The third season of “Outlander”
The Twitter question and answer session of Sam Heughan was not intended to promote his new movie, but it was to celebrate the anniversary of him being Jamie Fraser in “Outlander.”
“I was over joyed and didn’t realise what a wonderful adventure it'd be.
So so lucky,” Heughan posted on his Twitter.

Though the 37-year-old actor did not give out many spoilers, fans who read Diana Gabaldon’s “Voyager” reportedly knew what’s coming on the third season.
The third season will kick off with Jamie Fraser (Sam Heughan) and Claire Randall (Caitriona Balfe) separated by centuries. Audiences will see what happened in the 20 years they spent apart from each other. Eventually, Claire will make her way back to 18th century and meet with Jamie, and they will head off together to Jamaica.
Heughan revealed that while Claire and his character spent several weeks on a boat, he got seasick. He also revealed that the fake vomit he did during the filming was not appealing at all.
Afraid not... But pretending to throw up raw eggs quite a few times can set someone off! #AskSam https://t.co/a9Mw6qL7OA
