Veteran TV writer-producer Henry Bromell, an executive producer on Showtime’s acclaimed series Homeland, has died of a heart attack. He was 66. Bromell went to the hospital yesterday afternoon after not feeling well, and suffered the heart attack there. He had been a member of Homeland‘s all-star writing-producing staff since the beginning of the Fox21-produced CIA drama, first as a consulting producer, and shared in its best series Emmy win last year. In his work on the suspense drama, Bromell drew on some personal experience — his father worked for the CIA. He wrote one of the most memorable episode from Season 2, the interrogation hour Q&A which showcased series stars Claire Danes and Damian Lewis and drew record viewership in October. “Henry was a profoundly decent and generous man. A great writer and a great friend”, Homeland executive producers Alex Gansa and Howard Gordon said today in a statement. “No matter how crazy things got, when he was in the room, you knew everything was going to be OK. Everybody here at Homeland is grieving, and we will miss him beyond  words.” Added 20th Century Fox TV/Fox 21 in a statement: “We were lucky to work with Henry on and off for the past 18 years. He was a supremely talented writer and as kind and warm a person as you could ever meet. He will be deeply missed at the studio and on Homeland. Our hearts and prayers go out to his wife and children.” READ MORE »
