Production
The series was renewed for a seventh and eighth season in August 2016.[21] For this season, Maury Sterling, Jake Weber and Linus Roache were promoted to series regulars; Sterling has been recurring since the first season, while Weber and Roache both first appeared in the sixth season.[2] The seventh season began production on September 11, 2017, filming in Richmond, Virginia.[22][23] Filming wrapped in Budapest, Hungary on March 29, 2018.[24]
The writers initially planned for the series' seventh and eighth seasons to comprise a two-season arc, but current events surrounding the U.S. government convinced them to instead continue the arc from Season 6 into Season 7. Showrunner Alex Gansa said "Given the swirl of news about the Administration’s war with its own intelligence community, “It was just hard not to do it. It was hard to say ‘OK, let’s go tell a story in Paris. Let’s go tell a story in South America.’ Something very significant is happening in all our lives right now”.[25]
Reception
The seventh season of Homeland has received generally positive reviews from critics. On Metacritic, the season (based on the first episode only) has a score of 65 out of 100 based on 6 reviews.[26] On Rotten Tomatoes, it has an approval rating of 78% with an average rating of 6.45 out of 10 based on 8 reviews.[27]
