Black Mirror season 6 officially happening at Netflix (Details here)
By Diana Nosa
It looks like Stranger Things isn’t the only Netflix original series making a comeback after being on hiatus for years on end!
At long last, Black Mirror a.k.a Netflix subscribers’ favorite sci-fi anthology series is finally coming back to our screens, and, like millions all over the world, we absolutely cannot contain our excitement.
June 2019 was the last time fans received new episodes of the Netflix series. While season 5’s three stories about virtual reality games, a rideshare kidnapper, and weird dolls that are a little more than just plastic and batteries were wickedly entertaining, they weren’t enough to satisfy the burning desire for a new season. After all, Black Mirror is a show that keeps us on our toes every year. New episodes aren’t just a want, they are a need.
Fortunately, we no longer have to wait for news of a season 6 renewal. It’s already here! Read on to learn everything we know so far about Black Mirror season 6.
Black Mirror season 6 synopsis
Variety reports that, as of now, the creators are keeping the ins and outs of each episode on the down-low. However, the media outlet did report that the masterminds behind season 6 will treat each episode as “an individual film,” which could be a telltale sign that newer episodes being more than an hour-long will be the new norm for the original series.
Black Mirror season 6 cast and crew
Currently, it is not known if Charlie Brooker and Annabel Jones, the masterminds behind Black Mirror, will return for season 6. Brooker and Jones departed from the show’s production company, House of Tomorrow (under Endemol Shine Group), in January 2020 for undisclosed reasons.
However, knowing that Netflix invested a lump sum of resources into Brooker and Jones in July 2020, it’s possible the two may return once more.
Black Mirror season 6 episode count
Black Mirror season 6’s official episode count is not yet confirmed. However, it has been revealed that the upcoming season will have more episodes than season 5. How many episodes this will be, though, is anyone’s guess. (Hopefully, more than 4!)
Now that Black Mirror is back again, we’re sure to periodically receive new content from the Netflix series, so stay tuned for more exciting updates about Black Mirror season 6!
