Amazon Prime Video’s sci-fi thriller ‘Homecoming,’ toplined by Julia Roberts, quickly became one of the platform’s most popular original series upon its 2018 debut.
Also starring ‘If Beale Street Could Talk’ star Stephan James, the show’s gripping storyline tells of a secret government compound that is using American soldiers as test subjects for experimental PTSD therapy. With Roberts expected to be absent for its sophomore season, singer/actress Janelle Monáe is set to fill in as ‘Homecoming’s female lead.
Ahead of its May 22 premiere, look inside to see the official trailer:
Monáe isn’t the only newcomer to ‘Homecoming.’ She joins the likes of Academy Award winner Chris Cooper, Emmy winner Joan Cusack, and more.

Janelle Monáe makes all the right moves when it comes to music, movies, and now televised series! everything that she’s apart of is… STELLAR! she’s a woman of wise intellect and great activism. can’t wait to watch Homecoming!!!
P.S. Stephan James is soooooo damn fine!!!!!!
Janelle Monae is a superstar to me. As much as she gives, she still maintains a kind of mystery.
