Season 2 of Tyrant premiered on FX and continues with an all-new episode. Showrunner Howard Gordon dishes on whether Barry Al-Fayeed (Adam Rayner), Molly Al-Fayeed (Jennifer Finnigan) and Jamal Al-Fayeed (Ashraf Barhom) "too broken" to survive together?

In our MStars Interview, discussing with her the raunchy comedy, A Bet's A Bet, with husband, Jonathan Silverman, co-director Jennifer Finnigan was just on her way to work on Tyrant, "I start season two of Tyrant. We're filming in Budapest this year. I take the occasional trip to Morocco, or Turkey, to get some exteriors. I leave in about a month. That's coming up fast."

As we previously mentioned, four months have taken place after the events of the first season finale. The coup orchestrated by Barry against his brother failed. After landing himself in prison, Barry is now at his brother's mercy. While Barry's American family is still nearby, his wife Molly (Finnigan) attempts to remind him of his true mission. What Barry is sacrificing matters a great deal to the people of Abbudin, but will he pay the ultimate price?

In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Homeland's Howard Gordon discusses what's in store for Barry, "The turning point for me was finding an organic way to credibly put Barry in this place without making it look so foreboding that he'd be foolish. We did it as gracefully - clumsily though it may have appeared - as we could. But once Barry actually has his sea legs and realizes, 'I can't help my brother. He is too broken'' to the time he killed the sheik and begins to insinuate himself not only into the palace, but into usurping his brother - that's where the story kind of found its own momentum. It became easier and more fun to write, and that's continued to be the feeling in season two."

Gordon adds, "I think this year, by telling the story we're telling, we really get a deeper and more multifaceted exploration of this fictional country we've created - its problems and its beauty."

Season 2 of Tyrant airs Tuesdays at 10 pm on FX.
