"Outlander" season 2 has yet to end, but fans of the series are already looking forward to its next installment. Recent reports about the upcoming episodes claim that season 3 will air earlier than expected.

While season 2 is just about to end this week, rumor has it that the "Outlander" team has already started filming for the next season. In fact, one report recently claimed that Sam Heughan and Caitriona Balfe were spotted filming some scenes in the U.S. with some cameramen.

Nobody can tell whether the filming was really for "Outlander" season 3, since season 3 producer Rom Moore revealed previously that the cast of the series will start filming in early fall or late summer. While the reports remain unconfirmed, fans of the series are positive that season 3 is set to throw a curve ball at viewers with its unexpected twists.

In a previous interview, Moore revealed that the lead stars of the series will film most of their scenes in Scotland and Paris.

Some reports also say that Caitriona Balfe is set to leave Sam Heughan next season, so she could focus more on "Money Monster," which she will film alongside director Jodie Foster and actress Julia Roberts. Since the news broke out, fans have speculated that the actress will leave the show to Sam Heughan. Speculations about her departure also stem from the claims of Duncan LaCroix, who revealed that Caitriona will have her most emotional scene in the season 2 finale.

Expected to premiere in January 2017, "Outlander" season 3 will follow the story of Diana Gabaldon's "Voyager."
