Sam Heughan took a quick 30 minutes – and it sure felt like it passed in a flash – to chat with fans on Twitter this afternoon.
Q Happy anniversary being cast as JAMMF! Do you own the rights to your audition tapes? If so will you share with us OL fans?
A I actually saw them recently. Gabs sent them to me. Spooky… black hair Jamie!
Q Are there any stunt or action scenes for you in your new project? (The Spy Who Dumped Me)
A It’s an “action comedy”!!! I love stunts…
Q One word to describe Jamie in Season 3?
A He’s anyone BUT JAMMF…
Q I’m coming to ComicCon. Can you save me a seat in the panel room?
A Ask @jennadewan !? (Jenna Dewan Tatum, the moderator for the Outlander panel)
Q Is it true – did you get your hair cut?
A Maybe, maybe no. Movie magic?!
Q Will you do another Barbour event in NYC?
A Working on it! Can’t wait for you to see my Barbour collection for Autumn/Winter this year!
Q How do you spend your time on long plane flights, sleep/read/study scripts?
A Sleep. It’s a great opportunity to catch up! And maybe a wee dram…
Q Do you have anything else in the pipeline but the Spy moving going?

A Hungarian.
Q What are you craving right now?
A Sipping on an April Spritz…,mmmm
thanks to Nipuna for posting!
Q Did you actually get seasick while filming S3?
A Afraid not… But pretending to throw up raw eggs quite a few times can set someone off!
A (from Nick Rasenti) pfft he did. Ask the bucket on the ship deck, he tells a different story.
A Didn’t you play the bucket?
Q Would love to hear you narrate an audiobook! Is that something you would consider?
A Already done! @CassieClare #ShadowhunterAcademy

A She’s SO cool and funny! What a pro.
Q Turtle soup or print shop?
A Wait and see…
Q Would you ever consider an interview/experience with Bear Grylls?
A Where do I sign up?
Q Does the next Barbour campaign have pups? How have you managed not to steal one? 12/10 would dognap!
