The world of "Outlander" has been buzzing with a significant casting change that has left fans both surprised and intrigued. Why was Graham McTavish replaced as Buck MacKenzie? The answer is as complex and fascinating as the show itself.

Graham McTavish, beloved for his portrayal of Dougal MacKenzie, made a memorable cameo as Buck MacKenzie in Season 5.

This appearance was a delightful nod to fans, intertwining McTavish's dual roles within the series. However, as production ramped up for Season 7, a new face took on the role of Buck, stirring a mix of curiosity and concern among the show's dedicated viewers.

One of the primary reasons for this recasting revolves around McTavish's increasingly hectic schedule.
