Caitriona Balfe Cast in Starz’s Outlander

Caitriona Balfe has been cast in Starz’s new original series called Outlander. Balfe will be playing Claire Randall. The show is adapted from Diana Gabaldon’s international best-selling books and set to air in 2014. Outlander is written and produced by Ronald D. Moore from Battlestar Galactica. Outlander is an epic tale that crosses the romance, science fiction, history, and adventure genres.

Moore commented about Balfe “The casting of Claire Randall was a long and difficult one because the role is so crucial to the success of our show. Outlander is told from Claire's point of view and we experience the entire story through her eyes, so it was vital that we find exactly the right actor to play her.”
