No! The link is blocked at work. What is the guy's name so I can google him?
I have been saying for a while, I think the powers that be at Starz were holding off on announcing the casting of Roger and Brianna so they can make a huge announcement at San Diego Comic Con. And now with the con to end all cons within reach (it begins previews on the 8th of July) it looks as though there is a small leak in the Starz ship.
Little birdies have been saying around the net that we may already know who Roger is! And also, we may have known for a while since this theory first popped up back in November.
Introducing (maybe); Irish after Kevin Ryan!
As you can see, he plays the guitar, so that’s a super good sign! A quick search of his imdb says that turned down a career in music, singing and playing his guitar (as well as dancing, whhaaaaa?!?!) to continue his pursuit of acting.
He may be a little familiar to some. He had major roles in BBCA’s hugely successful show Copper, as well as in the super weird NBC John Malkovich vehicle, Crossbones.

Anyways, he recently said on his own Twitter that he has a huge announcement that he will be making soon (that has been deleted), and was recently followed by the official Outlander Twitter account (also undone). Could I be reading too much into it? Maybe, but when a dark and beautiful, as well as incredibly musically inclined actor, suddenly is followed by the official page, it might be worth look into! I will update as information trickles out! Even if he is only 5’11”, but at this point, I completely trust their ability to cast! ?
also, I THINK think I might know who Brianna is!!!! Shhhhhhhh….
UPDATE:
Listen! I know this is a huge deal, but whoever I think it is, it is wildly, incredibly speculative, and I don’t think I should say anything else until I have a few more crumbs to go on… ?
No, they're each dating other people now. Although I will never desist in my belief that they totally hooked up early on (see: pics of them from last year's SDCC and others where Cait is hanging all over him and Sam is making googly eyes).
He's pretty. Not what I pictured, but pretty. I also think Sam and Cait definitely had something going early on. Didn't realize they were dating other people now.
I'm just pained thinking that if they haven't finished casting yet, it will be approximately ONE MILLION YEARS before the second season airs.
One of two options they have casted them and are filming but the info is embargoed Or they will film that chunk at the end of filming and edit it in as appropriate. Either would work with an April 2016 airing and the current filming schedule.

Oh yeah, they've totally had them cast and had the info on lockdown for months. I mean, the scripts and shooting schedule are all blocked out and they started shooting last month. It would screw them up if they weren't cast yet.
