Here’s something quick to watch before you tuck yourselves in for the night. It’s Julia Roberts in the first trailer for Homecoming. Yes, yes – the fictional psychological thriller that made the hairs on every single part of your body stand up has a TV series adaption by Amazon Prime Video.

The trailer, like about a gazillion others, was unleashed at Comic-Con San Diego 2018 by original podcast creators Eli Horowitz and Micah Bloomberg, who also adapted the series.
Roberts stars as caseworker Heidi Bergman, who works at an experimental facility that helps war veterans transition back to civilian life. Four years after leaving the facility Bergman receives a phone call from a Department of Defence auditor (Shea Whigham) questioning Bergman as to why she left and in doing so, unravels the curious story she’s always been telling herself.
Stephan James stars as Walter Cruz, a soldier at the facility while Bobby Cannavale plays Colin Belfast, Bergman’s supervisor.
We don’t get a whole lot in this teaser, just creepy pineapples in a creepy kitchen, a creepy office building, a creepy bedroom, and a fish dying.
