In Homeland, terrorist plots aren’t dismantled in 24 hours and the hero doesn’t save the day by slaughtering suspects. Ten years after the horror of 9/11, good and evil are sometimes far from black-and-white.
“This is not 24, which had a muscular response to what happened on 9/11,” says British actor Damian Lewis, who plays Sgt. Nicholas Brody, the Marine who’s become a hero after eight years of imprisonment by Al Qaeda, on the set near Charlotte. “It was a show for its time. Now we live in a world where people are divided about the best way to wage war on terror.”
