After experimenting with an interactive episode (Bandersnatch) earlier this year, Netflix is finally ready to deliver the next season of Black Mirror. The sci-fi anthology series, which “explores a twisted, high-tech near-future where humanity's greatest innovations and darkest instincts collide,” is set to return for its fifth season this summer.

Black Mirror: Season 5 will be comprised of three new stories “about the future we should have seen coming.” While each episode in Black Mirror typically stands on its own, it seems this season will have an overarching theme that explores humans’ basic need to feel connected with others, and the impact technology can have on marriage, self-esteem, fame, social media and mental health.

A trailer was released alongside the premiere date announcement, teasing the three intriguing stories and highlighting a star-studded cast that includes Anthony Mackie, Miley Cyrus, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, Topher Grace, Damson Idris, Andrew Scott, Nicole Beharie, Pom Klementieff, Angourie Rice, Madison Davenport and Ludi Lin.



Three new stories about the future we should have seen coming.

The cast involved again seems pretty cool, so I might watch it (first might finish season 3 and 4)

@MalseMarcel - If you liked 1 and 2 you're in for a treat with 3 and 4. They're so good (not all episode, but most)

Love Black Mirror. Disappointed its only three episodes, but I guess Bandersnatch may be to blame for that, but still really excited!

@MrDandy - I agree, but I'd rather 3 really great episodes than 6 mediocre ones (not that Season 4 was mediocre by any means). I just don't want them to push out crap episodes just for number count.

@MattIsForReal - True that

Everything looks really cool.....besides Miley Cyrus.

Although, that street fighter shit she seems to be getting into looks dope, can't lie.

@BlackBeltJones - Isn't that Pom in that scene?

Also, what's wrong with Miley? I don't think she's weird and insane anymore..

@Nebula - I loved weird insane Miley.
GhostDog
GhostDog - 5/15/2019, 8:06 AM
@Nebula - oh shit it is Pom. Nice!
GhostDog
GhostDog - 5/15/2019, 8:10 AM
@Nebula - she's pretty two-faced in my opinion. Not even about her being weird, that's fine. Her career now is a giant contradiction to a "particular period" of her career and she disowned it in a way that was insulting and unaware.

She seems nice enough outside of that.
Nebula
Nebula - 5/15/2019, 8:37 AM
@BlackBeltJones - I mean, that's the premise of her episode. And we're absolutely going to be sympathising with her since I highly doubt she'd agree to be in it otherwise.
GhostDog
GhostDog - 5/15/2019, 8:41 AM
@Nebula - I didn't heart anything about the premise. Will be interesting to see I guess.

@BlackBeltJones - From Variety's article on it..
"Cyrus appears to be taking part in a meta storyline, as she portrays a performer with with thousands of fans who appears to have undergone a transformation in order to rise to a higher level of fame."

Nice. Hopefully it makes up for Bandersnatch. I didn't even finish it, it was so boring.
MrDandy

@THEDARKKNIGHT1939 - I thoroughly enjoyed Bandersnatch

Black Mirror has been trash since Netflix bought it. Proof? Miley Cyrus was able to get on the show! She's a terrible actress, and an even worse singer, there's literally no reason a show of this caliber needs her other than getting more viewers. The creators artistic integrity is gone. I'm done.

suitekid - 5/15/2019, 5:13 PM
@Procyon - I like how you think the artistic integrity is gone because Miley Cyrus is on here and you don't like her. I'd argue it would really be gone if they didn't cast her because of people like you instead of doing what they want to.

Wow! Loved the trailer! great cast also, can't wait to see Pom, i've never saw her in anything besides GotG.
Miley it's not a problem, i also never watched her acting but Black Mirror has great directors and writers, so i think her episode may turn out really well. I'll give it a chance

This cast is crazy good.



My favorite Black Mirror episodes:

1. Hang the DJ
2. The Entire History of You
3. San Junipero
4. White Christmas
5. Nosedive
MrDandy
MrDandy - 5/15/2019, 6:26 PM
@L0RDbuckethead - Close to mine. I'd go:

1. White Christmas
2. Fifteen Million Merits
3. San Junipero
4. The Entire History of You
5. USS Callister

Hang the DJ is great too and probably my #6.

L0RDbuckethead - 5/15/2019, 6:47 PM
@MrDandy - Man, I really wanted to include Fifteen Million Merits over Nosedive, but I just couldn't. That's a great one, though.
