Showtime has officially unveiled the official trailer and premiere date for Homeland season 5.

The hit political thriller will return on 4 October, which will find Carrie Mathison working for a private security firm in Berlin.

Claire Danes also talks about her hand injury. "This is my handcuff bruise (showing her hand). This is not make up, this is very familiar homeland injury."

The official description for the show's fifth season reads as follows:

Season 5 will pick up two years after Carrie Mathison's ill-fated tenure as Islamabad station chief. Struggling to reconcile her guilt and disillusionment with years of working on the front lines in the 'war on terror,' Carrie finds herself in a self-imposed exile in Berlin, estranged from the CIA and working for a private security firm
