Claire Danes May Nab Lead In Showtime Pilot

Angela Chase Claire Danes is coming back to T.V.!

Sources are confirming that Claire is in talks to star in a new Showtime pilot, Homeland. From the minds of 24 comes a new government thriller about CIA case officer Carrie Anderson, who would be played by Claire, who looks into threats made by the Middle East to homeland security.

The show gets juicy as Claire’s character learns that a POW just returned from Baghdad has actually been turned and will be leading the next big terrorist attack on the country. The series would chronicle her efforts to expose the truth.

Good stuff! We always thought there should be a female equivalent to Jack Bauer! Except we bet she is going to get to see a lot more carnage, being on Showtime and all.

Think U might tune in for this?
