The End of The Forever War Is On The Horizon in 'Homeland's Final Season Trailer

The trailer for the final season of Homeland is finally out!

In the upcoming season eight, Carrie Mathison (Claire Danes) is recovering from months of brutal confinement in a Russian gulag; her body is healing, but her memory remains fractured – which is a problem for Saul (Mandy Patinkin), now National Security Advisor to the newly ascendant President Warner (Beau Bridges).

The top priority of Warner’s young administration is an end to the “forever war” in Afghanistan, and Saul has been dispatched to engage the Taliban in peace negotiations.

But Kabul teems with warlords and mercenaries, zealots and spies – and Saul needs the relationships and expertise that only his protégé can provide. Against medical advice, Saul asks Carrie to walk with him into the lion’s den – one last time.

Homeland Season 8 will premiere Sunday, February 9th, 2020 on Showtime at 9/8c.

The couple is rarely seen during official appearances together! In fact, the last photos we have of Hugh and Claire together are from back in August of 2018.

Last year, Hugh and Claire welcomed their second child – another baby boy – but they haven’t ever officially revealed the name of their son.

'Homeland' Gets New Final Season Premiere Date

Fans will have to wait a little longer than expected for the eighth and final season of Homeland.

The Showtime series – starring Claire Danes and Mandy Patinkin – won’t premiere until February 9, 2020, the network announced on Friday (August 2).

Season seven ran from February to April 2018.

Homeland is an ambitious series, especially in its final season,” Showtime entertainment president Gary Levine said on Friday at TCA (via THR). “[Showrunner] Alex [Gansa] wants to go out proudly, and he’s going to. That has involved production in multiple countries and at times in places that have some issues.”

“It just takes time,” Gary added. “There have been no missteps here; it’s been a relatively smooth process but a very ambitious production schedule that has taken more time than we thought it would. One of the things that we do at Showtime [is a strategy that] we’d rather have it good than fast.”

Production on Homeland‘s final 12 episodes of season eight is currently taking place in Morocco.

Lindsay Lohan Takes Issue with Zendaya's Met Gala 2019 Look, Publicly Shades Her on Social Media

It looks like Lindsay Lohan is publicly calling out Zendaya after her Cinderella moment at the 2019 Met Gala.

If you don’t know, Zendaya looked amazing in a custom Tommy Hilfiger look and channeled the famed Disney character. Three years ago, Claire Danes attended the Met Gala and also had a Cinderella moment in a completely different dress.

On a Disney fan Instagram account, Lindsay saw a repost of Zendaya‘s look and commented, “Claire Danes did that with @zacposen already.”

In a separate comment, Lindsay added, “@clairedanes you wore this dress so beautifully, I don’t know why someone thinks that they can be more chic. Ever.”

Claire Danes‘ husband Hugh Dancy is joining Homeland for the show’s eighth and final season!

Hugh will star as John Zabel, a savvy Washington consultant who joins the White House as a new foreign-policy advisor to the President and a formidable opponent to Saul Berenson (Mandy Patinkin).
