HOMELAND season five will pick up two years after Carrie Mathison’s (Danes) ill-fated tenure as Islamabad station chief. Struggling to reconcile her guilt and disillusionment with years of working on the front lines in the “war on terror,” Carrie finds herself in a self-imposed exile in Berlin, estranged from the CIA and working as the head of security for a German philanthropist.
I’m not entirely sure what’s going on in this trailer and my big take away is that, “Wow, that’s a lot of information to get in two minutes.” That being said, I’m more hopeful about this trailer than the teaser we saw a few weeks ago and with the fresh plot line, I hope that Homeland can get back on its feet.
Homeland season 5 airs October 4th at 9PM EST on Showtime.
