Homeland Season 4 Cast, News, and Rumors: Carrie is Pregnant, Chooses Her Team
Wasn't season 3 of Homeland great? Who would've expected the shocking final episode? Unfortunately the season finale means no new episodes until the fourth season drops next year. Queue up those DVRs, head to Red Box or get yourselves a Netflix subscription and watch the show all over again. The one good thing about the lengthy break between seasons 3 and 4 is that fans can debate about cast changes, plot points and other sorts of rumors. What can Homeland fans expect from season 4?
A new Carrie
Carrie is expecting a child. Two big questions arise from this development. One: Who is the father? Two: Will she keep the baby or give it up? She will be under a ton of pressure now that she has been named the youngest station chief in CIA history. People will want to see her fail because of this and the fact that she is a woman.
Destination Istanbul?
Carrie is heading to Istanbul, Turkey for the foreseeable future. Could she utilize Saul's services as a government contractor now? Perhaps we will see the recently fired CIA Middle-East Division Chief more often than not. Currently he is in the States, no doubt bitter about his exit.
Who will comprise Carrie's team?
Since Carrie now calls the shots -- at least when it comes to Istanbul -- who will she choose to join her? Peter Quinn is a top candidate. His personality is similar to Nicholas Brody's. Quinn isn't as rigid as Carrie is when it comes to right and wrong. He realizes that international relations and espionage are murky areas. He sees that the world is full of nuance and irony. He is also an elite black-ops agent whose various skills could be very valuable. Other candidates include Fara, Virgil and Max.
Fara's addition to the team makes perfect sense as she is a Muslim CIA Analyst and Istanbul is a predominantly Muslim city. Virgil and Max are fan favorites and their surveillance skills would be a big help to Carrie. Plus, she knows that she can trust the siblings. After all, they helped keep track of Brody all these years.
