"Outlander" Season 3 spoilers are out following the release of behind-the-scenes photos from the set of the show. Now fans know how far filming for "Outlander" Season 3 has gone.

The cast and crew of "Outlander" Season 3 are currently filming in Scotland. One of the filming locations for the third season includes a castle, which is believed to be the set piece that will represent Lallybroch.

Reports claim that filming for episodes 1 to 4 of "Outlander" Season 3 has been completed. Speaking to Variety, actress Catriona Balfe said that they are almost halfway through filming the third season. She added that she has not been filming with Sam Heughan due to their different storylines in the upcoming season. Instead, Balfe will be sharing more screen time with Tobias Menzies and Sophie Skelton in the first few episodes.

The first four episodes of the third season will likely follow Jamie's life in the 1740s and he will appear as an older person, since "Outlander" Season 3 will pick up at the height of the Battle of Culloden, just shortly after Claire travels back to the 20th century. Jamie and Jack Randall will engage in a bloody battle when fans see them again for the first time.

According to Express, "Outlander" Season 3 will show Jamie and Claire separated by time the time-travelling lady returns to the 20th century.

Interestingly, "Outlander" Season 3, which is based on Diana Gabaldon's book "Voyager," will not only focus on life in Scotland. As the name suggests, the characters will go on a voyage to other places. Balfe hinted that they will begin filming in South Africa, which will stand in for Jamaica on the show.

The third season of the hit Starz series will probably be the most intriguing and mystical of all. Aside from the time travelling element, "Voyager" actually showcases pirates and voodoo zombies-something that's never been explored in the "Outlander" series before. If these aspects ever make their way to the third installment, chances are ratings will spike up even more.

"Outlander" Season 3 has yet to receive its official release date.
