Netflix’s Black Mirror is returning for its sixth season and promises to be their “most unpredictable, unclassifiable and unexpected season yet.”
The Emmy-winning show’s creator, writer and executive director, Charlie Brooker, claims to have even surprised himself with the sixth season, saying that “I’ve always felt that Black Mirror should feature stories that are entirely distinct from one another, and keep surprising people — and myself — or else what’s the point? It should be a series that can’t be easily defined, and can keep reinventing itself.”
Netflix dropped the upcoming season’s 1.5-minute-long teaser on Wednesday, with a cautionary notice that “You’ve been wondering. You’ve been waiting. You’ve been warned.”
The teaser revealed a June release date as well as a star-studded cast that includes: Aaron Paul, Anjana Vasan, Annie Murphy, Auden Thornton, Ben Barnes, Clara Rugaard, Daniel Portman, Danny Ramirez, David Shields, Himesh Patel, John Hannah, Josh Hartnett, Kate Mara, Michael Cera, Monica Dolan, Myha’la Herrold, Paapa Essiedu, Rob Delaney, Rory Culkin, Salma Hayek Pinault, Samuel Blenkin and Zazie Beetz.
The teaser gives viewers plenty of glimpses into Black Mirror’s dystopian world, with Schitt Creek’s Murphy losing her temper, Thornton and Hartnett dancing in a living room, and Hayek mysteriously asking, “Oh do you?”

This season seems to be even more violent than past ones, with a noticeably higher production value. Brooker claims that season 6, as well as featuring stories that “are all still tonally Black Mirror through-and-through,” will “stretch the parameters of what ‘a Black Mirror episode’ even is.” The episodes will reportedly feature “crazy swings and more variety than ever before,” including some Brooker had “previously sworn blind the show would never do.”
The characters appear to be in as much disbelief as Black Mirror viewers usually are, with one character sitting on a couch, seemingly watching TV and exclaiming, “What the f— is this? How the f— is this?”
Brooker says that he “can’t wait for people to binge their way through it all and hope they enjoy it — especially the bits they shouldn’t.”
