Black Mirror fans rejoice - or prepare to "lose your mind" and "lose your reality," as promises a newly released trailer for Charlie Brooker's dystopian sci-fi series. Netflix released the first previews of the new installment on Thursday, teasing "six electrifying stories" premiering on 10 April.
The trailer continues Black Mirror's trademark uneasy, foreboding tone, previewing several new entries in a universe of tech gone awry. New stars include Peter Capaldi, Issa Rae, Paul Giamatti, Rashida Jones, Tracee Ellis Ross, Emma Corrin, Awkwafina, Chris ODowd and more.
And breaking from precedent, the anthology series will revisit at least a few previous stories in the new chapter, as the trailer shows Cristin Milioti and other characters from then standout season 4 episode USS Callister continue their virtual voyage. Milioti will reprise her role as Nanette Cole, a computer programmer unwittingly roped into a video game by her sinister boss Robert Daly (Jesse Plemons).
After season 5 premiered in 2019, Black Mirror went on extended hiatus, returning in June 2023 to warm reviews. The sixth season featured star turns by Salma Hayek, Aaron Paul, Myha'la , Paapa Essiedu and others.
Series creator Brooker returned as executive producer for the new season, alongside Jessica Rhoade and Annabel Jones.
