Stoll, who starred on Netflix original series House of Cards with Kevin Spacey and Robin Wright, will play the CIA’s station chief in Pakistan, Sandy Bachman. The Sopranos actress Robins will step into the series regular role of Martha Boyd, U.S. ambassador to Pakistan on the Showtime drama.

Sandy is billed as a young star in the CIA, who could see himself climbing the ranks even further in the near future. Martha, meanwhile, is described as, “professional and put together, with a ship-to-ship voice and the personality to match,” according to Entertainment Weekly.

In addition to House of Cards, Stoll is known for playing Ernest Hemingway in Woody Allen’s Midnight in Paris and more recently for his part in The Normal Heart. Boyd’s other TV work includes Bored to Death and Law & Order, while she’s been on the big screen in Planes, Trains & Automobiles.

For season four, Homeland is shifting the bulk of the action from Washington, D.C., to the Middle East, where Carrie Mathison (Claire Danes) now serves as the CIA’s station chief. In addition to Danes, Mandy Patinkin, Rupert Friend and Nazanin Boniadi are all returning for the fourth season.
