About to arrive
Forthcoming describes something about to appear or happen: Her forthcoming novel releases in March.
Applied to people, it means willing to share information openly: He wasn't very forthcoming about his past.
The two senses connect through the idea of things coming forward—whether events approaching in time or information offered freely.
