NotLinda Interviews Damianista about Fan Fun with Damian Lewis

Damianista’s note: Today is my birthday, and I thought it’d be the perfect moment to reshare this interview my blogmate NotlLinda did with me back in 2024. A lot of you follow our work but don’t always get the behind-the-scenes version of who we are as people, so if you’re curious to get to know me a bit better, this one’s for you. Thanks for being here!

Dear Damianista!

Thanks so much for the gift of Damian! I enjoyed your interview with him and that gave me a fun idea for Fan Fun! I’ve composed interview questions for YOU!

I’m certain we fans are also curious about the woman who curates the website.

So here is my interview “Fan Fun With Damianista.”

Eleven Years with Damian Lewis

Eleven years.

If you had told me on January 5, 2015, that Fan Fun with Damian Lewis would still be here eleven years later — alive, thriving, and growing — I would probably have smiled, thanked you… and secretly thought you were being very optimistic.

And yet, here we are.

Because while I may not have imagined eleven years, I do know myself well enough to say this: I persist. I am infinitely loyal. And when I love something — or someone — I show up. Every day.

That, in many ways, is the story of Fan Fun with Damian Lewis. Continue reading “Eleven Years with Damian Lewis”

TOP Damian Lewis Moments 2025: Homeland Came Back To Life – And So Did Brody

“I loved doing “Homeland,” I loved playing Brody. I’m extremely proud of who we all created together. I think he’s a tragic hero for our time. He himself embodies a cautionary tale, going right back to the beginning, about sending young men to war and the damage it can do. He had brief moments of happiness and glory, but was essentially a very unhappy figure for three years.” – Damian Lewis

One of the biggest — and honestly most surprising — Damian Lewis moments of 2025 didn’t come from a red carpet, a film premiere, or a BAFTA nomination. It came from Netflix. When Homeland, a show that ended in 2018, dropped globally this year, it suddenly climbed into Netflix’s Top 10 like it had never gone away. My inbox filled with messages. Social media lit up. People were arguing about Carrie again, bashing about Dana again, screaming about Brody again. And here on Fan Fun, something magical happened — our old Homeland posts from 2015, 2016, 2017 suddenly came alive with clicks and comments from brand new viewers and fans who returned after a decade. Twelve years after Nicholas Brody left Homeland forever, he is still very popular. And so I officially declare this revival one of Damian Lewis’ top moments of 2025, because what other actor has a character so powerful, so haunting, so emotionally catastrophic that he rises from the dead to ruin us all over again? 🙂 Continue reading “TOP Damian Lewis Moments 2025: Homeland Came Back To Life – And So Did Brody”

Throwback Thursday to Damian Lewis’ Last Day on Homeland Set

Nicholas Brody left us forever twelve years ago marking Homeland Season 3 finale as the most horrific hour in the history of television for the “Brody widows” among us – a very select group of women! –  who did not want to get used to the idea of Homeland without him! We were simply devastated the day Brody died in Season 3 and extremely ecstatic the day Brody came back for 5 minutes in Season 4. And while most of us have been able to move on to Bobby Axelrod and Henry VIII and Nicholas Elliott, and recently Lord Davenport, while carrying Nicholas Brody in our hearts, a world without Brody still hurts.

Watching Homeland Seasons 1-2-3 Twelve Years Later – Part II

Thank you all so much for reading my thoughts about rewatching Homeland Seasons 1–2-3…  twelve years later! I’m over the moon with how many of you checked out the post — though honestly, I can’t say I’m shocked. Homeland is suddenly back in Netflix’s Top 10, seven years after the series finale, so clearly we’re all finding our ways back to our favorite show together. I’ve been getting emails and messages from fans, and even our old Homeland posts from the early days of Fan Fun are getting tons of clicks again. It feels like a full-on revival… I am so happy!

As I told you in last week’s post, I have so much to say about my rewatch that I was not able to fit it all into one post — so welcome to Part II! Continue reading “Watching Homeland Seasons 1-2-3 Twelve Years Later – Part II”
