Claire Danes’ Sexy, ‘Homeland’-Inspired ‘Vogue’ Shoot Revealed

Claire Danes steals the cover of the August issue of Vogue all while seemingly channeling a more fashionable, (but just as fierce!), version of Carrie Mathinson from Homeland. For the cover, the 34-year-old star is wrapped in a leather Burberry Prorsum trench coat — and while it’s a far cry from Carrie’s pantsuits, she still looks just as captivating as she does when she’s acting in Homeland.

Claire Danes’ ‘Vogue’ Shoot:

The character of Carrie is fueled by her passion to protect her country on the hit show — and her conflicting feelings for Sgt. Brody often get in the way of her job. For the August issue, Claire looks cool and confident while posing along her co-star, Damian Lewis, who plays Sgt. Nick Brody on the hit drama.

If you’re a major fan of the show your head might explode over the passion and tension in the shoot. In fact, if it weren’t for the high-fashion frocks we would think these shots were stills from the highly anticipated third season — although I don’t think we’ll ever see the day when Carrie rocks a backless Calvin Klein frock in the interrogation room! (Although it would be kind of major).
