And Jamie Fraser is...

...Sam Heughan.

From the Hollywood Reporter:

Heughan will star as Jamie Fraser in the network's adaptation of Diana Gabaldon's internationally best-selling books. Starz greenlit the drama series earlier this year for a 2014 premiere. Production will begin in the fall in Scotland.

Yeah, I've still never read Outlander.

What say you: whatevs, or HERESY?
