"Today marks the final day of filming on the final season of #Outlander. Words cannot express the gratitude owed to each and every hard-working cast and crew member who brought this incredible series to life and every single fan who supports it with passion, creativity, and dedication," the show's post reads. "Outlander really is more than just a show, it’s a family, and while filming might be ending, there’s so much more to this journey that’s just beginning."
