‘Homeland’ Season 5 Trailer Shows You Can Take Her Out of the CIA …
In the new trailer for season 5 of Showtime’s “Homeland,” Claire Danes’ Carrie Mathison states the obvious.
“Maybe I knew someday that the past would catch up with me,” she says in a promo that includes kidnappings, bombings, a cyber attack and a deeply unhinged Peter Quinn (Rupert Friend) who seems to be responsible for some of this chaos.
It also shows that Carrie still has communication with her mentor, Saul Berenson (Mandy Patinkin) despite her attempts to leave the the CIA behind her and start life over as a private citizen in Berlin. As was presented in an earlier teaser for this season, their relationship could use some therapy sessions.
Season 5 of “Homeland” is shooting in Berlin, becoming the first U.S. TV series to film in entirety in that city — an event that prompted the German capital to add $1.63 million a year to film and TV funding. New cast members for the season include Miranda Otto, Alexander Fehling and Sarah Sokolovic.
The series, which is up for five Emmy Awards, will return at 9 p.m. Oct. 4. It will be followed by the return of “The Affair” at 10 p.m.
