Homecoming is Amazon’s original American psychological thriller web television based on the podcast of the same name created by Eli Horowitz and Micah Bloomberg, which was telecasted on November 2, 2018. The show is directed by Sam Esmail, starring Roberts, Bobby Cannavale, Stephen James, Shea Whigham, Alex Karpovsky, and Sissy Spacek.
The show was planned for 2nd seasons, out of which season 1 has already aired, and season 2 is currently under development. The second season will deviate from the podcast and will have a new story.
The second season will be directed by Kyle Patrick Alvarez and will star Janelle Monae and Chris Cooper with Stephan James and Hong Chau returning from the first season.
Heidi Bergman plays the role of a therapist who deals with rehabilitation of PTSD suffering military personnel. She medicates them to the point where they lost their memory to get rid of the trauma. At the final episode therapist and Walter have a talk which seems more than chit-chat.
What, When and Who of the upcoming season!!
There is no official news from neither the makers or Amazon. Further information will be updated here. Stay connected!
In season two, Julia Roberts will not be appearing in her role as announced by the team, as she had a contract only for season 1 of the show, but she will remain in the ream as an executive producer.
With details of the second season being unknown just like the show, it is not clear if the remaining cast will re-appear on the screen for season 2, including Stephan James as Walter, Bobby Cannavale as Heidi’s boss Colin Belfast, Shea Whigham as Thomas Carrasco from the Department of Defence, Alex Karpovsky as Homecoming employee Craig, Sissy Spacek as Heidi’s mother Ellen Bergman, Marianne Jean-Baptiste as Walter’s mother Gloria Cruz, Dermot Mulroney as Heidi’s on-off boyfriend Anthony, Hong Chau as Geist employee Audrey Temple and Jeremy Allen White as veteran Shrier.
As season 2 is out of track i.e., it is o more from the podcast as season 1 was, it is hard to predict what is going to happen in the new season. All we know is that Julia will not appear further in the show. All we can do is to wait for the new season to air and enjoy the thriller.
