Amazon's critically acclaimed sci-fi series returns on May 22.
Amazon has released the first teaser trailer for the second season of Homecoming ahead of its May 22nd premiere. At the center of the ensuing mystery is the renown pop star.
The show, an adaptation of the podcast of the same name, saw Julia Roberts engage in a Hitchcockian tale of paranoia and government corruption during its first season.
Now, the first teaser for Season 2 shows us the sense of unease remains even if we aren’t clear on what the story is, exactly. The 30-second teaser introduces us to our new leading lady, as she wakes up in a canoe in the center of a lake. From there the trailer gives us nothing more than glimpses of different characters, two of whom were in Homecoming Season 1: Stephan James and Hong Chau.
“You need to do what you think is right,” Monáe says in a voice-over. “But you must protect yourself because nobody else will.”
Like Roberts, executive producer Sam Esmail is also stepping away from this season. However, creators Eli Horowitz and Micah Bloomberg, who created the Gimlet podcast it’s based on, remain on board as showrunners.
