Star World launches a brand new season of Homeland

Mumbai, Jan 12 (IBNS): The current geopolitical issues have everyone at the edge of their seats. And even as the world watches with bated breath as events unfold, the brand new season of the Emmy and Golden Globe Award winning series Homeland brings to life these very events on television.

Set to air on Star World and Star World HD from Jan 16, 2017 onwards, on the same day as the U.S., Homeland is back with season 6 as it follows Carrie Mathison’s adventures in New York City.

Season 6 picks up several months after Carrie has thwarted the terrorist attack in Berlin and has moved to New York City to provide aid to mistreated Muslims living in the U.S.

The sixth season is set during a post-election period with a woman president-elect who seduces the press, spars with the C.I.A. and stirs international political dramas before she even takes office.

While Homeland previously cooked up some fantastical terrorist plots in its far-flung locales, its homecoming has forced it to stay grounded.

“We were not going to tell a story about a terrorist attack on New York City,” said Alex Gansa, the show’s co-creator and show runner.

Claire Danes added by saying, “Carrie will always be in the middle. The pace isn’t going to get any slower; the questions aren’t going to get any simpler and the characters aren’t going to get any less complex.” 

Developed by Alex Gansa and Howard Gordon, the political thriller is based on the original Israeli series "Prisoners of War" by Gideon Raff.

The show stars Claire Danes, Rupert Friend, F. Murray Abraham, Elizabeth Marvel and Mandy Patinkin among others.

Homeland Season 6 will be aired from 16th January 2017 onwards at 9 PM, only on Star World and Star World HD
