Sam Heughan is set to star in a new thriller as Outlander draws to a close
The TV show will feature him cheating on his wife with the girl next door
The broadcaster’s latest addition is produced by American streaming service Starz – the media giant behind Outlander.
The Dumfries-born actor is best known for playing Highland warrior Jamie Fraser in the fantasy series.
Fans were devastated when the 41-year-old announced the Scotland-based TV drama was recently scrapped.
But now gutted fans can look forward to getting their weekly fix.
As the actor teams up with another period drama icon – Poldark’s Eleanor Tomlinson, playing the role of Evie.
Who, in the series, moves into a very posh neighbourhood with her husband.
She quickly begins an affair with hunky next-door neighbour Danny, played by Sam.
Sharing his excitement, the Scots star told the Radio Times: “I’m thrilled to be working with Eagle Eye Drama and director Dries Vos again and adding a third series with my STARZ family.
“Dries has a unique visual flair and I’m sure we’re going to make something special.”
Co-star Eleanor added: “Evie is an exciting challenge for me – a girl whose world is turned upside down as she navigates devastating trauma, which isn’t helped by unresolved issues from her past.
“We have an excellent team on board, and I am looking forward to exploring this dark and complicated world alongside Sam and our director Dries.”
The Couple Next Door is described as a “deliciously dark, psychological drama, exploring the stultifying claustrophobia of suburbia and the fallout of chasing your darkest desires”.
