. butler is scottish doesn't make him my favorite pick for j. maybe j's scheming uncle, but not j. just saying.

  • Gabriel Aubry as Jamie...?

  • The guy who plays Captain Winters on Band of Brothers!! check him out hes the closest i can think of

  • His name is Damian Lewis and hes a natural red head,tal land handsome

  • Great video! Diana's written an epic love story. I hope a moviw will go intp production soon!

  • hows this song called?

  • The song is Bonny Portmore aka The Highlander and its sung by Loreena McKennit.

  • thanks xx

  • yes folks Gerry is Jamie...he has the height as well...ands hes scottish...there is no one else to carry this man...

  • As gorgeous as Gerry is, he is too old to play Jamie! He's supposed to be 22 years old at the beginning of the story!

  • but only !! in the begining (2 episodes) he is 22 years old and in all other 3 - 7? he is 20 years older! i think that woud be possible to play by gerry,,,,,,,

  • Comment removed

  • There will never be a 'perfect' Jamie, it is going to be extremely hard to find someone exactly like the description in the book, finding an actor of quality to pull it off is the secret. Jamie will have to be played by two actors, a young and an old. I fear that the detail of the books will be lost in the film.

  • there is a lot of chatter about Kevin McKidd from Grey's Anatomy playing Jamie. I love Gerard also, but Jamie is *a wee bit younger*....check out Kevin!

  • gerry is jamie !!! haarfarbe und alter kann man in der filmwelt sehr gut ändern - gerard butler ist der einzig richtige... 7 Bände von 23 bis 58 ?? egal Gerry is Jamie, immer!

  • Er ist nicht der Mann der Jamie spielen sollte...es heißt nicht umsonst der rote Jamie... -.-

  • Gerard Butler doesn't look at all like Jamie. Nothing against him, but c'mon... it's Jamie! You mess that part up, and the rest of it just goes down the tubes... I second that Gabriel Aubry's face has the right look in certain poses, and also Jason Lewis. A movie is a complete waste of about 750 pages worth of manuscript... it should be a miniseries, or a series to do it a tiny bit of justice. I know I'll be sadly disappointed, but still unable to resist watching!

  • I never tire of viewing the vast individuality of talent brought to youtube. Thank you.

  • rachel mcadams? could be.. but this girl isnt the way i pictured it. claire has curly shorter hair, and i think its a bit lighter. Gerald butler looks too old, but he could do for later movies. and im glad too! stay out of holleywood, none of them could handle this!

  • I hope all this talk about a movie in 2011 is true. I don''t want to compare the two but maybe the release of "The Time Travelers Wife" made the movie execs move forward? I LOVE the first book and I am slowly working my way through The Fiery Cross. These are the best two charcters ever written. Their casting selections have to be perfect or the movie will not work.

  • I like Gerard Butler in the role of Jamie. But i won´t agree with Claire!! I would like to see Rachel Weisz as Sassenach :D

    oh, I Iove the series!!!

    love'love'love

  • Nothing against Gerard Butler but I won't watch if he's cast as Jamie either. If its to be believable the actors should all be fresh. Please continue to scour Scotland or the world if you must to get the right people. The ideal Jamie would be a Gabriel Aubry face, Jamie body and a true blue Scots brogue but perhaps I'd settle for a learned brogue if everything else is right..

  • Gabriel Aubry? Oh barf. Did you even read the book?

  • Oh barf yourself. Have you read Diana Gabaldons comments about Gabriel Aubry (which I totally agree with) - obviously you haven't!

  • GERARD BUTLER is the one person I would love to see in the role of Jamir Fraser! OMG! He better be cast!

  • Gerard Butler IS

  • if gerald butler will jamie i won´t watch this movie...

    he doesn´t fit in this role..

    claire isn´t good too..

  • The song is "Bonny Portmore"

  • I love this books! :) :) And this video! ♥ Thanks!

  • Very nice...

  • Those were good choices for Jamie and Claire, although I think the actress is young enough she might be hard to age into old Claire, and Claire is older for MOST of the series. I would be very pleased if both of the leads were unknowns, although Gerard Butler always makes me smile. I'm so afraid they're going to cast one of the two leads poorly and ruin what could be an amazing movie!

  • Thanks for leaving a ccmment. I am afraid too that they will miscast this horribly and ruin it for all the fans of the books.

  • Nigella Lawson is exactly what i think older Claire would look like.

  • This song is beautiful. Who is singing it.

  • Loreena McKennit

  • Who sings this piece of music?

    It's very lovely!

  • Have they made the series into a movie?? Please let me know I desperately want to see it!

  • There is no movie as yet, as far as I know it is still in pre production so it could still be some time before anything is actually made.

  • The last thing I read said that they hope to have it out in the spring of 2011. They are searching Scotland to find actors (pro and novice) to play some of the key parts in the story.

  • I'm glad there searching Scotland and not the Hollywood Hills. lol

  • well done to the maker of this was a beautiful well thought out script for the book, and everytime I have read this story Gerard Butler is always my choice for the part!

  • Gerard Butler? Och no. He is nae sae bonny as Sheaumais ruaidh (Red Jamie).

  • Comment removed

  • Who COULD be Jamie - we all have different hero's and ideas - he would have to be a VERY special actor - maybe Diana should choose him - did'nt she say someone like Ioan Gryffudd ????

  • Is this actually going to be made into a film?

  • Essential pictures are developing it for production. The goal is to start production next spring.

  • are they still doing this? x

  • from what I have read it's going to be made and Diana Gabaldon has her choice of a JAmie but is not allowed to make a suggestion on it apparently thats not how it works now!

  • oh, I love Outlander so much! I'm re-readiong it for the seventh time right now... I hope they do come out with a movie, but it HAS to be done right

  • Ditto 'LuvMiSa' - I can't get enough...I've never been so pulled into a book as I have with "Outlander"...I also hope and wonder if a movie will be in the making soon...This book sooooo deserves to come alive, not only in our minds, but also on screen...It would be totally grand!!!

  • Iam sooo in love with this book and with Jamie... he is such a wonderful man. He has everything a girl is dreaming for:D

    I would like to aks you guys if there is going to be a movie of "the outlander" soon??

  • Last I heard this was still being discussed with a production company. DG is adamant this is to be done right and I for one agree, wrong casting, chopping out bits of the book would disappoint so many who love this books. Problem is there are so many characters integral to the storylines and so much detail to cover.

  • I am so happy and excited they finally made the movie. The first time I read Outlander was about ten years ago. And I don't know how many times I've read it since!! I'm a huge fan of the series! Love this video!! This is how I imagined Jamie!!

    Thank you for making this!! I've waited so long!!

  • This is my all time favorite book series and your video definately captures the spirit. Your song choice of Bonny Portmore just happens to be the one I walked down the aisle to back in 1999. Lovely choice for a great video. Sure hope the movie is made one day and that the right money is spent to honor such an awesome story!

  • What happened to "Jamie the Lonely years?" I love the music to it, Somewhere by Within Tempations! What music did you use for Jamie and Claire?

  • Due to copyright issues of the music Somewhere by Within Temptation, Jamie the  Lonely Years had to be removed.

  • Loved it! Outlander is also my favorite book of all time.

    Thank you for the video.

  • Gerard Butler IS Jamie Fraser!!! He's the only one I can imagine.

  • In what date of premiere do they throw(add) it?

  • this gave me shivers, thank you!

  • Gerard Butler is NOT Jamie. I love him, but he doesn't fit this role. The music and pictures are great, but I don't see him a Jamie.

  • I agree! I love Gerard, but he is way too old to play the 23 year old Jaime. Maybe the older jaime in some of the later books but thats about it.

  • I agree!!! definately!!!

  • I met diana gabaldon. she is so nice i get to see her again on the 19th this month, at a scotish festival

  • Do you live in Arizona by any chance?

  • Ya, y

  • oh, btw, what is this song called and who does it?? its beautiful and fits with the outlander theme sooo well. amazing vid.

  • The song is Bonnie Portmore aka Highlander by Loreena McKennit

  • thank you. beautiful vid btw. im FINALLY on drums of autumn, and am soo excited for 'echo in the bone'. ^^

  • i seriously cried when you did the bone of my bone part, becuz that part in the book, no matter how many times i read it, always makes me cry. i love these books. but im only on 'drums of autumn'. diana gabaldon is an amazing writer, and im sooo excited for 'Echo in the Bone'.

  • I really like her as Claire...Maybe Gerry could be the older Jamie? He seems to wizened to be the 20-year-old virgin. But he is a favorite among us obsessed....I think it's a lovely choice!! And I love Loreena!!

  • I don't think Gerard Butler Is Jamie Fraser. He is handsome, yes, but Jamie is chiseled and Fair. With Feiry red hair and deep blue eyes. I think Gerard would make a fantastic Dougal Mackenzie.

  • hello, did you even read the books? this is not my idea of claire and jamie. wheres the heat, the sex, the passion! and not to mention the laughter.

    that is all.

  • It is Anna Friel, I believe she is currently in an American TV drama called Pushing Daisies. I would like to see Gerry do another film with her, they have great chemistry together!

  • this is a great vid. who's the actress for claire?

  • This is so lovely! You really made it work with the story. Thanks for sharing.

  • i love it! i love them both ,please keep up the work! im dying for a real movie ,have been since i read the first book at the age of 13 im 26 now and have loved jamie with a fierrrrrceness and i wanna be claire i cant wait to see more

  • I'm sick of Gerard Butler for Jamie. He is too old to play 24!

  • Wow - you made a beautiful job of the vid!!!!

  • This is so beautiful <3

  • ich lese zur zeit die bücher, bin begeisterst.

    die vidios - ich kann es nicht beschreiben- erfüllt alles

  • this is Jamie!! Gerard Butler is Jamie- no discussion any more.

  • Not having these books made into movies, these videos are the next best thing!  Love everyone's imaginations at work. Had a hard time wrapping my mind around Gerard as Jamie, but it's slowly growing on me.

  • a super song

  • I am constantly amazed at the devotion you people have - creating wonderful stuff like this and then giving it to me for free so My day is so much better!

    Thank you!

  • The song is called Bonny Portmore aka Highlander unsure of which cd.

  • Lovely video, what is the name of this

    song of Loreena McKennitt and which cd?

  • Yes, I believe !!!I think it is really possible !!! I am chronically ill of Gerry

  • dont you think gerard butler is too old to play jamie? Jamie is kinda young, you know

  • Jamie is only young in the first two books for the rest of the story he is in his forties.

  • Wow!! More, More, More!!

  • AWE-SOME!!!!!! One of the best!!! haunting music...really nice to see and wish it was a whole, full-length movie!!!!!

  • beautiful, just this,

    TKS

  • Wow! Wish this were a movie with G. Butler, now I want to read the books!! Haunting music, very well done. Thank you~

  • Could only watch half of your great video as I am still reading the second book, but this is fantatstic! I so enjoy seeing these characters come to life. Thanks!

  • Oh My I just love Historical Romances filled with chivalry, valor(sp), Honor and LOVE. I Have to read this book and "THINK OF HIM FONDLY" lol Gerry that is. I absolutely love him he is freaking awesome!!

    Thank You for making this vid I love it! Which movies did you get the clips from I recognized timeline but what else. Thanks

  • Thank you I enjoyed making it. Beowulf & Grendel was the other one. Fond of Gerry is putting it mildly from my point of view. Cheers

  • There is also a couple of pics from Attila the Hun

  • Thanks! I watched Attila the other Day.. Can I play one of the Wives PLEASE!!lol

  • OMG thank you! MORE!!

  • This is great!

  • This is a wonderful video. I loved seeing faces that go with the names.  I will have something to daydream about. Thanks!!

  • Your welcome

  • This is a really, really wonderful video!!! Thanks for this!! Helps keep the story alive and real for us Outlander fans!!!

  • its a very good video

  • The video and music gave me goose bumps! I love Jamie and Claire's story.

  • Thanks waytohard. Look for the next instalment called Jamie Fraser the lonely years.

  • wow! Gorgeous video! You did great! (:

  • How Lovely....these two look very good together. Beautiful Celtic song adds to the

    romance and drama of the story.A big OUTLANDER

    clap for your wonderful vision of this book.

  • Thankyou airedalebuster. I am so in love with these books and Jamie well what can I say I wish he was real!!
