“Moonlight” and “Hidden Figures” alum Janelle Monae has been tapped to star in the second season of Amazon’s “Homecoming,” the studio announced on Tuesday.
Monae will succeed Julia Roberts in the Sam Esmail-created drama series, playing “a tenacious woman who finds herself floating in a canoe, with no memory of how she got there — or even who she is.”
An adaption of Gimlet Media’s podcast of the same name, “Homecoming” Season 1 centered on Roberts’ character, Heidi Bergman, a caseworker at a support center helping soldiers transition back to civilian life. Roberts, who earned a Golden Globe nomination for her depicition, remains on board as an executive producer for Season 2.
