If one of the 20th century's most important cultural icons stamps her approval in silver, it's safe to say Irvine gives a hell of a performance. They met eight years ago on the set of Mamma Mia: Here We Go Again, where he played the young version of Pierce Brosnan's character. Now, he's starring as Henry Beauchamp in another beloved franchise, the Outlander prequel series Outlander: Blood of My Blood, which premiered in August on STARZ.

Those well-versed in Outlander lore may have perked up at the mention of a baby named William, since, if Brian and Ellen's story follows the path it did in Outlander, not too long from now, they'll be welcoming their first child, a boy named William. We also know from Outlander that Jamie's older brother William tragically died from smallpox when he was a young boy. If Baby Beauchamp is still in play, it seems odd that Brian and Ellen would name their son William, too.

Young Brian Fraser is the "bastard son" of Lord Lovat and his maid Davina Porter. His father is both emotionally and physically abusive, and yet, somehow, Brian has turned out sweet and thoughtful.
