"Damian Lewis has revealed that the writers of Homeland devise the show as they go along. The actor - who plays Nicholas Brody on the hit drama - told The Hollywood Reporter that the writing team often don&amp;#039;t know where the story is going.  &amp;quot;They&amp;#039;re phenomenally talented and collaborative, as long as they know what the story is going to do,&amp;quot; he explained. &amp;quot;Often they don&amp;#039;t.&amp;quot; He recalled: &amp;quot;There was one incident toward the end of the first season, they didn&amp;#039;t happen on it. I think genuinely they didn&amp;#039;t happen on it in the writers&amp;#039; room until about episode five or six, and then they came to me and said, &amp;#039;We think this happens&amp;#039;. &amp;quot;I was like, &amp;#039;What? What do you mean that happens? I&amp;#039;m that guy? I&amp;#039;m not that guy?&amp;#039; Then you realize you&amp;#039;re a guy that&amp;#039;s being written. So you roll with it.&amp;quot; Homeland will return to Showtime in the US on September 30. Channel 4 has picked up the rights to air season two in the UK, with a late 2012 broadcast planned. Series exec Howard Gordon recently hinted that the show&amp;#039;s second run will introduce &amp;quot;new antagonists&amp;quot;. &amp;quot;Season two is going to start about five or six months after season one ended,&amp;quot; he revealed. &amp;quot;Carrie (Claire Danes) will not be in the intelligence service, and the world will be at a boiling point.&amp;quot; &amp;gt; Homeland adds True Blood actress Valerie Cruz &amp;gt; Homeland casts Lost star Zuleikha Robinson for season two Watch Damian Lewis discuss Homeland season two with Digital Spy below:  "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
