Ten has confirmed it will fastrack the new season of Homeland day and date with the US.
Fast-tracked just hours after its US premiere, Homeland season five will pick up two years after Carrie Mathison’s (Claire Danes) ill-fated tenure as Islamabad station chief. Struggling to reconcile her guilt and disillusionment with years of working on the frontline 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. Settled into true domesticity with her new boyfriend Jonas and her daughter Franny, situations arise that see Carrie thrust back into the world she left behind.
Filmed in Berlin, Homeland is the first American television series to be shot entirely in Germany.
