#claire fraser

Still in the state of emotional hangover after the finale T_T. I know there has been many changes, some important and iconic scenes didn’t make it, but it was very emotional. Cait absolutely nailed it and the Culloden scene completely compensated for the lack of the above one (at least for me).

“So then I was given an audition for a role of Claire for a book series of Outlander. Generally when you do an audition, at least when you’re starting out which is what I was doing, you’re really only given two scenes or something like that and maybe three or four sentence log line. That’s what’s kind of hard when you are auditioning in the beginning because you don’t really have a good sense of what the character is. But for this role, having been told about the book and getting to read it, all of a sudden I was privy to her internal monologue, to the whole breadth of her journey. You got the sense of just what an amazing character she was. She had this fire in her belly, she was gutsy, she was fearless. And she just had this real lust for life and this deep passion for living. And also for justice which is the stuff that at least — whether I have it in my life or not — it’s definitely the stuff I strive for.”
