If 'Homeland' series showrunner Alex Carey is to be believed, Season 5 of the political thriller television series will focus on Carrie Mathison's (Claire Danes) future. Recently, Carey dropped hints regarding how the show will shape up when it returns for the new season on Showtime in October 2015.

Christian Post reports that in a recent interview with E! News, Carey suggested that 'Homeland' Season 5 will feature a major time jump of about two years for Carrie.

According to the award-winning series showrunner, "She's a mother, and most notably, she's not in the CIA anymore. She has a new purpose and passion and I can probably tease that that's not going to last long. She's going to have a relationship with German intelligence, and that's going to be one of the more interesting relationships this season because they are an ally, but it's a pretty rocky relationship regardless."

Meanwhile, Ausiello of TVLine also dropped several details regarding the upcoming season and they would certainly enthuse. According to the post, in 'Homeland' Season 5, fans will see Saul's (Mandy Pantinkin) return to the CIA, while Carrie will be relinquishing her post. As a result of this, the once close colleagues would develop certain distance between them. In fact, the tension between Carrie and her former mentor heightens after Saul decides to develop a new alliance with black ops expert Dar Adal. Carrie sees this as a clear betrayal.

Moreover, in Season 5, fans will see Carrie being separated from Quinn (Rupert Friend) with whom she shared a tender moment during the close of Season 4.

Meanwhile, Danes discussed about how her character will be responding to the changes in Season 5. In a recent interview, the actress shared the manner in which Carrie will have an interesting life phase in the upcoming season.

The critically acclaimed actress said, "That will be interesting, to see her in that context, to be in a relationship, to actually be committed to her child, to have friends. We really have never seen her be relatively normal and social. I mean, I'm sure that will be completely ruined two episodes in!"
