Christina Davis, president of original programming for Starz, said they’re committed to investing in unapologetic, bold premium storytelling that amplifies diverse voices and shines a spotlight on women—and that perfectly describes this series.

“The hit series Outlander embodies everything about our Take the Lead initiative including a powerful female lead character and an amazing team of storytellers,” stated Davis.

Outlander centers on a Scottish World War II military nurse, who is mysteriously swept back in time and taken back to 1743. Caitriona Balfe and Sam Heughan play lead roles in this series, while the supporting cast of the upcoming season also includes Richard Rankin, Sophie Skelton, and John Bell.

Since its premiere in 2014, Outlander was met with critical acclaim and received nominations for numerous major awards, including the Emmys and Golden Globes. The production on Season 6 kicked off earlier this year, but it still doesn’t have an official release date.

The film, a modern and original take on the period genre, will be directed by Emma Holly Jones, based on her short film which gathered over one million views on YouTube. Jones’ short film was based on a novel of the same name.

Wu will play Julie, a society lady rejected by London’s most eligible bachelor Mr. Malcolm (Dirisu), after not meeting the requirements for a bride. Due to feeling embarrassed, she and her friend Selina (Pinto) get revenge on Mr. Malcom by making him believe he’s found his match. All seems to be working until Henry (Heughan) threatens their plan by courting Selina and Lord Cassidy (Jackson-Cohen) gets involved in the scheme. Throughout it all, Mr. Malcolm wonders if he has found the perfect woman.

Wu and Pinto will executive produce with Refinery29, who the producers developed the short with.
