Unfortunately for Heughan, the audience expects more from their celebrities. Nonetheless, Heughan argues, “I think an actor should disappear behind the character. You shouldn’t be like, ‘Oh, there’s Sam Heughan on stage playing a character.'”
Heughan on Playing Jamie Fraser
Heughan has been playing Jamie Fraser in Outlander nearing ten years. Heughan, who portrayed a Jamie aged twenty-five years in recent seasons, explains: “I think he’s just, he’s still the same guy, obviously.” The 41-year-old actor adds, “It’s just that he’s more grounded — sturdier. Maybe he doesn’t operate as hot. It’s an internal feeling, as opposed to doing ‘old man’ acting.”
