The storyline isn't what is catching the attention of viewers though; it's the attempt of an Irish accent from Emily Blunt.
Emily stars as Rosemary Muldoon, who falls in love with Jamie’s character Anthony Reilly before they get caught up in a dispute over farmland.
The trailer dropped yesterday on social media with many coming out to speak about Blunt's accent.
One big surprise for viewers was the decision by Dornan to change his already-existing Irish accent to that of a more stereotypical one.
One user took to Twitter to say "I kinda feel that after more than 3 years living in Ireland I can pull a better Irish accent than that" whilst many more have gone down the meme route.
Even Dublin Airport has chimed in on the new trailer, sub-tweeting a Foils, Arms and Hogs sketch taking a dig at the trailer.
Top o' the mornin' to ye. We tink we might have dishcovered de source mahterial for dat #WildMountainThyme fillum. (Minus the Anglo-Irish back story obviously.)
