Sam Esmail likes to play with perspective and morality in Mr. Robot and it appears he's found a way to do it with even more intensity in Homecoming, which stars Julia Roberts. The full, mind-tweaking trailer for the Prime Video series is online and you can watch it below...
Esmail adapted the show from the podcast created by Eli Horowitz and Micah Bloomberg. Roberts plays Heidi Bergman, a caseworker at the Homecoming Transitional Support Center, a facility helping soldiers transition back to civilian life. Walter Cruz (Stephan James) is one of these soldiers, eager to begin the next phase of his life. Overseeing Heidi and the facility is Colin Belfast (Bobby Cannavale), an ambitious company man whose manic demands point to questionable motives.
Four years later, Heidi has started a new life, living with her mother (Sissy Spacek) and working as a small-town waitress, when a Department of Defense auditor (Shea Whigham) comes to her with questions about why she left the Homecoming facility. Heidi begins to realize that there’s a whole other story behind the story she’s been telling herself....
What is true, and what's not will all be revealed (well, probably) when the show starts streaming on 2 November. If you have fish as pets, you shouldn't let them watch it.
