Showtime’s Homeland smartly moved beyond the Brody years with a string of international settings, but may be staying put once more. After a New York homecoming in Season 6, Season 7 is confirmed to move to Virginia, also announcing its return cast.
Homeland came to a quieter close than usual this year (kind of hard to top the real-life political circus), but with it, the Showtime drama seemingly said goodbye to one of its own … again. This time around, said star at least confirms the character gave their life, and reflects on the big shakeup in Season 6.
Even as Homeland largely sat out 2016, the series’ future is at least assured through Season 8; likely 2019 overall. There’s no telling what political landscape the series might have to reflect by then, but showrunner Alex Gansa thinks the next two seasons will likely prove the final, getting Carrie back to work as an Intelligence offer.
Homeland fans with Showtime subscriptions have likely checked out the Season 6 premiere, in which a certain character’s fate is rather quickly revealed. Now, ahead of the official premiere, showrunners and stars explain why [SPOILER] is still kicking, and what it means for the series overall.
Showtime had long made clear that Homeland would skew especially topical with Season 6, exploring the transition of power between an outgoing President and the new PEOTUS. Granted, that foresight gets a little awkward with the presumption of a female President-Elect, but Season 6 will nonetheless stay topical with a look at the so-called “Alt-Right,” courtesy of Dawn of the Dead alum Jake Weber.
We’ll have tragically spent the whole of 2016 Homeland-free, but consider Showtime about to make up for it. Ahead of a January 2017 premiere, take a look at the first trailer for Homeland Season 6's big move to New York City, complete with … Quinn, is that you?
Just when we’d gotten excited for Homeland Season 6 to move to New York City in the fall, Showtime has good and bad news. The sixth run of Claire Danes’ counter-terrorism thriller has been moved to 2017, though a Season 7 and 8 renewal is nearly official.
Sweet merciful death, may you never again darken TV’s door. Earlier this week we learned that Showtime’s Homeland would chronicle the tender time between presidencies during its tenure in New York, though questions loomed as to that big, bedridden cliffhanger from last year. Fear not, friends, for Homeland Season 6 will indeed have a Friend in Quinn, alive and well.
The 2015 Emmy Awards have reached their biggest award of the night, and only one can win the statue. Game of Thrones has officially taken home the statue for Outstanding Drama Series, and very surprisingly so.
