Monáe will star in this second season, playing Jackie, a military veteran, who wakes up with no memories stranded in a rowboat. “I knew something was wrong with me, but I couldn’t explain it to anyone. It was like the people around me were keeping a secret, like we were in a movie, and everybody knew we were in a movie except for me.”

Monáe will be stepping in for Julia Roberts, who will remain on the project as an executive producer. Stephan James and Hong Chau will reprise their roles as Walter and Audrey and Chris Cooper and Joan Cusack will join the cast. 

“It’s doing something that is unique in the television space. When I read these episodes, I was like, ‘Oh wow, this is still going to have a very special quality and take everyone in an unexpected place.’ It’s even more elevated this season — and even more suspenseful,” Monáe said about Homecoming.

The second season of Homecoming will be released on May 22 on Amazon Prime.

And while many things have changed and disappeared, we’re thrilled that the Woodstock Festival is still around!

Originally held on a dairy farm in Bethel near New York in 1969, this year will mark the festival’s 50th anniversary.

The 1969 line-up included The Grateful Dead, Janis Joplin, The Moody Blues, The Who, and Joe Cocker.

Jay Z and The Killers have been confirmed as the two headline acts for the 2019 event, which will be held in Watkins Glen, New York. They will be joined by Miley Cyrus, The Black Keys, Imagine Dragons, Chance the Rapper, Halsey, The Lumineers, Akon, Brandi Carlile, and Janelle Monae.

Some acts which played the original festival will also be on stage including Santana, while Arlo Guthrie will be at an event in the original location of Bethel the same weekend.

Woodstock 2019 will take place from the 16th to the 18th of August.

The 32 year old has signed on to star in the live-action adaptation of Lady and the Tramp.

The Disney animation originally came out in 1955 and tells the story of a female American Cocker Spaniel named Lady who lives with a refined, upper-middle-class family, and a male stray mongrel called the Tramp.

The pair are set to be voiced by Westworld actress Tessa Thompson and Justin Theroux of Maniac.

Janelle will take on the role of pound dog Peg, who was voiced by another singer in the original, Peggy Lee.

The rest of the cast includes Ugly Betty actress Ashley Jensen as Scottish terrier Jackie, while Doctor Strange star Benedict Wong will play English bulldog Bull.

Charlie Bean, who directed The Lego Ninjago Movie, will helm the project.

Get the spaghetti and meatballs ready!
