Carrie Mathison may have left the CIA, but the CIA won’t leave her alone.
Homeland’s fifth season takes a two year jump from the last season, with Carrie retired from the federal government and working a new job as head of security for a German philanthropist.
The new trailer teases an action-packed season, with Carrie haunted by the ghosts of her gunslinging days in international covert affairs as she attempts to reconcile her guilt and disillusionment from putting herself in harms way while working for the CIA.
Homeland was recently nominated for the Emmy for Outstanding Drama series. The new season premieres Oct. 4 at 9 p.m. ET on Showtime.
Watch the trailer above.
