Carrie Mathison (Claire Danes) will find herself working with a new FBI special agent when "Homeland" returns for season 6.

Variety exclusively revealed that "Nurse Jackie" alum Dominic Fumusa had been tapped to portray the role of FBI Special Agent Ray Conlin in the upcoming season of the critically lauded serial political thriller.

Yet aside from the character's name, Showtime has yet to release other information about Fumusa's role in the series. The number of episodes that he will appear in is also undetermined at the moment.

Fumusa will join Elizabeth Marvel and former "Prison Break" star Robert Knepper as the new cast members of the show. Marvel will portray the role of the president-elect of the United States, Elizabeth Keane, while Knepper will portray the recurring role of Department of Defense representative General Jamie McClendon.

Meanwhile, Israel Hayom revealed that Showtime is looking to cast several Israeli actors to portray various roles in the series.

According to the report, the Golden Globe-winning TV drama will introduce two female Mossad agents who disguise themselves as call girls, a Mossad technician, a Palestinian police officer, an Emirati cab driver, and an Iranian entrepreneur when the series returns for its sixth season.

The report also mentioned that the scenes that will feature the Israeli actors will be shot in Morocco from Oct. 14 to 21.

The plot for "Homeland" season 6 revealed that Carrie will return to the US from Berlin. According to the synopsis posted by Indie Wire, "Season six picks up several months later and finds Carrie Mathison back on American soil, living in Brooklyn, New York. She has begun working at a foundation whose efforts are to provide aid to Muslims living in the U.S. Season 6 will tackle the after-effects of the U.S. presidential election, with the entire season taking place between election day and the inauguration."

"Homeland" season 6 returns on Showtime on Sunday, January 15, 2017.
