An Outlander prequel series is in development at Starz, a new report claims. It’s being reported that Outlander executive producer and showrunner Matthew B. Roberts will be the writer and EP of the prequel series and that a writer’s room is being formed to start scripting the series in the coming weeks. No plot details are being revealed at this early stage. Outlander creator Ronald D. Moore will also be attached to the prequel as an executive producer, alongside Maril Davis, with Sony Pictures Television handling the production.
