IN CONVERSATION WITH
Sophie Skelton 06
I
t’s been six years since Sophie Skelton was announced as Brianna —Bree— in Outlander. Since joining Starz’s hit fantasy period drama in the second
season, her nuanced performance in the television adaptation of Diana Gabaldon’s bestselling novels captivated audiences. As the British actress told her friend Katherine McNamara, who most likely understands that feeling better than anyone, being part of a worldwide phenomenon and playing the daughter of one of the most beloved TV couples will always come with challenges. However, with Sophie’s naturally poised and laid-back disposition, it makes sense that she keeps embracing her fiery and multifaceted character without too much intimidation. “People love or hate [Brianna], or love to hate her. I’ve always really liked her.” This interview has been edited and condensed for clarity.
