Showtime has renewed its drama series Homeland for three more seasons and has greenlit a new series with Jamie Foxx, Showtime CEO David Nevins said Wednesday.

Nevins, stating the network is in “the best competitive position that it’s ever been in,” said Homeland will return for season six, seven and eight as part of a new deal with series producer Twentieth Century Fox. Showtime will move the launch of its season six from its typical October period to January 2017, he said.

Nevins said that Homeland “remains our flagship series” and has proven to reinvent itself  with every season. “Its not on a straight character trajectory path that changes from season to season,” he said. “It has an open ended expiration date.”

The network has also greenlit a new comedy series with Jamie Foxx dubbed White Famous. The series will take a comic look at what it takes for an African-American comedian to become accepted by a broad audience. 

Nevins also said the network has also picked up a drama series, Purity, starring Daniel Craig as part of its original programming strategy that will showcase a new series launch virutally every month of the year. 

The news came at around the same time that Starz said it greenlit two more seasons of original series Outlander.

HBO will telecast a live concert to honor military veterans on Veteran’s Day (Nov. 11).

The inaugural Concert For Valor concert, hosted by HBO and coffee company Starbucks, will honor the courage and sacrifice of America’s veterans and their families, the network said. The concert, which will take place on the National Mall in Washington D.C. and will look to raise awareness for veterans service organizations, will feature performances from such stars as Eminem, Jamie Foxx, Dave Grohl, Metallica, John Oliver, Rihanna (pictured), Bruce Springsteen, Carrie Underwood and Zac Brown Band, as well as special appearances by Meryl Streep, Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg.

HBO will open its feed to affiliates to allow non-HBO subscribers to view the special, said network officials.

“We are honored to play a small role to help raise awareness and support for our service men and women,” said  HBO chairman and CEO Richard Plepler in a statement. “Their immeasurable sacrifice deserves our nation’s gratitude. This event will not only celebrate their service, but help remind Americans of the many challenges they face on and off the battlefield. We are delighted to join with Starbucks in our mutual effort to pay tribute to our veterans and those currently serving in the military.”
