The exact amount will be based on the number of Virginia workers hired, Virginia goods and services purchased, and deliverables, including Virginia tourism promotions. <em>Homeland<\/em>&#8216;s seventh season will premiere on Showtime in 2018.<\/p>\n<p>Alex Gansa, showrunner and executive producer of\u00a0<em>Homeland<\/em>, said:<em>\u00a0<\/em>\u201cWe&#8217;re thrilled to bring the production of\u00a0<em>Homeland<\/em> to the great state of Virginia. Its cities and neighborhoods and people will surely provide a rich backdrop for our story, and we in turn aim to provide a small but hopefully significant boost to the local economy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are delighted to welcome this outstanding drama to the Commonwealth,\u201d said Virginia Governor Terry McAuliffe. \u201cThe film production industry is a significant economic driver for our Commonwealth. With every new film or television series that comes to Virginia, this thriving industry continues creating jobs, generating tourist activity and building momentum for even more great new projects. Having hosted shows like <em>Turn: Washington\u2019s Spies<\/em>, <em>Mercy Street<\/em>\u00a0and now\u00a0<em>Homeland<\/em>, it is clear that Virginia is a premier television production location, and I look forward to the success of this series here in Virginia.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Virginia Secretary of Commerce and Trade Todd Haymore said, \u201cWe are pleased to host the production of\u00a0<em>Homeland<\/em>, and enthusiastic about what a show of this size will contribute to our local economies. The Commonwealth\u2019s film production industry is a fast-growing sector of the new Virginia economy, with a total economic impact of almost $616 million, in addition to supporting nearly 4,000 full-time jobs and providing more than $24 million in state and local taxes in 2015. I am confident\u00a0<em>Homeland<\/em> will contribute millions more to our Virginia businesses, big and small, and provide good-paying jobs to our industry workers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Virginia Film Office Director Andy Edmunds noted, \u201cA television series is a gift that keeps on giving for the production industry in the Commonwealth. A series of\u00a0<em>Homeland<\/em>&#8216;s caliber and popularity gives twice\u2014both during production and then for years after, in the form of film tourism. Having\u00a0<em>Homeland<\/em> call the Commonwealth home is another big win for Virginia.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Showtime and Fox 21 Television Studios have revealed that Homeland will move to Virginia for production of the show\u2019s seventh season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":350,"featured_media":7996,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[70],"tags":[100,172,166],"class_list":["post-7995","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-fox-21-television-studios","tag-homeland","tag-showtime","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 -
