Showtime says next season of break-out hit will feature more footage from Israel, focus on international terrorism
Israel's Channel 10 Sunday showed footage of the cast filming near Jaffa and actress Claire Danes leaving a restaurant.
Patinkin is a supporter of the Israeli left that advocates a two state solution to Israeli-Palestinian conflict and an end to settlement building in the West Bank.
Patinkin said he wants his grandchildren "to be able to have Hummus with their neighbors in Hebron," a West Bank town.
"Homeland" is based on an Israeli drama, "Prisoners of War." It tells the story of an American soldier freed from captivity in Iraq and a CIA officer who suspects him of being an al-Qaeda turncoat.
