Outlander Exclusive: Here's What REALLY Happened During Claire's Scene With That Snake

One of the things about Outlander that keeps fans coming back for more — besides the excellent storytelling, shocking twists, and stunning array of costumes — is undoubtedly the intense chemistry between costars Caitriona Balfe and Sam Heughan. The pair have played time-travelling soulmates Claire and Jamie Fraser since the show's premiere in 2014, but what if Starz brought in a new leading man for Balfe? And what if he were covered head to toe in scales, lived in the jungle, and was named Scar? Would you be down with that?

In this exclusive clip from season three, we get a behind-the-scenes look at what really happened during the scene when Claire wakes up to find a massive snake slithering across her. According to the actress, the scene was "very interesting" because "you don't realise how long it takes a snake to go the entire way across you." Admittedly, that's not something we ever want to find out, but if you're interested, check out the cute (and moderately anxiety-inducing) clip above!

Outlander season three arrives on Blu-ray™, DVD, and Digital on April 10.
