I feel that I have grown so much as an actor being on 'Homeland.'

I love 'Homeland.' I think it's such a well-done, well-acted TV show.

I've only had good experiences with actors. Starring next to them and directing them, for the most part they're all inspiring, special people.

Working with big actors and realising that they were just normal people who've got an incredible talent was just a great experience.

I loved doing 'Homeland.' I loved playing Brody.

I didn't know 'Homeland' was going to be 'Homeland.' I just did it because it was a terrific script, and they pitched me the story line, and I was like, 'Huh, that's interesting.'

Some actors - myself included - like to know where your character's going: you like to know what the arc is for the character so that you can plan where you're going to give beats for this, that, and the other and give the audience what they want. But on 'Homeland,' you do the opposite.

There are jobs that come along in your life, if you're lucky enough, that elevate you in a considerable way. And 'Homeland' was definitely one of those jobs.

I did some theatre. I had some smaller roles in a couple TV shows and films. I used to think I did a lot of acting, but my 'career' started when I started 'Homeland'.

One good thing about TV Land is you're always surrounded by people who know what they're doing, in terms of your fellow actors.
